Project idea

What Wikimedia project(s) and specific areas will you be evaluating?

Is this project measuring a specific space on a project (e.g. deletion discussions), or the project as a whole?
All content based projects contributed by editors should be evaluated.

Describe your idea. How might it be implemented?

Provide details about the method or process of how you will evaluate your community or collect data. Does your idea involve private or personally identifying information? Take a look at the Privacy Policy for Wikimedia’s guidelines in this area.
This is a three layered skill mapping activity may be named as Editornoia. First layer is the online test which will contain some burning questionnaires to pull info. Second round would be mass round, here they would keep their perceptions and explaining complex areas of action. Third lap will be one to one round which will personalise the evaluation and help getting proper insights.

Are there experienced Wikimedians who can help implement this project?

If applicable, please list groups or usernames of individuals who you can work with on this project, and what kind of work they will do.
Experienced Wikimedians will be engaged to implement this project and a standard protocol will be followed for the same,

How will you know if this project is successful? What are some outcomes that you can share after the project is completed?

This is the important part to analyse the project. The project will end up with to-do list for all editors who have been getting frustrated either of reasons. Once reasons will be cleared and equipped with their solutions. The insight of the outcome would reflect in Wikimedia dashboard.

How would your measurement idea help your community make better decisions?

After you are finished measuring or evaluating your Wikimedia project, how do you expect that information to be used to benefit the project?
To be very transparent on this, community doesn't know the troubles or the reasons of editors conflicts, frustration or the causative factor of editors' poor retention. This project will enable community to figure out all causes and would take preventive action to fill all gaps.

Do you think you can implement this idea? What support do you need?

Do you need people with specific skills to complete this idea? Are there any financial needs for this project? If you can’t implement this project, can you scale down your project so it is doable?
Yes, I can implement EDITORNOIA. I need community and foundation support for entire project.
