Title:
- Nontraditional Scholarship: Evaluation and Citation
Theme:
- Reliability of Information
+ Inclusion and Diversity
Type of session:
- Panel
Abstract:
Beyond traditional brand-name academic publishers like Wiley and Oxford University Press, how do Wikipedians know when to trust new genres of scholarly research output? Innovative, open-source publishing platforms such as Omeka, Scalar, Open Science Framework, and MIT's PubPub provide exciting new affordances in the knowledge ecosystem.
How to evaluate new scholarship outside of traditionally formatted journals and books? What criteria to use? Are there some genres or platforms that should not be cited in Wikipedia? How to represent bibliographic entities in new formats in Wikidata? How to cite new genres in Wikipedia articles? This panel will discuss quality criteria and signifiers related to nontraditional and emerging scholarship that's citable in Wikipedia.
