Survey

-
Active Editors
-
There are 280-290 active editors (5 edits a month) and 20-30 very
active editors (over 100 edits a month) on the English language
Wikipedia. Some
ideas were suggested on how to reach the active editors in
Ireland. It was
decided that we will wait until after the survey results are back.
-
Meetings
-
It was decided that the group will scale back the meetings to every
other week. To encourage more participants we will begin using Doodle to
schedule the meetings. Several options for meeting days and times will be
put on the Doodle and everyone will have 3 days to vote on what day/time
suits them best. The day/time with the most votes wins. SE will send out
the Doodle in the early part of the ‘off’ week.
