(cross-posting for those of you who are not following the WMF blog)

We've just released in the public domain a curated corpus with the bibliographic references of all 225 publications covered in the Wikimedia Research Newsletter, vol. 2 (2012), forming a historical record of Wikipedia research in the last year. [1] The corpus can be browsed on Zotero [2] or downloaded as a bibtex file from the DataHub. [3]

We also released a 95-page PDF with the full text of the 12 issues published in 2012 [4].

The newsletter would not exist without the help of the following contributors that we wish to acknowledge for posting reviews and research summaries in 2012:

Aaron Shaw, Adam Hyland, Amir E. Aharoni, Angelika Adam, Bence Damokos, Benjamin Mako Hill, Daniel Mietchen, Diederik van Liere, Evan Rosen, Heather Ford, Giovanni Luca Ciampaglia, Jodi Schneider, User:Lambiam, Nicolas Jullien, Oren Bochman, Phoebe Ayers, Piotr Konieczny, Sage Ross, Steven Walling, Taha Yasseri.
