Heute ist der Tag der Wikipedia-Wissenschaft: Als Preprint ist nunVoss, Jakob (2005) Measuring Wikipedia. In Proceedings 10th International Conference of the International Society for Scientometrics and Informetrics 2005, Stockholm (Sweden) erschienen. (PDF)Aus dem Abstract:(...) The version history of all articles is freely available and allows a multitude of examinations. This paper gives an overview on Wikipedia research. Wikipedia's fundamental components, i.e. articles, authors, edits, and links, as well as content and quality are analysed. Possibilities of research are explored including examples and first results. Several characteristics that are found in Wikipedia, such as exponential growth and scale-free networks are already known in other context. However the Wiki architecture also possesses some intrinsic specialities. General trends are measured that are typical for all Wikipedias but vary between languages in detail.
