 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.

 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!
