Dear Wikipedia researchers,
I'm working on a paper that would benefit from knowing more about a given set of Wikipedia editors. Does anyone have experience surveying Wikipedia editors? Can someone point me to literature that has done this or discuss how one might go about doing it?
From what I understand, it is possible to private-message registered Wiki
editors from a registered account, but perhaps there are considerations/limitations I should keep in mind?
Thanks!

Hi Misha,
You might find the survey support desk https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Surveys to be a useful resource for guidance on the do's and don't's of survey design and deployment.
Best, Jonathan
