Where is that definition from? I was using Erik Zachte's definition of "active member", as used in a half dozen presentations on Wikipedia -- ~80k editors with over 5 edits in the past month... 210k with over 10 edits in all. I think "100k active editors" is accurate, though perhaps "200k contributors" would be better.

The long-term discussion about planning for, devotion to, and passing on the message and goals of the projects falls to all of us -- not just the 700 people subscribed to this list, nor the 2000 contributors to Meta, nor just the 100,000 active editors across all the projects...
There are only 23,611* active registered editors (as of June 1, 2006) on all projects.

- "Active" is defined as "400 edits lifetime and 100 edits in the past
year on any given project". This number is overstated because many people are "active" on more than one project, and until we get SUL I can't readily account for that. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
