Topic Pages: Plos Computational Biology Meets Wikipedia - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2012, written by Daniel Mietchen, Andrew M. Collings, Robert B. Russell, Philip E. Bourne and Philip E. Bourne.
Overview
While there has been much debate about the coverage and quality of Wikipedia (starting with an article in 2005 [1]), there is no doubt about its value (and increasing role) as a reference source and starting point for in-depth research. For example, within the biomedical sciences, there have been recent articles about the accuracy and completeness of drug information in Wikipedia [2], Wikipedia as a source of information in nursing care [3] and mental disorders [4], and making biological databases available through Wikipedia [5].
