vgl \cite{GeiHal2017}
iterative mixed method
combination of:
* quantitative methods: mining big data sets/computational social science
"begin with one or
more large (but often thin) datasets generated by a software platform, which has recorded digital
traces that users leave in interacting on that platform. Such researchers then seek to mine as much
signal and significance from these found datasets as they can at scale in order to answer a research
question"
* more traditional social science/qualitative methods, e.g. interviews, observations, experiments
\cite{Geiger2014}
"the idea that Wikipedia only takes place on wiki-
pedia.org – or even entirely on the Internet – is a huge misunderstanding (Konieczny, 2009;
Reagle, 2010). Wikipedia is not a virtual world, especially one located entirely on the wiki."
e.g. in order to get hold of abuse_filter_history I had to engage with
- wikipedia.org
- mediawiki.org
- irc channels
- phabricator
- gerrit
- toolserver/cloudservices
----
other spaces Wikipedia takes place
- mailinglists
- WomenEdit/offenes Editieren @Wikimedia
- Wikimania
- Wikimedia's office and daily work
