Design/methodology/approach – Review the history of encyclopedias, their composition, and usage by focusing on select publications covering different subject areas. Findings – Due to their static nature, traditionally published encyclopedias are not always accurate, objective information resources. Intentions of editors and authors also come into question. A researcher may find more value in using encyclopedias as historical documents rather than resources for quick facts.

Malmquist 2013 Reykjavík, Ísland 2013 Útdráttur Markmið þessarar rannsóknar var að bera kennsl á þróun íslensku Wikipediunnar að gerð og umfangi. Notuð var blönduð aðferðafræði. Í megindlega hluta rannsóknarinnar eru dönsku og færeysku Wikipediurnar notaðar sem viðmið fyrir þá íslensku. Til þess að framkvæma rannsóknina var notast við WikiDAT-hugbúnað sem var þróaður gagngert af Dr. Felipe Ortega til þess að framkvæma slíkar greiningar. Gildi rannsóknarinnar felst m.a. í því að slík rannsókn hefur ekki verið gerð áður á þessum Wikipedium. Meðal þess sem athugað var er þróun stærðar Wikipedianna yfir tíma, uppbygging Wikipedianna, dreifing á framlögum notenda og sá tími sem notendur eru virkir á. Einnig voru tekin tölvupóstviðtöl við átta notendur íslensku Wikipediu sem voru eða höfðu verið mjög virkir notendur á tímabili. Spurt var um hvaða augum þeir litu þátttöku sína og hvers vegna þeir tækju þátt. Niðurstaðan er sú að það hægir á vexti íslensku Wikipediu, án þess að orsök þess liggi fyrir og að uppbygging Wikipedianna sé breytileg. Þá er ljóst að fámennur hópur mjög virkra notenda stendur að baki mestri vinnu á íslensku Wikipediu og að flestir nýjir notendur hætti fljótt afskiptum.

  • The Free Encyclopaedia That Anyone Can Edit: the Shifting Values of Wikipedia Editors
    The Free Encyclopaedia that Anyone can Edit: The Shifting Values of Wikipedia Editors By Kim Osman Abstract Wikipedia is often held up as an example of the potential of the internet to foster open, free and non-commercial collaboration. However such discourses often con- flate these values without recognising how they play out in reality in a peer- production community. As Wikipedia is evolving, it is an ideal time to examine these discourses and the tensions that exist between its initial ideals and the reality of commercial activity in the encyclopaedia. Through an analysis of three failed proposals to ban paid advocacy editing in the English language Wikipedia, this paper highlights the shift in values from the early editorial community that forked encyclopaedic content over the threat of commercialisation, to one that today val- ues the freedom that allows anyone to edit the encyclopaedia. Keywords: Wikipedia, encyclopaedias, encyclopaedism, mass collaboration, in- ternet studies, grounded theory, online community. Osman, Kim: “The Free Encyclopaedia that Anyone can Edit” Culture Unbound, Volume 6, 2014: 593–607. Hosted by Linköping University Electronic Press: http://www.cultureunbound.ep.liu.se Introduction Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia in transition. Its core values are being called into question as an increasing number of users are paid to contribute to the encyclo- paedia. How then is the open editorial community of this free encyclopaedia re- sponding to the increasing presence of commercial interests and paid editors? Through an analysis of three failed proposals by the community to impose bans or limits on paid editing, this study reveals how the values of the English language Wikipedia editorial community are in transition and how these shifts reflect wider changes in assumptions about commerciality in digital media.

  • Nonprofit Organizations in the Intellectual Commons Environment
    THE NEGLECTED ROLE OF NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS IN THE INTELLECTUAL-COMMONS ENVIRONMENT A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE STANFORD LAW SCHOOL AND THE COMMITTEE ON GRADUATE STUDIES OF STANFORD UNIVERSITY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF THE SCIENCE OF LAW Jyh-An Lee May 2009 © Copyright by Jyh-An Lee 2009 This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 United States License. ii ABSTRACT Intellectual commons are intellectual resources, which anyone can use either without permission, or with permission granted in advance. Since intellectual commons are crucially important to creativity, innovation, and human development, the shrinkage of the intellectual-commons environment will be a profound loss for our cultural freedom. Therefore, protecting intellectual commons has been one of the most important goals of recent innovation and information policies. Awareness of this importance has grown in large measure because of expanding intellectual property (IP) laws and the growth of digital technology that controls the flow of information. Scholars have urged society to reconstruct the public domain that protects the commons from enclosure, and public-interest advocates have also sought ways to expand access to various online intellectual resources. As a result, significant institutional efforts have emerged to preserve the intellectual-commons environment. Institutions are among the structures through which a society seeks to deal with its various problems; therefore, it is important to understand the effectiveness of alternative forms of institutions, such as the government, for-profit businesses, and nonprofit organizations (NPOs). By the same token, in any discussion of preserving and strengthening the intellectual-commons environment, it is crucial for researchers to understand how different institutions affect this environment.

  • Birds of the Internet: Towards a Field Guide to the Organization and Governance of Participation
    Birds of the Internet: Towards a field guide to the organization and governance of participation Adam Fish1, Christopher Kelty2,3, Luis F.R. Murillo1, Lilly Nguyen3, Aaron Panofsky2,4 1Department of Anthropology, UCLA; 2Center for Society and Genetics, UCLA; 3Department of Information Studies, UCLA; 4Department of Public Policy, UCLA Corresponding Author: Christopher Kelty ([email protected]), Center for Society and Genetics 1323 Rolfe Hall, Box 957221, Los Angeles, CA, 90095. +1 310 880 2433 Abstract: Scholarly attention to new forms of participation on the Internet has proliferated classifications and theories without providing any criteria for distinctions and diversity. Labels such as “peer production,” “prosumption,” “user-led innovation” and “organized networks” are intended to explain new forms of cultural and economic interaction mediated by the Internet, but lack any systematic way of distinguishing different cases. This article provides elements for the composition of a “birder’s handbook” to forms of participation on the Internet that have been observed and analyzed over the last 10 years. It is intended to help scholars across the disciplines distinguish fleeting forms of participation: first, we highlight the fact that participation on the Internet nearly always employs both a “formal social enterprise” and an “organized public” that stand in some structural and temporal relationship to one another; second, we map the different forms of action and exchange that take place amongst these two entities, showing how forms of participation are divided up into tasks and goals, and how they relate to the resource that is created through participation; and third, we describe forms of governance, or variation in how tasks and goals are made available to, and modifiable by, different participants of either a formal enterprise or an organized public.

First and foremost, Diane Davis (DDD) was willing to read countless drafts of these chapters. As DDD will tell you, I work in threes. Three drafts of each chapter, numerous conversations, and various DDD urgings to “slow down” brought you the project that follows. DDD taught me how to read, and I can only hope that this dissertation is a reflection of her ability to perform and teach a gracious and careful mode of scholarship. My entire dissertation committee was immensely helpful throughout the process. This project would never have gotten off the ground without Clay Spinuzzi’s help during the prospectus stages. Feedback at various stages from Kate Hayles, Cynthia Haynes, and Peg Syverson was invaluable. In addition, all of these scholars can find their own stamp on this project at various moments. Their theories and wisdom are the stuff out of which my writing has emerged.

ASAY GALLEYSPROOFS3 1/18/2017 3:15 PM SOFTWARE’S COPYRIGHT ANTICOMMONS Clark D. Asay* Scholars have long assessed “anticommons” problems in creative and innovative environments. An anticommons develops when an asset has numerous rights holders, each of which has a right to prevent use of the asset, but none of which has a right to use the asset without authorization from the other rights holders. Hence, when any one of those rights holders uses its rights in ways that inhibit use of the common asset, an anticommons may result. In the software world, scholars have long argued that anticommons problems arise, if at all, because of patent rights. Copyright, on the other hand, has not been viewed as a significant source of anticommons problems. But this Article argues that copyright is an increasingly significant cause of anticommons concerns in the software context for at least two related reasons. First, the increasingly collaborative nature of much modern software innovation means that any given software resource is subject to dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of distinct copyright interests, each of which can ultimately hamper use of the software resource.
