Interesting to read about your study. Would you be available for an interview about your work at ?

You might also be interested in. One of my longer term efforts is to start a "Wikipedia Institute" that would interface with studies like yours and aid in the research, and conduct our own research projects. We currently are trying to get something started on a small scale about dispute resolution, associated with the work of User: Leafman, as you can see at .-Filll (talk) 11:04, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Hello, . This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved.     BoL (Talk) 04:28, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Please discontinue mass-posting
Edits such as this constitute canvassing under Wikipedia's guidelines, so I'd like to kindly ask you to stop. Users aren't permitted to use Wikipedia as a forum to attain participants in events outside Wikipedia, or even within Wikipedia. Users' talk pages are generally only to be used for collaboration on the encyclopedia. Thanks for your understanding, and please let me know if you have any questions, either by posting them here or on my talk page.  Equazcion •✗/C • 04:34, 4 Apr 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Katherine. As someone above mentioned, there is a currently a discussion regarding you at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents - despite the name "administrators' noticeboard", anyone can post there. I don't agree with all of what Equazcion says above - other editors may or may not agree. However, not many administrators or editors have commented yet, so I'd suggest you wait before furthering the disputed action (messages to other editors regarding your study). Hope this helps. I'd also be willing to answer questions. (You might just want to post your questions here so multiple editors can chime in. :-) Cheers, Iamunknown 05:08, 4 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Also, you might find WikiProject_Wikidemia useful. They specialize in writing articles about Wikipedia, so they might be helpful to talk to. At the least, it might provide a place to find study particpants without posting on numerous talk pages. (Although I have to say, I'm not convinced that what you've done really constitutes disruptive canvassing). Best, -- B figura (talk) 05:15, 4 April 2008 (UTC)


 * There's no disagreement that the action of posting 50 advertisements for a study is not proper. This is not in dispute. Please don't continue to do that. Whether or not it falls under WP:CANVAS specifically is possibly questionable, but either way, mass-posting advertisements like this is not proper use of talk pages. Thanks.  Equazcion •✗/C • 05:17, 4 Apr 2008 (UTC)


 * Sorry, should have been more clear. I don't think she meant to be disruptive, but I do agree though that mass-posting is not the route she should take here. -- B figura (talk) 05:25, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
 * PS: Feel free to contact me if you need volunteers, or have any questions. Cheers, -- B figura (talk) 06:41, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually, there is disagreement. I disagree with your assessment that it is improper. --Iamunknown 05:28, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Another place that might be more helpful to you is the Village Pump which is a noticeboard of sorts for general Wikipedia information. You may find it more effective, and less disruptive, to make a single posting there rather than multiple postings across user talk pages.  We welcome you to Wikipedia and hope that, while you are here, you help us in our goals to improve some articles!  We appreciate any help we can get! --Jayron32. talk . contribs  05:23, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

You might consider contacting the foundation directly
You also might want to consider contacting User:Cary_Bass, who is an employee of the Wikimedia foundation. I think he likely could tell you if the foundation has any interest in working with your group and helping you find research subjects. Cheers! Gwen Gale (talk) 06:29, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Greetings. I have downloaded and am about to applaud your paper "Creating...". Thanks for the link on your user page! Please join us at WikiProject Minnesota. -Susanlesch (talk) 06:02, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Don't worry about the natives
Don't worry about the natives here, they get a bit jumpy sometimes. -- Ned Scott 06:28, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, pay them no mind.  Equazcion •✗/C • 06:42, 4 Apr 2008 (UTC)

Oddly enough, people who are the subject of studies by outside anthropologists/sociologists/ethnologists who have failed to study the local culture, mores and customs sometimes become unpleasant and non-cooperative when these are violated, even when the benevolent and all-knowing academics assure us it is all for our own good! -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  14:45, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I apologize for that snafu at first. :) BoL (Talk) 05:07, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

IRB?
Catherine, is this study associated with your institution in any way? I would find it hard to believe your institution's IRB would approve a study involving human subjects when the method of recruiting participants violates on our policies. --ElKevbo (talk) 15:08, 4 April 2008 (UTC)


 * There is no reason to threaten her career because she was unaware of a relatively obscure policy. Additionally, if you do contact the IRB you do so as an individual and not as a representative of Wikipedia or Wikimedia and you should take care not to indicate otherwise. Avruch  T 15:11, 4 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Of course I would act as an individual - a fellow academic whose research also involves human subjects. I don't think it would really be a big deal given she is a student and this study doesn't seem to involve any risk whatsoever.  --ElKevbo (talk) 15:16, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

I reiterate my questions: Has this study been approved or exempted by your institution's IRB? --ElKevbo (talk) 05:29, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Dodge the spam
Good luck with your research.

I would suggest that you create a yahoo or hotmail account and post that email address instead of running the risk of getting your school email account crowded with spam. Doczilla STOMP! 05:23, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Research
What happened to the research, by the way? I notice that User:Cooldenny has popped up with something similar recently, and presumably there have been others that never crossed my path. Were you for real, or what? -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 15:59, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
