After several months of work by WikiProject Research, the research
policy proposal Wikipedia:Research that we announced earlier has been
posted at RFC:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Wikipedia_polic…
We invite your participation as we push forward with turning this
proposal into a Wikipedia policy.

Pursuant to prior discussions about the need for a
research policy
on Wikipedia, WikiProject Research is drafting a policy regarding
the recruitment of Wikipedia users to participate in studies.
At this time, we have a proposed policy, and an
accompanying group
that would facilitate recruitment of subjects in much the same way
that the Bot Approvals Group approves bots.
The Subject Recruitment Approvals Group mentioned in
the proposal is
being described at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Subject_Recruitment_Approvals_Group
Before we move forward with seeking approval from the
Wikipedia
community, we would like additional input about the proposal, and
would welcome additional help improving it.
Also, please consider participating in WikiProject
Research at:
