Hoi.
Wikipedia should be more like a social network. It provides us with the
opportunity to reach out to people when we want to crowd source some
activity. We have a problem in retaining people particular newbies. When we
show a social side to our work on open content (not only encyclopaedic
content) we stand a better chance we are likely to do better.
Thanks,
GerardM
