• WikiProject Science - this is the Year of Science on Wikipedia, so it would be nice to feature this WikiProject. I'll conduct the interview and submit the request for interviewees myself, if that helps. I'm pinging Ed Erhart (WMF) since they said to let them know if I had any other interview ideas.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 21:26, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
  • Happy to work under the same arrangement as above! The blog and Signpost have mostly different audiences, so I don't think it'll hurt one or the other if we both publish. Thanks, 3family6. Ed Erhart (WMF) (talk) 21:37, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
