Introduction Message
Hi XXXX,

Do you know how an invitation can affect an editor's activity? An editor will edit 70% more if invited to a WikiProject, while will edit 40% less if nobody invites her/him, simply in a two-week observation period! Our system generated a list of potential new editors for your project. They may be interested in collaborating with your project members on your project's articles, and please reach out to them!

As you will notice, the list contains both experienced editors and newcomers. Both are valuable for Wikipedia and your project. Please go ahead and introduce your project to them, and point them to some project tasks to start with. We also provide a template invitation message to make it easier to contact the potential new editors. Just click the invite link to write the invitation message.

Newcomer Message
Algorithm Detail: Select editors who registered and made their first edits in the past three (an adjustable parameter) days, and their first edit was on the article within the scope of the project.

Editor Summary (Shown): XXX just joined Wikipedia and made the first edit on an article within the scope of your project, Article:XXX.

Explanation (Mouseover): The first edit is a strong indication on editor's interest. They might be interested in working on your project. Although we don't know much about them yet, they have the potential to develop to a dedicated Wikipedian. Please welcome these newbies and help them onboard!

Rule/Topic-based Message
Algorithm Detail: Rank editors by the number of edits they made on project's articles in their most 500 edits.

Editor Summary (Shown): XXX made 126 out of their most recent 500 edits to articles within the scope of your project.

Explanation (Mouseover): These editors might not be aware of your project. Their recent edits on project-related articles indicate their interest to your project and their good editing records. Studies showed that editors with strong interest to the project will contribute more and stay longer! Invite them to your project. They will have the opportunity to contribute more!

Bonds-based Message Version1 (Current)
Algorithm Detail: Rank editors who made at least one edit on project's articles in the past month, by the number of edits they made on project members' user talk pages.

Editor Summary (Shown): XXX made couple edits on your project articles and had connections with your project members! They posted multiple messages on the user talk pages of a number of your project members.

Explanation (Mouseover): These editors might not be aware of your project. Their recent edits indicate their good editing records and personal connections to your project. Studies have found that editors with these kinds of connections (i.e., editors who have bonds-based attachment) to project members tend to edit more and stay longer in the project!

Bonds-based Message Version2 (Proposed)
Algorithm Detail: Rank editors who made at least one edit on project's articles in the past month, by the number of edits they made on project members' user talk pages that contain a link to a project article (i.e., indicating that the editor was discussing project content with the project members in a personal manner).

Editor Summary (Shown): XXX made several edits to your project articles. They also have connections with your project members: they posted multiple messages on the user talk pages of some of your project members to discuss article details.

Explanation (Mouseover): These editors might not be aware of your project. Their recent edits indicate their good editing records and personal connections to your project. Studies have found that editors with these kinds of connections to project members tend to edit more and stay longer in the project!

UUCF-based Message
Editor Summary (Shown): XXX edited articles similar to articles your project members edited. For example, XXX and your project member XXX (one of the similar members) edited 5 of the same articles in their most recent 500 edits.

Explanation (Mouseover): These editors might not be aware of your project. Their recent edits that are similar to your project members indicate the common interest they share with your project members. Their recent edits also show their good editing records. Invite them to your project. They will have the opportunity to contribute more!
