This is really interesting. How about something like, "Did you find what 
you were looking for?"

Wikipedia isn't a service, really, but maybe it wouldn't hurt to think 
of it as one. Right now, I think it's possbile that Wikipedia editors 
are more in touch with the issues that affect editors and totally out of 
touch with people who actually use the damn thing as a reference. All 
this debate about VfD/AfD or what is and isn't a speedy or whether 
[[WP:BEARD]] should be moved to BJAODN is probably not what your average 
Wikipedia reader is thinking about. More reader feedback might be a way 
to give us an idea of how good a job we are doing.
