Data on arbitration, mediation, voting
by Ofer Arazy 07 Dec '18

07 Dec '18

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

Research around the use of MassMessages extension
by Florence Devouard 05 Dec '18

05 Dec '18

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

Re: [Wiki-research-l] [Wikimedia-l] Page views of male/female biographies?

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."
