So far, nobody showed any interest.
One of your points there was:
- The current experience (or at least my current experience) is not
really encouraging. The real top researchers just plainly have no time to edit articles, nor are they really interested. Those who come are mostly interested in editing article about themselves or about their immediate research, and view this as a kind of free PR.
The same might be said of articles about Wikipedia. If you don't get any responses within 48 hours you are unlikely to get any at all. I see one response there but that is most likely because of the message to which I am responding. Your comments are on "Temp17" of what is probably a much longer series of personal subpages. There is very likelihood that anyone will ever see it, let alone respond.
