Hi!

I am a) writing a student research paper and b) going to have a lecture on a german linux-congress about Wikipedia. Has there anybody done this before? I know the lecture of Kurt Janson last year on 19C3 in Berlin but is there no newer stuff? Well I know what to write and talk but I am just wondering why there are so little (=practically no) scientific publications or conference papers (=everything but simple newspaper articles) on Wikipedia yet. On the other hand I don´t mind if I am the first one ;-)

The only references I found (up to now):

Thanks a lot Jakob Voss / nichtich

Hi,

I've given lectures on Wikipedia (in Esperanto) in Brazil, France, Czech Republic, Belgium, Netherlands and Sweden before, so if you need help preparing your lecture, feel free to ask. Probably early next year I'll be lecturing in Warsaw (Polland). I wrote a scientific publication for the book: Fakaj Studoj en Esperanto (Specialist Studies in Esperanto) which has summaries in English, German and Czech. If you can read Esperanto, you can read the original text at: http://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikipedio:KAEST_prelego

If you want to see the Esperanto articles I've written about Wikipedia, you can find links from my userpage at http://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikipediisto:Chuck_SMITH

Also, an Esperanto radio interview can be found at http://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikipedio:Intervjuo_%C4%89e_Radio_Polonia (transcription and sound files).

Now I have a question: is there a place in the English Wikipedia to put these links? If so, are they already there?

Best wishes, Chuck
