My research involves studying wiki usage, the reasons why individuals use wikis
and the benefits/disadvantages of using wikis to manage knowledge.
I was wondering if you would agree to my analysing your contributions to
Wikipedia. This will basically involve calculating how many times you've
contributed to Wikipedia within the time period of a week.
Since contribution histories of users are all public, no permissions
should be needed to analyze any of them.
I was also wondering what your reasons are for
using/contributing to Wikipedia.
The simple answer to that is that I am completely mad.
