'''Determinants of Wikipedia Quality: The Roles of Global and Local Contribution Inequality''' - scientific work about [[Wikipedia quality]] published in 2010, written by [[Ofer Arazy]] and [[Oded O.V. Nov]].

== Overview ==
The success of [[Wikipedia]] and the relative high quality of its articles seem to contradict conventional wisdom. Recent studies have begun shedding light on the processes contributing to Wikipedia's success, highlighting the role of coordination and contribution inequality. In this study, authors expand on these works in two ways. First, authors make a distinction between global (Wikipedia-wide) and local (article-specific) inequality and investigate both constructs. Second, authors explore both direct and indirect effects of these inequalities, exposing the intricate relationships between global inequality, local inequality, coordination, and article quality. Authors tested their hypotheses on a sample of a Wikipedia articles using structural equation modeling and found that global inequality exerts significant positive impact on article quality, while the effect of local inequality is indirect and is mediated by coordination.
