Re. non-English Wikipedia and editor retention:
I ran a large-scale field experiment in and *with* the community of Swiss
editors. We show that purely symbolic awards that provide social
recognition increase newcomer retention by 20%, and the effect persists for
over a year after initial award receipt:
Gallus, J. (2017). "Fostering public good contributions with symbolic
awards: A large-scale natural field experiment at Wikipedia

Would you mind sharing the eventual article with us? I greatly enjoyed
following this thread and look forward to the article.

Dear all,
A Swedish professor is writing a piece on Wikipedia for Sweden's largest
daily newspaper, for the upcoming 20 years anniversary. She asked me for
"interesting and widespread studies" on Wikipedia – not necessarily within
any certain focus.
If you would share 2 or 3 studies, that have gained some attention and
that
you find interesting, which would these be?
Would be very happy for any help!
