Hello!
My name is Sanjay Kairam, and I'm a 1st-year PhD student at Stanford researching online social information systems. I'm currently working on the design of a system to help editors of Wikipedia articles on scientific topics by helping them more quickly find related scientific publications. I was hoping to make the eventual system as helpful as possible for the Wikipedia community, and I was hoping to speak with some editors who frequently edit these types of articles to help inform my design.
If you edit scientific articles frequently, or even if you happen to just read these articles frequently, your assistance would be much appreciated - if you happen to be in the Bay Area and would like to meet in person - even better! If you are willing to help, please email me at skairam at cs . stanford . edu. The insights you provide could potentially benefit the Wikipedia community as a whole and all readers who come to Wikipedia looking for scientific information. Thanks!

Hi Sanjay,
I read scientific articles on Wikipedia very often. I live a million miles from the Bay Area (Belgrade, Serbia) but I would be glad to help!
Best, Goran
