Hi everyone,
I need your help!
My girl friend is working on her bachelor thesis in information science at the university of Regensburg, and she desperately needs at least 80 participants in a survey on usage of the Wikipedia by the end of August. Participants in this study must be at least 18 years old, and native English speakers. (That makes it so difficult for her to find enough participants, since we are in Germany).
If you fulfil these requirements and have 20 to 40 minutes time to participate in the survey, then please open the following link on your laptop or desktop computer:
http://132.199.143.90:2222/AMO_BA_Survey/startSurvey

If you know other people that are interested in participating in research studies, it would be great if you could forward them a copy of the link and this explanation.
Thanks a lot for your support!
Jorim

That's one done, good luck to your girlfriend with her degree

Thanks, it means a lot to her!

Just finished the survey. I never realised how unfamiliar I was with Wikipedia.

I'll make some time for it over the weekend!

Happy to help. Easy peasy.

Awesome!

For me the page broke at step 3.

Did you get enough responders by the deadline, or are more still needed (you said end of Aug)?

I kept meaning to do this but since it needed a PC, kept missing it (usually check Dakka from my phone these days).

Until now she sadly hasn't got enough participants, so if you find the time for it, it would be greatly appreciated!

I tried doing it just now, but there's no way for me to proceed from Step 3 (viewing a sample Wikipedia page inside the survey) to Step 4. Maybe it's my browser...

Edit: Aha, it's just on a timer! It might help to have that posted somewhere on the page, I thought it was just a dead end.
