Hi Pine, The book *Building Successful Online Communities: Evidence Based Social Design*[1] provides a great synthesis of concepts from economics, sociology, and cognitive psychology as they apply to the design of projects like Wikipedia. In fact, Wikipedia is one of the primary case studies used in the book. They have several chapters that focus on motivation techniques/tools. The book is easy to skim and apply!
Hope that helps, Jonathan 1. https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/building-successful-online-communities On Mon, Oct 5, 2015 at 7:42 PM, Pine W <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > Some of us plan to have a conversation at the WCONUSA unconference > sessions about ENWP culture.
