Since this topic has came out several times recently, I've decided to update the WP:ACST (Wikipedia in academic studies) page on Wikipedia. It now has about 200 publications. It is still not comprehensive, but after tripling it size over the past few days I hope it collects close to or more than 75% of relevant publications out there.
Since it is a wiki page, it is easily updatable by us all (hint). It certainly could benefit from further additions, if you are familiar with any that are missing, as well as copyedit (double check the links; find missing keywords; standarize author's names; standarize conference names and publications outlets). Since it is a Wikipedia page, there is no chance it will ever go down and the effort of contributing to it be wasted (like apparently has happened with http://bibliography.wikimedia.de/ - do we even know who is/was responsible for maintaining that tool?). Combined with sortable table, optional abstracts and keywords, I do think that WP:ACST is THE ultimate Wikipedia research bibliography. Certainly we would benefit from agreeing on a single site we should contribute to; the current state with several sites collecting wikipedia related bibliography, mostly unlinked to each other, with partial overlapping, most missing much of what any other has (I have looked through all of the ones linked here so far, cannibalizing them for WP:ACST, and hence I stick by the above comment) is hardly helpful. As with online encyclopedias, I think it makes much sense that "one should rule them all" :) The page in question can be found at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_in_academic_studies -- Piotr Konieczny "The problem about Wikipedia is, that it just works in reality, not in theory." _______________________________________________ Wiki-research-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wiki-research-l
