Hi everyone,
As a researcher who is interested in the sociology of the wikipedia I am writing to see if you can suggest links or leads on information concerning research on wiki. Is there any central hub for 'wiki analysts' whether academic or media-related?
I have been looking for links within wikimedia but it seems that the information is quite scattered. Has anyone tried compiling a wiki-page for wiki researchers that is similar to the MIT opensource research center (http://opensource.mit.edu/)? Or is there any email list for wiki-related researchers? I'll definitely appreciate any advice or suggestion as I am still at a very preliminary phase of research. Thanks a lot for your attention in advance.
Best, Cathy

There isn't one central place for this, but the following links are some good places to start:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Wikidemia http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedistik

Thanks Angela!

Cathy (et al), those links that Angela gave are good but what needs to be done is to set up a research category in meta, which i am going to try to do. I'm also doing full-time research on Wikipedia and have some links on my user page [[:en:User:Cormaggio]]. I'd be interested in what your study is about if you want to drop a note on the Wikidemia page, or directly by email. Cormac

Sounds like a "Wikipsych" project could be interesting. ;-)
