The time series starts well before Nupedia.
That would be great, John.
Though Wikipedia peculiarities should be taken into account, long time series would allow interesting comparisons. In particular, about the future trends that we may expect to find in the future, from patterns already observed in other scenarios with a wider timespan.

Whatever means in the official statistics. It
would be good
to have numbers about newcomers and those who made
10 or 100 edits,
so we may compare how do we attract attention
through the time.
However, I think that those numbers are relatively
stable in the past > couple of years (let's say, from 2005 or so).
You can check more precise figures and graphs in my
thesis about general statistics for survivability for all logged editors and core editors (the top 10% most active editors in each month), from the beginning until Dec. 2007, in the top-ten language versions (at that time).

As for the percentages of users by age, education
level, etc. my impression is that opinions from experienced community members are often well oriented. But they're only opinions. Until we get the results of the general survey, we won't have a clear picture of the current "recruitment" targets for all versions.
Nevertheless, according to our updates, it seems that
the situation is not getting better from Jan 2008 onwards.
Best, Felipe.
