Searching the WikiLit site for "social network" (in quotes) also brings up many
relevant studies (though there are a few false matches):

There's a good amount of research
Jullien 2012 has an excellent (although by no means exhaustive) lit review of
extant Wikipedia research including many network analysis papers:
http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2053597
Welser, et al. 2011 use network analysis approaches to identify and
differentiate users social roles:

Antin, et al. 2012 use some centrality-like metrics to measure the diversity of
editing behavior:

I am a brand new Master's student at Purdue. For my Social Network Analysis
class, I'm thinking about doing a project about whether a Wikipedian's
centrality in a network can be used as a predictor of future participation.
I've spent the afternoon looking for relevant literature. I found the very
interesting
"Validity Issues in the Use of Social Network Analysis with Digital Trace Data"
by Howison, Wiggins, and Crowston
and
"Network analysis of collaboration structure in Wikipedia" by Brandes et al.
I'm wondering if there are other papers about how to translate Wikipedia into a
network structure, or even more specifically relating to node-level centrality
measures and participation measures.
Very many thanks,
Jeremy Foote
