Hello,
I would also second Tkacz book as an analysis. Less well known but very interesting, since it has a lot of data detailed and structured, is E.A. Rijshouwer "Organizing Democracy : Power concentration and self-organization in the evolution of Wikipedia".

Hi everyone,
I'm currently doing a Ph.d on digital commons. I'm tracing the history of the "digital common" movement (if there is one). And I wanted to know if there are some studies about Wikipedians and their relation with the conceptual framework of the commons (do they feel like commoners ? Do
they
know E. Ostrom, etc.) Thanks a lot for your help ! Best regards,
Sébastien,
I'm guessing your aware of this paper by Cardon and Levrel :
Cardon, D., & Levrel, J. (2009). La vigilance participative. Une interprétation de la gouvernance de Wikipédia. Réseaux, 154(2), 51. https://doi.org/10.3917/res.154.0051
Though it specifically mentions Ostrom, the paper was more about attempting to translate Wikipedia pilars and rules into Ostrom's wording than an in-depth analysis of a (supposedly) community of commoners.
For more recent literature on a similar topic, I'd check Tkacz's book :
Tkacz, N. (2015). Wikipedia and the Politics of Openness. Retrieved from http://www.press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/W/bo19085555.html
Maybe you'll find something about the community and their sense of values.
