Dear colleagues, Here a remark/question(s) about the way how we keep record in the Wikimedia movement with regard to research papers and books about wiki related topics. It seems to me that we have several pages for collaborative collecting the titles. For example, my first look would lead me to a bibliography page on Meta-Wiki [1]. But we have also such a page on Englisch WP [2] and on German WP, even two [3] etc. Sometimes the pages have different goals: do they collect "all" literature" or only "relevant" titles or titles in a specific language; or are they rather a list of "recommended" works etc. Often, the pages are obviously incomplete and not up to date. Some end with the year 2019 (or actually, were not continued in the Corona times?). What do you think? Did I simply not find the "right" page? Or what would be the best solution for creating one single page or database of wiki related works? Including machine readable information about language, specific sub topic, links to reviews etc.? And, of course, there remains the question what is actually a wiki related work. Often a book does not have "wiki" in its title but deals with "online creation communities" or "peer production" or "social media" and has a large chapter on wikis.
