Personnally, I'm a gamer and I use to edit wikimedia projects. 

I think it may be interesting if we create a game around some wikimedia projects.

Another option may be to let people learn about the "open-source-idea" and what that could do with the world. I think this idea could stimulate a lot of people to take part in the wikimedia projects.

We should take care that we not only stimulate gamers to edit only game related articles.

Kind regards,

Stéphane

I've asked these questions in other ways and places and I'd like to hear what other people on the Research and EE lists think.

There are many video game players of diverse ages, genders, languages, and locations. How could Wikimedia editing be made into an appealing activity for people who are currently video gamers? How could Wikimedia market itself to gamers, including console, LAN, FPS, MMORPG, and mobile gamers?
