Do it, Boson!
Other categories or data points to sort out... city, state, urban/suburban/rural, mobile shop, nonprofit, paid staff vs volunteer only, date founded/opened. I'm trying to think of things researchers have asked, as well as what new shop founders would want to know. Also, I'm interested in the models we've tested so these new shop founders could see that, for example and hypothetically, if they are in a rural area, then a mobile shop may be best and it can run on volunteer power.

I think this is a great idea Rachael and Anibal.
I added Velocipede. If no one minds I can start fleshing out a square for "bicycle collective" with stuff like location, mission statement and yes/no columns like "build-a-bike" "youth-programs" "women/trans night" etc...

For the love of spreadsheets, this thing is great! try putting in bottom brackets, then start adding columns like length. Then imagine this thing eating up sheldon browns site and the sutherland manual. compatibility tables, distributor lists, The mind reels with possibilities.
thanks rachael! -Anibal

For the computery types on the list..
If you enter "community bike shop" (or bicycle collective, etc) into Google Squared, a nifty spreadsheet comes up with a handful of our shops. If anyone wants to take it on, it could be expanded to include everyone and all sorts of useful info. It might be a good way to answer some frequently asked questions, like "who has a youth earn-a-bike program?" or "what's your mission statement?".
