IEP project interview
[edit]I requested explicitly that my interview be conducted on my talk page, which you acknowledged here. Is there any reason why you and/or the Foundation felt the need to conduct it via email; if so, why? MER-C 11:15, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi. I'm happy to do the questions on your talk page. I am not a Wikipedian, and email is easier for me, so if all things were equal, I'd do it by email. In your case and also in Danger's case, I'll do the interview on your talk pages. I'm in the field now doing interviews on the ground in India. When I have a moment in transit tomorrow evening, India Standard Time, I'll be posting a summary of my work plan. Please assume good faith with my work. I am very good at what I do, and I have a lot of integrity. I respect Wikipedia, and all of the people who contribute to it.Toryread (talk) 12:26, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
- Don't worry. It's the Foundation that I have little confidence in. MER-C 13:13, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks.Toryread (talk) 14:16, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
I'm a bit behind in composing the question set for Admin emails and talk pages. I'm juggling in-person interviews on the ground in India with skype calls, emails, email lists, talk pages, telephone interviews. I should have the questions posted to you in your various preferred modes within three days. I had a terrific conversation on skype video (my personal preferred mode of interviewing, if not face-to-face) with Kupung last night. Very useful, informative, fun. I'm looking forward to input from all of you.Toryread (talk) 04:21, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi, Tory. I just stumbled upon this list by accident (it was briefly mentioned at Wikipedia talk:India Education Program#Pilot Analysis Plan) and saw that my WP account name is spelled wrong in there. No problem unless you'd use this list to contact me. ;-) You can contact me via the email function on my user page. When you do, please also add a quick note on the talk page as I don't check that email account frequently. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 00:04, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Thank you Tory, for your work on analyzing the IEP. Your term as honorary Wikipedian was brief, but much appreciated, and thus, I thank you in the way of my people. Danger High voltage! 01:31, 26 January 2012 (UTC) |
