I&#39;m university lecturer, teaching video game development courses for 5 years. for me, it seems an interesting idea: a good analysis of a videogame is a formative assessment and can help improve Wikipedia.<div><br></div>

<div><div dir="ltr">I have been thinking that this is something we perhaps should approach university classes in game design about and see what they would come up with (perhaps as a formal assignement for them). <br><br>
However, I have yet to contact teachers to start talking to about this idea and also to list things that the game(s) could focus on. Any thoughts about this approach? <br><br>Best, <br><br>John Andersson<br>WMSE<br><div class="hm HOEnZb">

<div dir="ltr">


<div dir="ltr">I&#39;ve asked these questions in other ways and places and I&#39;d like to hear what other people on the Research and EE lists think.<br><div><br>


<div dir="ltr">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?<br>
