Thank you for opening the discussion. In our research group <https://grasia.fdi.ucm.es/newmain/language/en/>, we are working specifically on this.
You can get a lot of good ideas and pointers to other research from the Wikimedia research page <https://research.wikimedia.org/community-health.html> and from the last Inspire Campaign of Wikimedia, which it was precisely about Measuring editing community health: https://meta.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Inspire Thank you also Marc for sharing your ideas, they are very interesting. We have already been working with inequality metrics <http://www.opensym.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/OpenSym2018_paper_31-1.pdf> .
