Hello,

At the moment I am writing about the Wikipedia rules with regard to research. some researchers are interested in Wikipedia talk pages, others want to interview Wikipedians, others again make „experiments“ within the wiki in order to watch Wikipedians‘ reactions.

Researchers try to stick to some general ethics such as respecting anonymity and not causing harm.

The CC licences do not seem to relate to research; the Terms of Use a little bit.

To my knowledge, only Wikipedia in English has some specific lines about research in its set of rules (e.g. with the advice to disclose research interests on a user page). Do you know about research related rules in other language versions?

Kind regards, Ziko
