I'd also like to ask 15' of your time to take
part in a pilot survey to
understand reasons why academics/scientists do (not) contribute to
Wikipedia. The survey has been inspired by a recent discussion on
FriendFeed, it has been designed by Daniel and myself, with input from other
people:

If you get a chance to go through it, I'd love to have your feedback on how
to improve it before it goes live.
I look forward to talking to you this Saturday.
The questionnaire is interesting, actually. While I was filling the
first page, I was thinking that I am doing it for my fictional
character. However, at the end I've realized that I filled the
questionnaire as real myself :)
Besides the fact that the culture on Wikipedia is not so bright, the
other problem in my field (linguistics) is that even English Wikipedia
so poorly covers the field, that I don't have an idea where to start.
Whatever I started to do looks like a white elephant.
