Hi everyone,
This study was shared with me this morning and discusses how "informal
rewards" (barnstars) do make a significant impact on the contributions
and productivity of editors.

It's a quick read, and helps to solidify the research and theories that
a number of us have theorized about.
Give a little wikilove today to a new experienced editor, it really does
make a difference :)
