The Foundation's Peter Gehres is copresenting the analytics presentation "How Wikipedia Doubled its Online Fundraising" this Saturday. If you're at TechWeek, he and other Wikimedians want to meet with you and talk shop! http://schedule.techweek.com/event/003fc017e0530c08eb34f08033c50f86 Saturday June 23, 2012 4:00pm - 4:45pm @ 1 - Main Stage (222 Merchandise Mart Plaza, Chicago, IL) "In 2010, online donations to Wikipedia more than doubled, from $7.5 million to $16 million and, in 2011, increased another 33%. Much of this increase was driven by user research conducted in Chicago. Design researcher Billy Belchev from Webitects will get into the nitty-gritty of form design and testing, user interviews. Do one-step forms work better than multi-step? Does PayPal help or hurt your numbers? What are the effect of “Jimmy” banners? The answers are based on data from the fifth most trafficked website in the world." -- Sumana Harihareswara Engineering Community Manager Wikimedia Foundation _______________________________________________ Wiki-research-l mailing list Wiki-research-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wiki-research-l
