In #SRBR2024 #Wikithon, we'll be looking at editing chronobiology pages. In this paper, @rona_av @omerbenj examine edits to "Circadian clock" and "Circadian rhythm" and reveal how arguments and paradigm shifts are encoded in the pages' metadata:

“Imagine we could see a scientist’s revisions on their papers. That would be the equivalent of what we’re doing... it's like an MRI of the scientific consensus” - @PolaLem @timeshighered on our Wikipedia & CRISPR study - now out on @PLOSONE

Our latest study is out! We propose using #Wikipedia as a historiographical source for contemporary science, using #CRISPR as our test case.
Out now on

What did you last learn on #Wikipedia?
For us, it was we can use the open encyclopaedia as a tool to research the history of science
How? See our new preprint, using the #CRISPR field as case-study
