'''Research''' on [[en:Wiki|wikis]] can refer to at least three areas: content, sociology, and technology. For [[Wikimedia projects]] for the first two areas, there is a dedicated discussion list, [http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wiki-research-l wiki-research-l]. For the area of technology, there is the general development mailing list, [http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l wikitech-l]. |
|||
The '''[[Wikimedia Research Network]]''' is a voluntary association for coordinating research in all fields. It is made of individual researchers and teams dedicated to various topics: See '''[[Research/Research Projects|Research Projects]]'''. |
|||
Below are lists of researchers and resources. For research on wikis in general (not limited to [[Wikimedia]]), the [[en:Wiki Symposium|Wiki Symposium]] provides a forum. |
