Hi everyone,
As part of my research on governance mechanisms in Wikipedia, I'm looking
for data regarding mediation, arbitration, and polls.
Are records of mediation and arbitration committees (dates, the article,
decisions) and on voting readily available?
How could I gain access to this data?
I'm particularly interested on data regarding the Gdansk article (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gda%C5%84sk), but would be happy to retrieve
data for other articles as well.
Thanks in advance,
Ofer Arazy
Hello everyone,
I was interested to know whether there has been any research done around
the use of the Mass Message mediawiki extension and in particular about
impact of using it.
By extension, I am interested in any research that might be related to
the impact of posting a "template" message (as opposed to an individual
targetted) on a user talk page.
I know the SignPost did a poll in 2017 to evaluate the interest of
switching to the Newsletter extension system. And I remember reading
about impact of notifications. But are there studies related to the
measure of impact in terms of engagement to mass posting on user talk page ?
Thanks for any insight you could provide
Florence
Forwarding to Research-l in case this is of interest to others.

Hello,
We are organizing a workshop on Data Quality Management in Wikidata
(http://wikidata-quality-workshop.org) on January 18th, 2019 in Berlin
(Office of Wikimedia Deutschland).
The workshop will give scientific researchers and the Wikidata community
members the opportunity to discuss and present preliminary findings,
ideas, opinions, and demos.
We have an open call for abstracts (submission deadline December 6, 2018),
and will give the authors of accepted abstracts the opportunity to submit
a full paper (by March 2019).
Best,
The workshop team

Hi Micru,
in general, there may be better venues to ask this kind of question, e.g.
the Wiki-research-l and Gendergap mailing lists (both CCed). But for a
partial answer, the paper by Marit Hinnosaar reviewed here looks at these
stats (if not their long-term trend):
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Newsletter/2015/December#Does_adve…
E.g. "On a typical (median) day in September 2014, no one read 26 percent
of the biographies of men versus only 16 percent of the biographies of
women."
