Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.

Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information. Changes to SuggestBot's suggestionsWe have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:

Help on AIG articleThe Cerabot posted banners that are unwarranted. Would you kindly take a look at the references? Documenting an encyclopedic chronology and sourcing public information and data from the US Department of Treasury is a verifiable and highly authoritative source. The research conducted shows AIG sent out press releases but no business media wrote articles on each instance of loan repayment or stock sale. Removing the banners makes a lot more sense at this point, would you agree? Thanks for helping out.Hiland109 (talk) 18:04, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

Marking cerabot changesDear Ceradon, thanks for your very helpful bot's work on Wikipedia. The bot's changes are currently displayed on changelog as having been made by a human. Would you be able to change it as having been made by a bot? The current situation is very confusing, and so forth. Yours, LT90001 (talk) 10:49, 1 July 2013 (UTC) Disambiguation link notification for July 1Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Mitchell Grobb, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Carberry (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
