Research:Two factor authentication uptake on the English Wikipedia
This page is an incomplete draft of a research project.
Information is incomplete and is likely to change substantially before the project starts.
The Wikimedia Foundation introduced two-factor authentication in November 2016 for administrators and other high-risk user groups - this research hopes to identify overall uptake of the feature and address some of the reasons preventing editors from enabling it.
Methods edit
During this research I hope to survey a number of administrators and run database queries to find the percentage of administrators who have enabled and use two-factor authentication, and identify possible issues and concerns which are preventing more from using it.
Timeline edit
TBD
Policy, Ethics and Human Subjects Research edit
As I will be requesting volunteers to fill out the two-factor authentication survey this will not dramatically affect the project. I will be contacting administrators by their talk page.
