G'day folks,
Researchers at IBM's Visual Comnunication Lab have published an
interesting
paper called "Talk Before You Type:
Coordination in Wikipedia" at the
40th
Hawaii International Conference on System
Sciences held recently.

This is indeed an interesting study. I wonder - do we have a page that
lists all citable academic studies of wikipedia published in journals or
conference proceedings? Of course it would not be in article space. It
would be a usefull help for anyone writing an article on wikipedia. If
we do not have such a page, should we? and what do we call it?
[[Wikipedia:Academic studies on Wikipedia]]?
Hi Brian,
there is
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_in_academic_studies>,
which is, as it says, "incomplete". As for studies
including-but-not-limited-to Wikipedia, you can see
<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Research_Bibliography>, as well
as an excellent bibliography, using Wikindx (and linked to from that
page), but apparently down for some time now. I'm including Jakob Voss
in this mail, to see if he can tell us more - generally, that would be
my first stop - no question..
Many thanks. I thought the first one was about using wikipedia in
studies, not studies of wikipedia, so I did not go there. It needs the
artcile that started this (the meta artcile already has it), so I'll add
it.
Cheers, Brian.
Cheers,
Cormac
