Sample of users for Desktop Improvement Project research recruiting
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

What's requested: Sample of users from Wikimedia projects. It'd be good to get a combination of readers (represented by accounts with no edits, perhaps). newer registered editors (with 1-5 edits) and active editors (5+ in the last month or two, similar to the CI group) from the following locations (if possible) South america, Africa, South Asia, India; or the related language wikis.

Why it's requested: Sample will be used by Design research to recruit participants for user testing being conducted for the desktop improvements project

When it's requested. as soon as possible (ideally by the end of next week, Oct 2) so we can begin outreach

A few additional details about the CI sample:

Recommended next steps:

  • If the CI sample would be useful, can you please first reach out to Rebecca Maung (who ran the survey) to confirm if it's ok for your team to reuse? The Community Insights survey was just recently sent out so I want to confirm there are no concerns about reaching out to the same people twice in quick succession. If no problems, she or I can easily and quickly share the list.
  • If you are not able to use the CI sample, I or someone else on the Product Analytics team can help generate a new sample for you. The benefit with this approach is that we could generate the sample based on your specific requirements; however, it would take a little time and work to generate. My availability is limited for the next two weeks but I can bring it up in our team triage meeting and see if someone can do it ASAP.

Update: @dchen reached out to Becky Maung with the Global Data and Insights Team and confirmed that the CI sample should not be reused for this purpose in accordance with our privacy policies. We will need to pull new users for this sample. I've updated the task description with the current request.

Unassigning myself right now as I'm out next week. The team will review prioritize the request during our next board review meeting.

@dchen we've got a couple of people out this week and lots of end-of-quarter work underway, so we won't be able to take this on. If it's absolutely necessary to do before Megan returns, let me know and I'll reevaluate priorities.

Looping in @ovasileva so she can weigh in on priorities if needed, either before Megan returns or after she's back.

@kzimmerman, @dchen, @MNeisler - I think it will be okay to wait until Megan is back next week

I delivered the sample list to Daisy today. @dchen - Let me know if you have any changes or additional questions.

@dchen - per the last update you sent via email, I'm going to go ahead and resolve this task but feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
