Wikipedia:WikiProject Research

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This project, Research, is a space for researchers who are studying Wikipedia to interact with the Wikipedia community to discuss ideas, collaborate with each other and ensure that the methods used for gathering data and recruiting subjects account for the needs and norms of the community.
