Measuring Wikipedia + Stellentauschgesuch.



Measuring Wikipedia

Voss, Jakob (2005) Measuring Wikipedia. In Proceedings 10th
International Conference of the International Society for
Scientometrics and Informetrics 2005, Stockholm.

Wikipedia, an international project that uses Wiki software to
collaboratively create an encyclopaedia, is becoming more and
more popular. Everyone can directly edit articles and every edit is
recorded. The version history of all articles is freely available and
allows a multitude of examinations. This paper gives an overview on
Wikipedia research. Wikipedia?s fundamental components, i.e.
articles, authors, edits, and links, as well as content and quality
are analysed. Possibilities of research are explored including
examples and first results. Several characteristics that are found in
Wikipedia, such as exponential growth and scale-free networks are
already known in other context. However the Wiki architecture also
possesses some intrinsic specialities. General trends are
measured that are typical for all Wikipedias but vary between
languages in detail.

Hi,

sorry, falls schon bekannt. Und auch klar, FWDs sind manchmal
schon bekannt, aber die lesenswerte Liste lis = lib-info-society at
yahoogroups.com hat 100+ tln.; da dürfte die Überschneidung so
gross nicht sein.

Noch was anderes: ich habe gestern ein Stellentauschgesuch
einer Bibliothekarin, die von Münster i.W. nach Stuttgart möchte an
die AKI-list geschickt. mehr: http://www.aki-stuttgart.de - dann ins
offene Archiv der AKI-list. Oder gleich per Deep Link
