Becoming Wikipedian: Transformation of Participation in a Collaborative Online Encyclopedia - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2005, written by Susan L. Bryant, Andrea Forte and Amy Bruckman.
Overview
Traditional activities change in surprising ways when computer-mediated communication becomes a component of the activity system. In this descriptive study, authors leverage two perspectives on social activity to understand the experiences of individuals who became active collaborators in Wikipedia, a prolific, cooperatively-authored online encyclopedia. Legitimate peripheral participation provides a lens for understanding participation in a community as an adaptable process that evolves over time. Authors use ideas from activity theory as a framework to describe results. Finally, authors describe how activity on the Wikipedia stands in striking contrast to traditional publishing and suggests a new paradigm for collaborative systems.
