This Summer the Wikimedia Foundation will be bringing in a handful of graduate students to work with the Community Department, led by Diederik van Liere and Maryana Pinchuk, on a few months of rapid iterations on vital research questions related to the recruitment and retention of new editors on Wikipedia. This page is a placeholder for links to our announcements and preliminary research. If you have any questions or are a Wikimedian interested in participating in either quantitative or qualitative research, please comment on the Talk page.
