Interested in participating in an interview study regarding LLMs?

Dear @Skarz,

It is our pleasure to invite you to join a study at the University of Minnesota! The objective of the study is to understand how large language models (LLMs) impact the collaborative knowledge production process, by investigating knowledge contributors’ interactions with LLMs in practice.

If you have used LLMs (e.g., GPT, Llama, Claude...) in the process of contributing to Wikipedia (eg. grammar check, finding resources, writing scripts...), we’d love to join the study! You will be engaging in a 45-60 min interview, talking and reflecting about your experience with Wikipedia and your perception/usage of LLMs in Wikipedia. Your valuable input will not only help us understand practical ways to incorporate LLMs into the knowledge production process, but also help us generate guardrails about these practices. All participation would be anonymous.

In addition, if you know any editor who may have used LLMs during their edits, we highly appreciate it if you could share their contact with us, as we can reach out to them.

To learn more, please feel free to start a chat with me in email or take a look at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:How_LLMs_impact_knowledge_production_processes or direcly sign up: https://umn.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bqIjhNRg9Zqsuvs

Thank you so much for your time and consideration!

All the best,
LLMs and knowledge production Research Team

:lol, thanks for that... I completely forgot I put that there. Clearly you can see the idea of archiving and preserving links on Wikipedia has 'ensnared' me for some time. I am working on a much more robust version ↗ right now (based on the original ↗ posted by Netha).{{pb}}I am ALSO working on an archival comparison tool which allows editors to view archived pages side by side for visual comparison, more on that here ↗ with a screenshot! skarz (talk) 01:44, 6 March 2026 (UTC)

That photo shows the Pen after movie set renovations. When in use as a prison, the guard booth, bleachers, and metal window awnings were not there. ~2026-37591-89 ↗ (talk) 18:42, 30 June 2026 (UTC)
