Thank you for forwarding this. I found it interesting. I will mention this 
research to some other editors on English Wikipedia who may also be interested.

Regarding posting announcements of published research in this email list: this 
email list's information page on Meta says in part, Typical on-topic posts 
include: * announcement of a new research project * discussions of methodology
* questions and answers about related projects, so your email is appropriate 
for this list according to the published standards.

Sincerely,

Re: [Wiki-research-l] WikiPapers: all the literature about wikis compiled in a... wiki

I saw the discussion about creating a site to compile all the literature
about wikis many times in this mailing list in the past. It was
discussed in WikiSym 2011 too.[1] As a wikipedian interested on wiki
research and as a predoctoral student, I need to make a state of the art.

I have started WikiPapers[2] a wiki using Semantic MediaWiki, which is
very powerful to establish relations between pages and to generate
dynamic lists.[3] It doesn't only include papers, but info about tools
and datasets, to replicate results.


It is unclear for me how your wiki are distinguished from Acawiki, that 
one also being a Semantic MediaWiki with academic summaries.




 From time to time, I post a backup link of the entire wiki in the
mainpage, in the case you want a copy or a disaster occurs ; ) So
nothing will be lost (some previous efforts in this area finished losing
all the info). When WikiPapers grows a bit more, I guess that some cool
stats about itself could be generated, as researchers by country, most
studied topics (and those with little literature), biases between
English Wikipedia analysis and other wikis, etc.

I have added over 40 publications by now[4], you can subscribe to the
RSS feeds[5] (the Firefox dynamic bookmark is great).


AcaWiki seems to have 22 summaries:

http://acawiki.org/index.php?title=Special:BrowseData/SummaryTag=Wikipedia

My Brede Wiki has 75 pages (most of which refers to academic papers):

http://neuro.imm.dtu.dk/wiki/Category:Wikipedia


I'm not sure if you want to join to the effort : ). You are more than
welcome to add your publications, tools and datasets. Any suggestion
would be great.


You are using the same license as I am on the Brede Wiki, so you could 
copy page from my wiki to yours (or vice versa). I have been talking to 
the AcaWiki people about exchanging summaries, but we haven't set up a 
service for that yet.


When you are using title as the identifier for the paper I have found it 
good to have a consistent rule for upper and lower case to have a as 
predictable title as possible. I use lower case as much as possible.


Acawiki, yours and my wiki seem to use different fields in the MediaWiki 
template for describing a paper. My template uses fields that tries to 
align with Wikipedia's cite journal templates.

 Hi Emijrp,


Hi Finn. Congrats for your survey draft, it is the most complete wiki
survey by now. Are you working on it yet?

It is unclear for me how your wiki are distinguished from Acawiki, that one
 also being a Semantic MediaWiki with academic summaries.


Acawiki is a wiki for papers about any topic. WikiPapers is about wikis
only, and also includes info about tools and datasets. Just like there is a
Wikipedia and city wikis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_wiki

AcaWiki seems to have 22 summaries:

 http://acawiki.org/index.php?**title=Special:BrowseData/**

 My Brede Wiki has 75 pages (most of which refers to academic papers):

 http://neuro.imm.dtu.dk/wiki/**Category:Wikipediahttp://neuro.imm.dtu.dk/wiki/Category:Wikipedia


Cool, I will look at those compilations. Thanks.

Yes. that is a solution, I'm planning to develop a bot to create redirects
with minor changes in capitalization, too

 I will look at that. I want to add some new fields as pages, volume,
issue, etc.
