Wikipedia and its sister projects - particularly Wikimedia Commons - are one of the most popular sources of information, including on topics related to scholarly research. It is thus in the interest of researchers to familiarize themselves with the inner workings of these platforms, as well as with the broader culture of openness that they are embedded in and that has started to spread into academia. This talk shall provide a general introduction to Wikipedia and its sister projects, focusing on the role they play in engaging the public with research in the fields relevant to the Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW).

In the spirit of openness, the talk is editable and being developed in public at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Daniel_Mietchen/Talks/Zentrum_für_Europäische_Wirtschaftsforschung_2013 , from where it will also be held. Feedback of any kind - e.g. suggestions, questions, or reports of past interactions with Wikimedia - is most welcome. A video recording of a similar talk given at CERN some months earlier is available via http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Daniel_Mietchen/Talks/CERN_2012 .
