We’re preparing a bigger survey that will see wider distribution, but to help me calibrate it and know what I want to ask, I want to run some preliminary questions here.
Your answers will help us improve the wiki in the short-term, so thanks for participating! You can simply comment below or send me a DM if you want to remain somewhat anonymous.
Section 1
- Do you have an account on ProleWiki?
- If not, why?
- Were you aware that having an account on ProleWiki allows you to edit pages and participate in the editor community?
Section 2
- How often do you visit ProleWiki in a week or month?
- What keeps you coming back to ProleWiki?
- What impact has ProleWiki had on you? Either positive or negative (please detail)
Section 3
- Where do you feel ProleWiki is lacking?
- Please take a page you remember that you didn’t entirely like and provide your criticism of it, not only on the content but on the phrasing as well. Please don’t choose a stub (we know they’re too short 🙏)
- How would you rate the language and tone used on ProleWiki from 1 to 10? With 1 being casual (as if between friends), and 10 being academic (as if presenting a paper to an auditorium).
- Do you perceive ProleWiki to be a credible encyclopedia?
Bonus question: how would you like to see ProleWiki evolve?
Be as honest as you can, I won’t take it personally.
Hexbearers can answer too now that we’re federated btw, but this remains a small-scale internal survey until the real big one gets published.
1
No
I didn’t realize it was a thing
2
Not too often, if I’m looking for a definition that’d be better from a communist source I’ll search it out there. I’ve done it twice or three times ever.
What I already said, and also articles linked on Lemmygrad.
Positive
3
I don’t have any specific criticisms
6?
To an extent, not that I’d expect anyone I send a link to to trust it like encyclopedia brittanica or something.
