Hoi,

Easy and obvious. Magnus showed the way and it is indeed in gamification. When the WMF exposes this approach and stops thinking in Wikipedia only, it will get a lot more contributions and, we can become a platform for interactive stuff that is nice to do, has a benefit and makes the time go by.

I can think of several other things that we could give a boost.

Thanks,

GerardM

Thinking big here: popular internationalized computer games can have 10+ million unit sales. Some of the most popular online games have millions of monthly active users. I'm wondering if the research community, including Design Research, can envision a way for Wikimedia to scale up from 80,000 active monthly users to 8,000,000 active monthly users.

What would we need in order to stimulate and nourish this kind of growth?

What can we learn from popular internationalized games about design that could benefit Wikimedia on a large scale?
