[WikiEN-l] First monday study
This study examines credibility judgments in relation to peripheral cues and genre of Wikipedia articles, and attempts to understand user information verification behavior based on the theory of bounded rationality. Data were collected employing both an experiment and a survey at a large public university in the midwestern United States in Spring 2010. This study shows some interesting patterns. It appears that the effect of peripheral cues on credibility judgments differed according to genre. Those who did not verify information displayed a higher level of satisficing than those who did. Students used a variety of peripheral cues of Wikipedia. The exploratory data show that peer endorsement may be more important than formal authorities for user generated information sources, such as Wikipedia, which calls for further research. http://firstmonday.org/htbin/cgiwrap/bin/ojs/index.php/fm/article/view/3263/2860 -- -- Til uvedkommende, der læser med: Der er ingen grund til at læse min mail.

Re: [WikiEN-l] How to get a static English HTML dump from Wikipedia
2008/11/13 raghu0891 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I downloaded the whole english wikipedia from this link http://static.wikipedia.org/downloads/2008-06/en/wikipedia-en-html.tar.7z. When I tried to unzip the file using 7-zip, its giving a 'File is Broken' error. Any suggestion, or alternate method to get the english static html wikipedia dump will be appreciated. The file is about 14GB.
