For example; it is taken as a given that incivility drives away new users, but do we have hard statistical evidence to back that up? And if that is a true situation, can we identify specifically what uncivil things are driving the most editors away (rudeness, templating, etc.). Although please lets do it without words like "big data", which makes me squirm :P Tom _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l
