An idea for collecting data by parsing the [[Wikipedia:List_of_WikiProjects]] can be seen if you look closely at [[Wikipedia:WikiProjectCentral]]. It has been suggested that one should join the realtime chat network for wikiprojects at [[freenode]]: [irc://irc.freenode.net/wikiproject #wikiproject].

I'm interested in statistics that would help one understand the social aspects of wiki usage, for example, group dynamics that made Wikipedia a success and other wiki projects a failure.
Currently, there are too many research questions. There's a lack of focus. So a few suggestions/questions:
- How about focussing on a key question?
- How about moving questions of lesser importance into a KIV page?
- Who can help us collect the necessary data?

data collection
An idea for collecting data by parsing the Wikipedia:List_of_WikiProjects can be seen if you look closely at Wikipedia:WikiProjectCentral. It has been suggested that one should join the realtime chat network for wikiprojects at freenode: #wikiproject. Note that this is a long-term experimental process, so please be patient and open-minded.
