Request for more information

Hello! Thanks for proposing this. I am some questions.

  1. Could the research team please share links to information describing their past research which demonstrates experience doing anything like this project?
  2. It seems that the people organizing this research have little experience participating in Wikipedia culture. Could the proposers please describe their level of familiarity with the Wikipedia platform? Given that level of familiarity, could the proposers please describe any barriers to conducting their research that they expect to have, but that would not exist if they had deeper understanding of Wikipedia.
  3. What information gained from this project would be most useful to the Wikimedia community?

Impact

Hi Richard!

I'm really curious how this research will impact Wikipedia. To the extent that you can figure out why more doctors don't edit and what we could do to change that, the more interested I'd be in seeing this funded.

There's also been a decent amount of prior survey research that has identified doctors using Wikipedia because it's free, fast, and easy to access, relatively complete and accurate (good enough for jogging memory or starting research), written in an understandable style. It'd be nice to see you review that literature and discuss how your survey will add to this understanding or deepen it.

One last thing, you should also notify WikiProject Medicine (http://enwp.org/WT:MED), which is a different group than Wiki Project Med Foundation.
