Hi all,
The ACM conference on Computer-Supported Cooperative Work and Social
Computing (CSCW) usually publishes a lot of wiki and Wikimedia related
research. The 2014 Call for Papers is out, see below.

CALL FOR PAPERS, COMPUTER-SUPPORTED COOPERATIVE WORK AND SOCIAL
COMPUTING 2014 (CSCW 2014)
Baltimore, MD, Feb 15-19,
2014http://cscw.acm.org
CSCW is an international and interdisciplinary conference focused on
how technology intersects with social practices. To support diverse
and high-quality contributions, CSCW employs a two-phase review
process and does not impose an arbitrary length limit on submissions.
IMPORTANT DATES
* May 31, 5:00pm PDT, 2013: Submission due
* July 6: First-round notification (Revise & Resubmit or Reject)
* July 26, 5:00pm PDT: Revised papers due
* August 23: Final notifications
We invite submissions that detail existing practices or inform the
design or deployment of systems or introduce novel systems,
interaction techniques, or algorithms. The scope of CSCW includes, but
is not limited to, social computing and social media,
technologically-enabled or enhanced communication, education
technologies, crowdsourcing, multi-user input technologies,
collaboration, information sharing, and coordination. It includes
socio-technical activities at work, in the home, in education, in
healthcare, in the arts, for socializing and for entertainment. New
results or new ways of thinking about, studying or supporting shared
activities can be in these and related areas:
- Social and crowd computing. Studies, theories, designs, mechanisms,
systems, and/or infrastructures addressing social media, social
networking, user-generated content, wikis, blogs, online gaming,
crowdsourcing, collective intelligence, virtual worlds, collaborative
information seeking, etc.
- System design. Hardware, architectures, infrastructures, interaction
design, technical foundations, algorithms, and/or toolkits that enable
the building of new social and collaborative systems and experiences.
- Theories and models. Critical analysis or organizing theory with
clear relevance to the design or study of social and collaborative
systems.
- Empirical investigations. Findings, guidelines, and/or ethnographic
studies relating to technologies, practices, or use of communication,
collaboration, and social technologies.
- Methodologies and tools. Novel methods or combinations of approaches
and tools used in building systems or studying their use.
- Domain-specific social and collaborative applications. Including for
healthcare, transportation, gaming (for enjoyment or productivity),
ICT4D, sustainability, education, accessibility, collective
intelligence, global collaboration, or other domains.
- Collaboration systems based on emerging technologies. Mobile and
ubiquitous computing, game engines, virtual worlds, multi-touch
technologies, novel display technologies, vision and gesture
recognition systems, big data infrastructures, MOOCs, crowd labor
markets, SNSes, sensor-based environments, etc.
- Crossing boundaries. Studies, prototypes, or other investigations
that explore interactions across disciplines, distance, languages,
generations, and cultures, to help better understand how to transcend
social, temporal, and/or spatial boundaries.
Papers should detail original research contributions. Papers must
report new research results that represent a contribution to the
field. They must provide sufficient details and support for their
results and conclusions. They must cite relevant published research or
experience, highlight novel aspects of the submission, and identify
the most significant contributions. Evaluation is on the basis of
originality, significance, quality of research, quality of writing,
and contribution to conference program diversity.
SUBMISSIONS
Paper submissions must be made via the Precision Conference System. A
link to the submission site will be made available by early May.
Papers will be presented at the CSCW conference and will be included
in the conference proceedings archived in the ACM Digital Library.
CSCW does not accept submissions that were published previously in
formally reviewed publications or that are currently submitted
elsewhere.
