Music of Minnesota
Certainly, there's no ownership of articles on wiki, so please do make whatever changes you like. Keep in mind that they must be cited to reliable sources, and they should fit into the article appropriately (i.e. Music of Minnesota shouldn't be much longer in total than it is now, so if you're going to add more info, it might be better to make a subarticle of some sort - Music of Minnesota ought to have more about non-recent stuff, I think). Anyway, also be sure you're putting information in context, not just a list of names, but rather a description of choral music and its development (for example). 00:17, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Research survey invitation
Greetings Brent Michael Davids-

My name is Randall Livingstone, and I am a doctoral student at the University of Oregon, studying digital media and online community. I am posting to invite you to participate in my research study exploring the work of Wikipedia editors who are members of WikiProject: Countering Systemic Bias. The online survey should take 20 to 25 minutes to complete and can be found here:

Your responses will help online communication researchers like me to better understand the collaborations, challenges, and purposeful work of Wikipedia editors like you. In addition, at the end of the survey you will have the opportunity to express your interest in a follow-up online interview with the researcher.

This research project has been reviewed and approved by the Wikimedia Research Committee as well as the Office for Protection of Human Subjects at the University of Oregon. For a detailed description of the project, please visit its Meta page. This survey is voluntary, and your confidentiality will be protected. You will have the choice of using your Wikipedia User Name during the research or creating a unique pseudonym. You may skip any question you choose, and you may withdraw at any time. By completing the survey, you are providing consent to participate in the research.

If you have any questions about the study, please contact me via my Talk Page (UOJComm) or via email. My faculty advisor is Dr. Ryan Light. If you have any questions regarding your rights as a research participant, please contact the Office for Protection of Human Subjects at the University of Oregon.
