Hi, Pine
I've added this request to the Research backlog.
Thanks,

Pinging Analytics to ask about editor longevity data
(:
My understanding is that newbies (<= 10 edits) are more likely to
disappear early in their "careers" than they were 5 years ago, but that
editors that have been active for years are likely to remain active for
years.
It would be interesting, as part of the strategic plan process, to work on
improving editor retention. I believe that this may be related to our
treatment and training of newcomers (onboarding, civility, NPP, Teahouse,
etc.) in addition to external changes in our environment (e.g. the rise of
Facebook).

On svwp there has over the years been 45
individuals who have each made
more then 38000 edits.
Of these 45, 44 are still active, only one has left (in 2009) making
97,7 still around. For the users with less then 38 000 edits, only about 6
out of 10 is still active.
Is this a global valid number, that when you have made 38000 edits you
are fully addicted to Wikipedia ("until death do us part")?
