Hi everybody,
with CSCW just concluded and conferences like CHI and WWW coming up we have a good set of papers to review for the February issue of the Research Newsletter [1]
Please take a look at: https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/WRN201402 and add your name next to any paper you are interested in reviewing. As usual, short notes and one-paragraph reviews are most welcome.
Instead of contacting past contributors only, this month we’re experimenting with a public call for reviews cross-posted to analytics-l and wiki-research-l. if you have any question about the format or process feel free to get in touch off-list.
Dario Taraborelli and Tilman Bayer
Dario, what's the timeframe for writing reviews so they can get into the signpost in time. 25th?

Hi Max,
yes, we're co-publishing with the Signpost, so the ultimate deadline is the Signpost's actual publication time. Its formal publication date is this Wednesday (the 26th) UTC, although actual publication might take place several hours or even a few days later. Thanks for signing up to review the "Editor's Biases" paper, I'm looking forward to reading your summary!

Thanks, Dario, Tilman!
I was wondering whether it would be helpful to add reviewer names/usernames to individual signpost reviews. I was struck while reading a review of a paper on Signpost recently that I felt like the reviewer was inserting some very opinionated statements about the article rather than the regular summaries. While I don't think that this is a problem necessarily (although I wish that they were a bit more informed about the topic and social science research in general), I do think it can be problematic to have these comments unattributed. Would be interested to hear what others think...

Hi Heather,
that's a cool idea, and we have actually been considering something like this already. While the names of the reviewers are prominently displayed in the byline on top (and also, many readers of the Signpost and the newsletter are of course experienced in reading version histories), showing them next to each review might be make attribution easier. We just haven't found the time to implement it yet, like with many other things for the newsletter. You are welcome to figure out a suitable format and add these attributions in the upcoming issue, let's follow up offlist if more information is needed.

Hi Max :)
Thanks for adding your name to the review! Not quite sure I understand your question about other wiki sites that we could emulate? The research newsletter is pretty much single author per review so it's not really done in a 'wiki way' (e.g. by many authors producing a single review) other than using wiki software so I don't think anything is needed other than simply adding the byline next to the headline of the review as well as to at the top of the newsletter as per current practice.
I'm thinking that these bylines wouldn't be needed for the snippets but rather for the more significant reviews.
What do you think?
Or were you asking about other methods of actually producing the signpost?

Hi Juliana,
yes, English-language summaries of papers in other languages are welcome - in the draft for the current issue you can already see a review of a German paper that discusses Wikipedia's linguistic norms and style as a case study for the development of academic language, and on the Etherpad todo list there's a Russian language paper that claims to have discovered "unacceptable logic violations" in the English Wikipedia's category graph.
