basic questions 
the survey might ask is, "Do you consider  yourself a
Wikipedian?""

This might be a good use for the Wikimedian
Demographics project on Wikiversity... just add
questions or sets of questions there, and see which
ones "work" (in the sense of getting clear responses
and making sure that all options that should be
included are available for answering.) 

One question that comes to mind is whether this survey
will be "anonymous", as opposed to the Wikiversity
surveys which tie responses to a particular username
(presumably one used on other projects as well). 

link again for those who are wondering what I'm
talking about:

(By the way: is there something wrong with the
"digest" mailings? I haven't recieved one in several
days (working fine on checkuser-l). )
