The third edition of the Wikipedia project of the institute of zoology of the University of Innsbruck is about to begin. After 2010 and 2011, biology students in Innsbruck will once again have the opportunity to edit Wikipedia articles as part of the coursework. A project page has been added this year to serve as a gathering and informaiton point for students, wikipedians and project coordinators. This portal page enables participants to keep an overview of the project.

Thorsten Schwerte, assistant professor at the University of Innsbruck and responsible for introduction to scientific working had the idea to communicate scientific standards to his students by working on Wikipedia articles. The articles created as part of the university course ended up on Wikipedia the following spring, seriously baffling [[:de:RBIO|biology project]] members, who in turn immediately started wikifying and cirtically analysing the articles. Who wrote the articles? Were they being maintained or simply "uploaded"? Did the students have the necessary tools and motivation to edit an encyclopedia? Who is responsible for all of this? And above all: Can this proejct have a happy ending? | ||

After an intensive discussion with Thorsten Schwerte and his coworkers Stefan Stolz and Elisabeth Kugler and a real-life meeting at the WikiCon 2012 in Dornbirn the conclusion was that a there could be a happy ending! During the talks between wikipedians and the UIBK-Bio team common interests were defined and goals set: Wikipedia and the students were to profit equally from the project. Besided following up on maintenance work it was agreed that the communications between the biology portal project and the university and its students was to be improved. It was also thematised where to best invest resources - in know-how in reworking literature or in tutorials for Wikipedia newbies. | |||
