G'day folks,
Researchers at IBM's Visual Comnunication Lab have published an interesting paper called "Talk Before You Type: Coordination in Wikipedia" at the 40th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences held recently.

This is indeed an interesting study. I wonder - do we have a page that lists all citable academic studies of wikipedia published in journals or conference proceedings? Of course it would not be in article space. It would be a usefull help for anyone writing an article on wikipedia. If we do not have such a page, should we? and what do we call it? [[Wikipedia:Academic studies on Wikipedia]]?

It shows an interesting representation of edit wars and looks at a strong growth in talk and user talk pages. It was posted on Chris Lott's blog which is also worth a look.
