This graph image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.

It is recommended to name the SVG file “ActiveWikipedians.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.

Strategy based on strategy:file:Wikimedia Participation Goal.png from Movement_Priorities#Increase_participation:

Key Indicators	Possible Targets	Other Measures
Significant growth in number of active contributors.	150,000 by 2015^{[note 1]} (10% annual growth in emerging projects and less than 5% overall negative change in active volunteer editors among mature projects. Recruiting new editors in mature projects and growth of emerging projects.^{[note 2]} Retention rate of active volunteers	Increase the number of editors who have engaged in talk page discussion. Reduce abandoned edits. (An abandoned edit is when editors click the edit button without clicking the save button.)
The proportion of editors in under-represented groups increases.
Healthy, open source developer community
Growing and thriving Wikimedia Chapters	* Number of effective chapters
Notes: ↑ Current baseline: 100,000 active contributors (February 2010). ↑ "Mature" and "emerging" projects have not been rigorously defined.
