Bipartite Networks of Wikipedia's Articles and Authors: a Meso-Level Approach - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2009, written by Rut Jesus, Martin Schwartz and Sune Lehmann.
Overview
This exploratory study investigates the bipartite network of articles linked by common editors in Wikipedia, 'The Free Encyclopedia that Anyone Can Edit'. Authors use the articles in the categories (to depth three) of Physics and Philosophy and extract and focus on significant editors (at least 7 or 10 edits per each article). Authors construct a bipartite network, and from it, overlapping cliques of densely connected articles and editors. Authors cluster these densely connected cliques into larger modules to study examples of larger groups that display how volunteer editors flock around articles driven by interest, real-world controversies, or the result of coordination in WikiProjects. Authors results confirm that topics aggregate editors; and show that highly coordinated efforts result in dense clusters.
