Goal: to investigate possible causes of extremely low observed survey initiation rates on hiwiki
Research questions:
- Do low response rates generalize to other "South Asian" language projects?
- Are low response rates specific to link-out surveys? (IE, do demographic surveys on Quicksurvey yield much higher responses)?
- Are low response rates due in part to high bot traffic? (IE, do write-in responses yield similar completions/distributions as multiple choice)?
Tasks:
- Draft research design
- Field pilot quicksurveys on hiwiki and other South Asian Wikipedias
