Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Understanding the human factor in Community Notes is crucial for its evolution. Currently, there is little independent data on what drives contributors to stay active or what leads to friction in the process.

Describe the solution you'd like
As part of my PhD research at [Nom de ton Université], I am conducting a study on crowdsourced moderation. I’ve designed a short anonymous survey for Community Notes contributors to better understand:

  • Key motivations for participating.
  • Perceived barriers or frustrations in the "Notes" process.
  • Opinions on the evaluation system.

Survey Link:
https://hub.imt-atlantique.fr/limesurvey/index.php/465746?lang=en
(Time: ~5-7 min) All data is collected anonymously and for research purposes only.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I am analyzing public data, but direct feedback from the community is indispensable for understanding the "why" behind the data.

Additional context
I am committed to transparency: I will share a summary of the findings here once the study is complete, which may provide insights for design improvements.
