Link to Google Slides (updated 10-7-24): Prof Gray on Wikipedia disputes and dispute resolution
This submission has been accepted for WikiConference North America 2024.
Title:
- Turning points in Wikipedia disputes: Research and discussion of resolution efforts
Type of session:
- Lecture (15-30 min)
Session theme(s):
- Community Health, Research
Abstract:
What have scholars learned about editing disputes on Wikipedia and how do they understand these disputes? What kinds of dispute resolution efforts are effective?
Updated slides (Oct.7th): Link to Google Slides (draft) for @ProfGray's talk on Wikipedia disputes and dispute resolution
The presentation will:
- briefly review WP dispute resolution efforts;
- summarize recent academic research on WP disputes;
- mention cases from academic studies and from the presenter’s take on edit disputes over Israel-Palestine topics.
- reflect on next steps for WP resolution efforts, both for individual editors and organized groups.
The talk will include a quick tour of tidbits from research about "crossroads" or turning points within WP dispute resolution efforts, along with research on edit warring and contentious topics.
Note: Most of the covered research will center on English Wikipedia, with some non-English cases. The lessons may apply broadly to other Wikimedia projects.
To view and improve the list of academic studies to be summarized, see: New article in en-Wikipedia: Disputes on Wikipedia
