I spent a bit of time looking into the UNU-Merit survey from 2008 and its
surrounding circumstances. The ball was fumbled at every point along the
way. I think it will be difficult to do worse this time, but it'll take a
while to see how this pans out in order to make a fair comparison of the two
surveys.

I don't believe the raw data was ever made available from the 2008 survey;
<http://www.wikipediasurvey.org/> was the closest thing I could find to any
type of analysis. Keegan, if you have anything worthwhile to provide to this
discussion, please stop holding back.
