My name is Jim Sutton and I'm undertaking research in the School of Library, Archive, and Information Studies, UCL. http://www.slais.ucl.ac.uk/ My research involves studying wiki usage, the reasons why individuals use wikis and the benefits/disadvantages of using wikis to create and manage knowledge or in Uncyclopedia case 'misinformation'. I was wondering if you would agree to my analysing your contributions to Uncyclopedia. This will basically involve calculating how many times you've contributed to Uncyclopedia within the time period of a week. If you agree to my analysing your contributions then please email me with your Uncyclopedia username. I'd also be extremely grateful for any feedback you can provide as to your reasons for using/ contributing to Uncyclopedia. You can submit your feedback through my online survey which I'm using as part of my research so please feel free to complete this if you have the time. It?s available at: http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/stqa7937/survey/ My Uncyclopedia username is Sutton4019 and my research is being carried out jointly with Melissa Terras at UCL http://www.ucl.ac.uk/ slais/melissa-terras/ . Her email address is m.terras at ucl.ac.uk . If you have any questions please let me know and thank you for your time. Thanks! Jim Sutton
