href="/wiki/User-generated_content" title="User-generated content">user-generated content</a> websites in that it allows contributions – even changes to widely read existing content – without creating an account, in exchange to contributors agreeing to have their IP address published alongside their edit. This has been a core feature since the project's beginnings, but has come to be questioned from several angles in recent years. In "The Hidden Costs of Requiring Accounts: Quasi-Experimental Evidence From Peer Production"<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>, well-known Wikipedia researchers <a href="/wiki/Benjamin_Mako_Hill" title="Benjamin Mako Hill">Benjamin Mako Hill</a> and Aaron Shaw provide some insights on what might happen if IP editing were to be disabled on Wikimedia wikis. As they summarize in the abstract: </p> <blockquote style="padding-left:1.0em; padding-right:1.0em; background-color:#eaf8f4;"> <p>"We conduct an empirical test using longitudinal data from 136 natural experiments where would-be contributors to wikis were suddenly required to log in to contribute. Requiring accounts leads to a small increase in account creation, but reduces both high- and low-quality contributions from registered and unregistered participants. Although the change deters a large portion of low-quality participation, the vast majority of deterred contributions are of higher quality." </p> </blockquote> <p>These 136 wikis are drawn from a larger dataset from <a href="/wiki/Wikia" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikia">Wikia</a> (today known as Fandom, a commercial wiki hoster co-founded by Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales), consisting of wikis where local administrators had requested for IP editing to be disabled. </p><p>According to the paper's literature review (of general research on peer production), </p> <blockquote style="padding-left:1.0em; padding-right:1.0em; background-color:#eaf8f4;"> <p>"One body of prior studies argue that stable identifiers work as catalysts of cooperation by facilitating accountability, group identification, boundaries, and commitment that lead to higher quality participation. Others contend that requiring accounts imposes costly obstacles that deter participation. A related set of studies suggests that unregistered contributions may introduce diverse perspectives and stimulate activity among experienced community members ..." </p> </blockquote> <p>Based on this, the authors come up with four hypotheses for the effects of requiring account registration: </p> <ul><li>"an increase in the number of newly registered accounts (H1)"</li> <li>"a reduction in the number of subsequently removed contributions (H2)" (operationalized as <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Revert" class="extiw" title="m:Research:Revert">reverted edits</a>)</li> <li>"a reduction in high quality contributions (H3)" (operationalized via non-reverted edits and via <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Content_persistence" class="extiw" title="m:Research:Content persistence">content persistence</a>)</li> <li>"a reduction in contributions from participants who contributed with accounts prior to the requirement (H4)"</li></ul> <p>In their analysis, the authors find "substantial discontinuous shifts in each of our dependent variables when wikis began requiring accounts", supporting all four hypotheses. </p><p>The authors first presented such results <a href="https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/The_Effect_of_Blocking_IP_Editing:_Evidence_from_Wikia" class="extiw" title="wm2015:Submissions/The Effect of Blocking IP Editing: Evidence from Wikia">at Wikimania 2015</a> and published them in peer-reviewed form last year. Just a few months afterwards, a large Wikimedia wiki enacted such a change for the first time (see e.g. the Signpost's coverage: <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2020-11-01/News_and_notes#Portuguese_Wikipedia_bans_IP_editing" title="Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2020-11-01/News and notes">Portuguese Wikipedia bans IP editing</a>). A <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IP_Editing:_Privacy_Enhancement_and_Abuse_Mitigation/IP_Editing_Restriction_Study/Portuguese_Wikipedia" class="extiw" title="m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation/IP Editing Restriction Study/Portuguese Wikipedia">recent evaluation of its impact</a> by the Wikimedia Foundation does not quite match the results from the Wikia wikis, finding "no significant negative impact in the analysis conducted thus far" (see also the more detailed summary in this issue's "News and notes" section: "<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2021-08-29/News_and_notes#Portuguese_IP_ban_on_track" title="Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2021-08-29/News and notes">Portuguese IP ban on track</a>"). The statistical techniques used in that analysis appear to be somewhat simpler (e.g. only considering year-over-year changes in monthly counts of active editors, in contrast to Hill's and Shaw's analysis of weekly data using a <a href="/wiki/Regression_discontinuity_design" title="Regression discontinuity design">regression discontinuity design</a> in the paper). On the other hand, the WMF analysis also considered additional metrics designed to measure "Impacts on administration", namely the number of user blocks, page protections, and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Checkuser" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Checkuser">Checkuser checks</a>, finding (somewhat unsurprisingly) "a significant reduction in administration actions". </p><p>There are other reasons to question how much the Wikia results would generalize to Wikipedias or other Wikimedia wikis. For example, in recent years the Wikimedia Foundation has <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Growth" class="extiw" title="mw:Growth">invested significantly in technical measures</a> to improve the experience of newcomers. But IP editors do not benefit from such improvements ("newcomers" meaning newly created accounts), so requiring them to register might have the added benefit that every contributor to a wiki will have been reached by such newbie-supporting measures as they start to edit. </p><p><br/> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Other_recent_publications" data-mw-thread-id="h-Other_recent_publications-signpost-article-title"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Other_recent_publications-signpost-article-title"></span>Other recent publications<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Other_recent_publications-signpost-article-title"></span></h3></div> <p><i>Other recent publications that could not be covered in time for this issue include the items listed below.

[...] However, many Wikipedia editors and observers have argued that the systemic biases of Wikipedia are inherent to current global distribution of knowledge production, and can only be overcome by changing the encyclopedia’s standards of inclusion. This article reframes this debate by comparing the project of “countering systemic bias” on Wikipedia with the effort within Western/Northern academia to decolonize and diversify scholarship. Since this project began at least fifty years ago, it has led to abundant peer-reviewed scholarship, all of which qualifies as “reliable sources” for Wikipedia articles. [...] The article proposes that critical scholarship, historical maps, and maps in contemporary scholarship can all contribute to addressing Wikipedia’s systemic biases." </p> </blockquote> <p><br/> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id=""Empathy_plasticity:_Decolonizing_and_reorganizing_Wikipedia_and_other_online_spaces_to_address_racial_equity"" data-mw-thread-id="h-"Empathy_plasticity:_Decolonizing_and_reorganizing_Wikipedia_and_other_online_sp-Other_recent_publications"><span id=".22Empathy_plasticity:_Decolonizing_and_reorganizing_Wikipedia_and_other_online_spaces_to_address_racial_equity.22"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-"Empathy_plasticity:_Decolonizing_and_reorganizing_Wikipedia_and_other_online_sp-Other_recent_publications"></span>"Empathy plasticity: Decolonizing and reorganizing Wikipedia and other online spaces to address racial equity"<span data-mw-comment-end="h-"Empathy_plasticity:_Decolonizing_and_reorganizing_Wikipedia_and_other_online_sp-Other_recent_publications"></span></h4></div> <p>From the abstract:<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <blockquote style="padding-left:1.0em; padding-right:1.0em; background-color:#eaf8f4;"> <p>"...

A quick check shows MILHIST has 1,334 FAs out of 200,359 articles total. Tropical cyclones has 165 FAs but out of mere ~3200 articles. That seems like it should still favor MILHIST, but I guess Tropical Cyclones huge number of GAs helped it win out - which seems a bit off to me, I'm curious if the writers included A-class MILHIST articles that were also GAs, and also, there's only so many GANs that can really be processed, so that would hit larger projects more than smaller projects. (Regardless, both of those projects are doing good work.) <a href="/wiki/User:SnowFire" title="User:SnowFire">SnowFire</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:SnowFire" title="User talk:SnowFire">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2021-08-29/Recent_research#c-SnowFire-2021-08-30T23:30:00.000Z-Rotideypoc41352-2021-08-30T18:26:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">23:30, 30 August 2021 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-SnowFire-2021-08-30T23:30:00.000Z-Rotideypoc41352-2021-08-30T18:26:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-SnowFire-2021-08-30T23:30:00.000Z-Rotideypoc41352-2021-08-30T18:26:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Nettrom-2021-09-01T08:01:00.000Z-SnowFire-2021-08-30T23:30:00.000Z"></span>We ran into a similar problem in our 2015 paper about the misalignment between quality and viewership of articles (covered in the April 29, 2015 Signpost's research section: <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2015-04-29/Recent_research#Popularity_does_not_breed_quality_(and_vice_versa)" title="Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2015-04-29/Recent research">Popularity does not breed quality (and <i>vice versa</i>)</a>). In that case, we were trying to understand topics of FAs with relatively low viewership, and used <a href="/wiki/Relative_risk" title="Relative risk">relative risk</a> to measure it. The approach has a couple of parameters that can be tuned: the minimum number of articles in a project, which removes small projects that often focus on a very specific topic; and the minimum number of articles in the dataset, which controls how general the listed topics are (smaller values lead to more specific topics, IIRC).</dd> <dd>Both MILHIST and Tropical Cyclones were in <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://ojs.aaai.org/index.php/ICWSM/article/download/14631/14480">our paper</a> (Table 9, page 7). The difference in relative risk was large: MILHIST ranked #7 with an RR of 5.3, whereas Tropical Cyclones ranked #2 with an RR of 99.3. I'm unsure what the number of articles in the projects were at that point in time, we don't mention it and instead focus on how MILHIST also has some articles with high viewership but relatively low quality.

It works more by checklist, and the article is judged by how well it meets each of the requirements. So, some subjects like warships and hurricanes are born a dozen or three per year. They have very precise notability requirements and usually very precise official sources, and well-established traditions of article structure and checklists of what goes in the article and what does not. Checking off the boxes for the checklists of GAFA is easier for those whose own checklists are clear, than for articles about a war or a musical genre or a technical development, where the boundaries and criteria for aspects to be included are seldom so clear. This of course does not make GAFA unimportant, but like any tool its powers and limitations have to be understood.<a href="/wiki/User:Jim.henderson" title="User:Jim.henderson">Jim.henderson</a> (<a
