How about going back to the good old big fat Edit button that used to be on the original C2 wiki implementation? And how about putting that button both at the top and and the bottom of the pages, and in the case of WP, beside each section header?
If the ability to edit a page is so central to a wiki, then maybe the button or link you click on to edit should be given more screen real estate.

Not commenting on the questionnaire, but I did want to point out that if many people don't know the basics about WP, perhaps more should be done in the header of the main body of articles to introduce them to this user editable encyclopedia. _______________________________________________ Wiki-research-l mailing list Wiki-research-l@Wikimedia.org http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wiki-research-l
