    articles in Wikipedia published in the last year.

    Then, about two weeks before Wikimania, I did the scholar search

  \note<2->{I tried to import the whole list into Zotero and managed
    to get banned for abusing the Google Scholar because they thought
    that no human being could realistically consume the amount of
    material published on Wikipedia that year.

    So anyway, I had a 45 minute talk so it worked out to 3.45 seconds
    to per paper...

    And believe it or not, this year is even bigger.
 
    And my talk is even shorter.}

  \note{Those are my six exemplary studies from the past year. 

    There has been just tons and tons of work in this area. Trying to
    talk about this in 20 minutes strikes me as increasingly crazy
    every year I try to do it.

    The most important source, now going for a couple years, is the
    Wikimedia Research Newsletter which is published monthly in the (English)
    Signpost and syndicated on the Wikimedia Research.
