It's great to see this back underway. What was the three-day online
focus group like?
I would be particularly interested in data such as
First awareness
- when did donors first hear about wikipedia / first use the project?
- when did they find out that it was run by a non-profit?
- when did they find out that it was publicly editable?
- when did they discover:
-- article talk pages? the history tab?
-- recent changes?
Sharing knowledge
- do they talk to others about Wikipedia?
- do they use Wikipedia at school or work?
- besides Wikipedia, what other online sites do they use to share
knowledge, and what sorts of things do they write/photograph/record?
(flickr, youtube, twitter, google docs, wiktionary, wikitravel, wikia,
freebase, openstreetmap, &c)
Participation
- have they ever edited? what do they think of the editing process?
- have they ever uploaded a photo or video? what do they think of the
upload process?
- have they donated before?
- have they submitted ideas or suggestions? (if asked, it would be
handy to add a link to a way to do so :)

Hey All--
Last year, a volunteer did a lot of work for a planned 2009 Fundraising
Survey (
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising_2009/Survey). We put
the project on hold as it ran up against the 2009 Annual Fundraiser.
We have revived the survey with help from Fenton and SeaChange, our
communications partners. The new survey page is
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising_2010/Survey and will
incorporate some of last year's work as well as some newer areas of
research.
We're specifically interested in hearing your thoughts on subject areas
about our donors you might be interested in, for example the things
you'd like to know about our growing donor base. Our plan is to use
the survey to build on our basic knowledge of our donors, including
perspectives on the campaign itself.
As always, your participation is welcome.
We expect the survey to launch via email to our donors in late April or May.
Thanks.
Rand
