Thought this list might be interested in some of the research coming out of the Wiki Education Foundation today. What portion of academic content are student editors in the USA/Canada contributing to English Wikipedia through course assignments? Here’s what we learned:

For those who want to dive deep, there's more information on meta:

Our Data Science intern Kevin Schiroo has done some great work exploring our dashboard and generating new datasets (you can find more here). I'll note that this doesn't quite replicate or internationalize, as it's based on the English Wikipedia (and therefore English-language sourcing and academic terms). Nonetheless, it's definitely interesting work.
