Adoption
What would you want to get out of an adoption? Is there anything you need help on? Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk | Sign 10:34, 16 May 2009 (UTC)


 * There are groups called wiki-projects that are collections of wikipedians who are interested in specific topics, such as Medicine, Science and Literature, and also improving wikipedia through copy-editing and other things. You can find a complete list of every wiki-project here.

Adoption

Good day, mate! Thanks for the message on my talk page. I'd be very glad to adopt you and show you the ways of Wikipedia! I just added the Adoption Offer template, so I've just formally adopted you. I'm still working on the pages for my adoption program, but look at these two pages (User:Laurinavicius/Adoption and User:Laurinavicius/Adoption/VinylCerebellum) for all of the basic information and links you're going to need as an editor and you're first task. If you have any questions about anything, please don't hesitate to drop me a line! Happy editing! --Laurinavicius (talk) 15:04, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Adoption
The Basics task is something that I have made. This, along with all the other adoption pages including tasks and help pages, are part of my adoption program that User:Laurinavicius is also using. The task has already been done by one of my adoptees. I will clear it out so that you can have a go as soon as my adoptee has got it right. I hope this explains things and if you have more questions, or need any help, please ask. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk |Sign 17:29, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Request to participate in University of Washington survey on tool to quickly understand Wikipedians’ reputations
Hello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington. In April, we met with some local Wikipedians to learn what they would like to know about other editors’ history and activities (within Wikipedia) when interacting with them on talk pages. The goal of those sessions was to gather feedback to help design an embedded application that could quickly communicate useful information about other Wikipedians. We have now created a few images that we feel represent some of what our participants thought was important. We would appreciate it if you took a few minutes of your time to complete an online survey that investigates whether or not these images would be useful to you. Your quick contribution would be very valuable to our research group and ultimately to Wikipedia. (When finished, the code for this application will be given over to the Wikipedia community to use and/or adjust as they see fit.)

Willing to spend a few minutes taking our survey? Click this link.

Please feel free to share the link with other Wikipedians. The more feedback, the better! The survey is completely anonymous and takes less than 10 minutes to complete. All data is used for university research purposes only.

Thank you for your time! If you have any questions about our research or research group, please visit our user page. Commprac01 (talk) 01:06, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
