Hi all;
I saw the discussion about creating a site to compile all the literature about wikis many times in this mailing list in the past. It was discussed in WikiSym 2011 too.[1] As a wikipedian interested on wiki research and as a predoctoral student, I need to make a state of the art.
I have started WikiPapers[2] a wiki using Semantic MediaWiki, which is very powerful to establish relations between pages and to generate dynamic lists.[3] It doesn't only include papers, but info about tools and datasets, to replicate results.
From time to time, I post a backup link of the entire wiki in the mainpage,
in the case you want a copy or a disaster occurs ; ) So nothing will be lost (some previous efforts in this area finished losing all the info). When WikiPapers grows a bit more, I guess that some cool stats about itself could be generated, as researchers by country, most studied topics (and those with little literature), biases between English Wikipedia analysis and other wikis, etc.
I have added over 40 publications by now[4], you can subscribe to the RSS feeds[5] (the Firefox dynamic bookmark is great).
I'm not sure if you want to join to the effort : ). You are more than welcome to add your publications, tools and datasets. Any suggestion would be great.
Regards, emijrp
