reader
The Centre for Internet and Society (Bangalore, India) and the Institute of Network Cultures (Amsterdam, Netherlands) will work together to produce a reader of critical Wikipedia research, as part of the effort to build a Wikipedia Research Network. The two CPOV events, that bring together different perspectives, approaches, experiences and stories that critically explore different questions and concerns around Wikipedia, will result in a reader that consolidates critical points of view on Wikipedia.
