That's really great!
I wish I could attend WikiSym this year (but the perils of being a poor
student prevail..)
Thanks for sharing this Phoebe!

Dear all,
You may know about WikiSym -- the international symposium on wikis and
open collaboration -- which is an annual research conference about
wikis. It is being held week after next in Mountain View, CA this
year. There is always a good deal of Wikipedia research presented at
WikiSym. This year I am very pleased that the best paper award (for
both short and long papers) went to two papers about gender and
Wikipedia:

The conference proceedings & full papers are not yet available, but
when they are I will be sure to send them along. it's so exciting to
see great research in this area! congratulations to the authors.
