'''Ideological Segregation Among Online Collaborators: Evidence from Wikipedians''' - scientific work related to [[Wikipedia quality]] published in 2016, written by [[Shane Greenstein]], [[Yuan Gu]] and [[Feng Zhu]].

== Overview ==
Do online communities segregate into separate conversations about “contestable knowledge”? Authors analyze the contributors of biased and slanted content in [[Wikipedia]] articles about U.S. politics, and focus on two research questions: (1) Do contributors display tendencies to contribute to topics with similar or opposing bias and slant? (2) Do contributors learn from experience with extreme or neutral content, and does that experience change the slant and bias of their contributions over time? Despite heterogeneity in contributors and their contributions, authors find an overall trend towards less segregated conversations. Contributors tend to edit articles with slants that are the opposite of their own views, and the slant from experienced contributors becomes less extreme over time. The experienced contributors with the most extreme biases decline the most. Authors also find some significant differences between Republicans and Democrats.
