About you
[edit]Computer science Graduate student in University of Minnesota, Twin cities. During my course, I have read about a dozen research papers on wikipedia, published in CHI, WWW, CSCW and the wikipedia research in my university is a big motivation factor. I have three years industry experience including 2.4 years in IBM.
I have also researched on social networking inside wikipedia for my semester project [1], where I studied the implementation, effect and feasibility of social networking in wikipedia.
