[Wikimediaindia-l] Question for Hindi Wikipedians

[Barry Newstead]

Hi -

Frank Schulenberg did an interesting analysis that looked at the 
proportion of people creating a new account on Wikipedia who go on to 
make an edit within 10 days.  It was surprising to see that Hindi 
Wikipedia had a very different rate that some other projects (see 
below). Can anyone share an explanation?

English 	31
German 	35
Russian 	26
Swedish 	30
Hindi 	9


FYI - Frank did this for a new initiative starting in October:

Best,
Barry
