- Is there any chance that Dennis Hwang can give us a heads-up a month or so in advance, so that we can improve the coverage of a start class article to something more appropriate for 9m hits? Josh Parris 10:24, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- @Josh Parris: Yeah. It is really required for sure. - Jayadevp13 11:22, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Who would "us" be in that case? They probably would need a trusted set of contacts who can drive interest/editing to the right articles without spilling the beans, and I'm wondering who that would be in this case. -LuisVilla (talk) 15:30, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Let's pretend the forthcoming doodle subject becomes public knowledge. What would happen? Competitors would change their doodles, to bring one up a day early? Josh Parris 21:09, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- You realize that Devi was recently on a Google Doodle too, right? And worldwide. Ego White Tray (talk) 16:48, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- AFAIK, Google Chrome has also made some changes (a few weeks ago) that result in the doodle being seen in the new tab page in Chrome (at least for some users with some particular combination of settings), so I guess more people are going to see Google Doodles than before.

- It's interesting that Doodle drive so much traffic to Wikipedia articles. I was thinking that, since Google started taking excerpts of articles and facts/figures to provide snippets of info at the top of results pages, Wikipedia traffic might slightly decrease. With more and more doodles, however, I've been wrong in my theory. Killiondude (talk) 07:46, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- For me, it started a few weeks ago with Chrome. I use to do Google searches from the toolbar but now I get a miniature version of Google.com that shows me the day's doodle. I use to only find out about unusual doodles the day after they were posted but now I've seen all of the recent ones. Liz Read! Talk! 21:23, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
