Interview invitation from a Wikipedia researcher in the University of Minnesota

Would you be willing to answer a short 5 minute survey? If so, please email me at leung085@umn.edu. It would be helpful if you could include your Wikipedia username when emailing.

Thank you, Weiwen Weiwensg (talk) 19:24, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
