That would make an interesting project, Tom. I don't know how big the UK
community is (or how we'd define it), but I do try to encourage meetups
around the country as much as I can.
We ought to have a recruitment drive to convert interested editors into
members and try to engage them in a broader range of activities. Ideas for
action and volunteers to help are always appreciated.

Of course another way of looking at the
"tedious numbers" discussion is
that
less than 0.5% of the active users on the English
Wikipedia bothered to
vote
in the ArbCom elections. Having something like 1
in 200 of the eligible
electorate turning out to vote is an interesting comparison with the WMUK
elections where about 1 out of every 6 eligible voters made the effort to
cast votes.
I actually think that's quite healthy. YMMV.
Yes, but what proportion of the UK community has joined WMUK? Not a
particularly large proportion.
