Found the paper on welcoming newcomers to WikiProjects that I'm certain is also relevant here, it's this one: Choi, Boreum, et al. "Socialization Tactics in Wikipedia and Their Effects." CSCW, 2010. http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.424.7966&rep=re...

Hi Florence,
A paper by Zhu et al spring to mind, as well as the study of phrasing in template messages by Geiger et al. Although these focus on one-to-one communication on Wiki rather than mass communication, I think they'll be relevant. I think there's also a paper about invitations to join WikiProjects that looks at personalized vs templated messages, but I
cannot
find it at the moment.
Zhu, H., Kraut, R.E., & Kittur, A., (2013) Effects of Peer Feedback on Contribution: A Field Experiment in Wikipedia. CHI, 2013.
Defense Mechanism or Socialization Tactic? Improving Wikipedia's Notifications to Rejected Contributors by Geiger, Halfaker, Pinchuk, and Walling. ICWSM 2012.

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
