We want to reach a similar number as in the previous survey, about 1,000 responses.

Specific criteria: Logged-in users (“editors”).

German Wikipedia, users only based in Germany
Will you be collecting any of these types of data?

Demographic information – for getting an overview about the German community and its development since the last survey

After the last changes which we have also shared with TAndic (WMF), I am pinging her with the kind request for approval of the request, questionnaire and process. Martin Rulsch (WMDE) (talk) 17:12, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Approved on my end! @Martin Rulsch (WMDE) and I discussed changes to the survey in advance, and any potential changes to the survey from today forward I trust the WMDE legal team will review and approve according to their standards. All the best and good luck with the data collection, -TAndic (WMF) (talk) 17:42, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
