| Aug 28, 2012 at 20:57 | comment | added | msanford | @JeroenEijkhof Which of the two that I suggested are you referring to, or are you referring to the idea of paper-and-pen in general? I made the clipboard-and-pencil suggestion based on the OP's question edit, which suggested that he is requesting his users to fill out a form. I would wager that the clipboard is quite closely linked to the idea of a form... | |

| Aug 26, 2012 at 3:37 | comment | added | Anna Rouben | I would be curious to see if users can distinguish quickly edit icon from a clipboard. I think pencil is a strong edit metaphor so when users see anything with pencil they just think "edit" right away. Little clipboard details might be ignored. I am hypothesizing :) | |

Added clipboard.

| Aug 24, 2012 at 15:22 | comment | added | msanford | Good point @TJH: that could be mitigated by styling the form as a clipboard, which my gut tells me is recognizable as a metaphor for a survey, rather than 'edit this content'. | |
| Aug 24, 2012 at 15:20 | comment | added | TJH | What do you think about the 'Edit' connotations? | |
