Hi everybody,
We’re preparing for the June 2016 research newsletter and looking for contributors. Please take a look at: https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/WRN201606 and add your name next to any paper you are interested in covering. Our target publication date is Saturday July 2 UTC although actual publication might happen several days later. As usual, short notes and one-paragraph reviews are most welcome.
Highlights from this month: • This issue won’t be published before Saturday (May 28), possibly a bit later • Case study in political user behavior on Wikipedia • Combining syntactic patterns and Wikipedia's hierarchy of hyperlinks to extract meronym relations • Crowdsourcing not all sourced by the crowd: An observation on the behavior of Wikipedia participants • Customer relationship management practices in the online community – Wikipedia • Determining the influence of reddit posts on wikipedia pageviews • Digital History Meets Wikipedia: Analyzing Historical Persons in Wikipedia • Enriching Wikidata with Frame Semantics • Manipulating Google’s Knowledge Graph Box to Counter Biased Information Processing During an Online Search on Vaccination: Application of a Technological Debiasing Strategy • Quality Assessment of Wikipedia Articles Without Feature Engineering • The double power law in human collaboration behavior: The case of Wikipedia • Visualizations of relationships among knowledge?
