In an effort to answer the question, “Who is using MediaWiki?” the MediaWiki Stakeholders’ Group has organized a survey.
We wanted to hear from existing MediaWiki users and ask that you complete this short survey about your use of MediaWiki. The results of the survey will help by providing input that should influence the future development of MediaWiki. We also hope to grow the community of MediaWiki Users and improve involvement.
The preliminary results of this survey were anonymized and shared with the public at the MediaWiki Stakeholders' session at Wikimania 2015 and will be posted to MediaWiki.org at a later date. An anonymized data set will be available for download as well. This survey is separated into two parts and should take about 10 minutes to complete.
The survey closed on Friday, July 31st. Results have been published in a MediaWiki Usage Report

Wishlist[edit | edit source]
Another outcome of the survey was fortifying our prioritized list of most requested MediaWiki features for third-party users. This list was put together after feedback from MediaWiki users was combined with the most requested improvements from the survey. It is a work-in-progress, but does a sizable job in summarizing the improvements that would most benefit MediaWiki users - as described by active, current users.
