English exonyms
Thank you for your contributions on English exonyms. One question on Üsküdar/Scutari. Is Scutari really an exonym or is it "just" the historical name, i.e. is Scutari used in any context other than a historical one ? Travelbird 15:24, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
- Good question. I honestly couldn't say that it is used other than in a historical context. But I doubt whether there are that many people who discuss the place in any other context, other than English speakers living in the area - and the chances are that they use the local name. So I imagine it's something akin to Aix-la-Chapelle/Aachen. DrDaveHPP 16:25, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Select Survey Invite
I'm working on a study of political motivations and how they affect editing. I'd like to ask you to take a survey. The survey should take no more than 1-2 minutes. Your survey responses will be kept private. Our project is documented at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_%2B_Politics.
Your survey Link: https://uchicago.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9S3JByWf57fXEkR?Q_DL=56np5HpEZWkMlr7_9S3JByWf57fXEkR_MLRP_9YMmFzhiVAYmhzn&Q_CHL=gl
I am asking you to participate in this study because you are a frequent editor of pages on Wikipedia that are of political interest. We would like to learn about your experiences in dealing with editors of different political orientations.
Sincere thanks for your help! Porteclefs (talk) 17:02, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
