The Double Power Law in Human Collaboration Behavior: the Case of Wikipedia - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2016, written by Okyu Kwon, Woo-Sik Son and Woo-Sung Jung.

Overview

Authors study human behavior in terms of the inter-event time distribution of revision behavior on Wikipedia, an online collaborative encyclopedia. Authors observe a double power law distribution for the inter-editing behavior at the population level and a single power law distribution at the individual level. Although interactions between users are indirect or moderate on Wikipedia, authors determine that the synchronized editing behavior among users plays a key role in determining the slope of the tail of the double power law distribution.
