Democratizing Scientific Vulgarization. the Balance Between Cooperation and Conflict in French Wikipedia - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2007, written by Nicolas Auray, Céline Poudat and Pascal Pons.

Overview

The free online encyclopedia project Wikipedia has become in less than six years one of the most prominent commons-based peer production example. The present study investigates the patterns of involvement and the patterns of cooperation within the French version of the encyclopaedia. In that respect, authors consider different groups of users, highlighting the opposition between passerby contributors and core members, and authors attempt to evaluate for each class of contributors the main motivations for their participation to the project. Then, authors study the qualitative and quantitative patterns of cowriting and the correlation between size and quality of the production process.
