User:Staeiou/Protocol

I am a researcher at UC-Berkeley in the School of Information, and am studying Wikipedia - along with other distributed networks of knowledge production in science. You can see more about me at User:Staeiou. Because I am an ethnographer and gathering data by participating in the community, various laws require me to take certain precautions to ensure that my research is ethical - you can read a formal declaration of my pledge to the Wikimedia community at User:Staeiou/Research Protocol. Basically, I'll keep your privacy if you say anything to me in confidence, but remember that everything you post or edit on Wikipedia can be seen by anyone.

My research

I do a lot of work on bots and assisted editing tools, from both a quantitative and qualitative perspective. I have one poster I presented at Wikisym on "The Social Roles of Bots and Assisted Editing Tools" and one paper that I will be presenting at Computer Supported Cooperative Work on "The Work of Sustaining Order in Wikipedia: The Banning of a Vandal." Abstracts and full papers are also up on my website, stuartgeiger.com
