July 2012 Study of authors of health-related Wikipedia pages
Dear Author/Gary King
My name is Nuša Farič and I am a Health Psychology MSc student at the University College London (UCL). I am currently running a quantitative study entitled Who edits health-related Wikipedia pages and Why? I am interested in the editorial experience of people who edit health-related Wikipedia pages. I am interested to learn more about the authors of health-related pages on Wikipedia and what motivations they have for doing so. I am currently contacting the authors of randomly selected articles and I noticed that someone at this address recently edited an article on Psychotherapy. I would like to ask you a few questions about you and your experience of editing the above mentioned article and or other health-related articles. If you would like more information about the project, please visit my user page (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Hydra_Rain) and if interested, please reply via my talk page or e-mail me on nusa.faric.11@ucl.ac.uk. Also, others interested in the study may contact me! If I do not hear back from you I will not contact this account again. Thank you very much in advance. Hydra Rain (talk) 19:17, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

- Uh thanks. Your timestamp is incorrect, though, so I've updated it. (I assume you copied this entire message including the timestamp from elsewhere.) Gary King (talk · scripts) 17:37, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
- Nerves I guess. It's not often I go to deliver an award and a legend (and King no less) answers the door. :~) ```Buster Seven Talk 12:27, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
TFA
Dude, I'd have loved a heads-up on this. I've never had anything I've worked on at TFA before! Here's to the optimism that it might get there. -- Sabre (talk) 20:35, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah sorry, I should have done that. I just checked my user page recently though, and happened to notice this one was a ten-year anniversary so I just jumped at the chance. I also didn't want to make it seem at all like I would be canvassing in any way for votes on it, since at the moment it's got zero supports/opposes, because otherwise I might have brought it up at WP:VG like I would sometimes do for FACs to get a little activity going (but since TFAR is more straight-up voting while FAC is more about criticism, it's best not to do that). This is a pretty special anniversary at ten years, though, and it's got four points (we're very lucky that there wasn't a recent video game TFA because those tend to occur fairly frequently, although not as much I guess because people got sick of those), so this was one of the submissions I made that got more points than usual. I'm optimistic that it'll go through! Gary King (talk · scripts) 21:26, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for August 19
Hi. When you recently edited Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Verge (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
