Hi all,

Resulting article at:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2011/mar/29/wikipedia-survey-academic-contributions
Although I kept feeding them details for others, and sending emails to suggested users, they ended up leading the article with the interview I did with them, including my picture (eek), as I was easily accessible and met their criteria (academic? yup. wikimedian? yup. available for picture? erm... I guess so...).

Thanks for everyone's help on this.

Mike

If you think you'd fit the bill, or know someone that might, please could you get in touch asap? They need to talk to someone today ideally...
