IdeaLab is an incubator for people to share ideas to improve Wikimedia
projects and collaboratively develop them into plans and grant
proposals.
I'm cross-posting to the developer and researcher lists because I
could imagine some of you following this path:
idea for research -> IdeaLab -> learning to use publicly available
data sources -> quick prototyping via User Metrics, replicated
databases in Labs,
stats.wikimedia.org, and Limn -> idea for a bigger
project with research & editor engagement implications -> idea
refinement in IdeaLab -> grant proposal
Now is a good time to start so you can get a grant proposal in by the
30 September deadline, requesting up to USD 30,000. More information:

Hope this is helpful!
