! Social dynamics of cross lingual collaboration Notes of card storming meeting for "Social dynamics of cross lingual collaboration" in ((BabelWiki08)) Workshop. The three card on this cluster were: # Economics of Wiki translation # Social Engineering. How to encourage (& guide) volunteers # How to get students to collaborate in Wiki creation & and move them from inaction We started with the question about what are the main factors that motivate people to translate content. Some ideas came into the discussion: * We have the sensation that 2% of users in Wikipedia, as a reference, do create content, and 98% of the users just read that content. What could we do to motivate another 2% of users to participate in translating current content? * In some educational scenarios (mainly university degrees related to translation) many students have fun translating content. * Some times we have the sensation that we created a solution which is looking for a problem to be solved, even if sometimes, we agree that the problem existed but it was not explicitly formulated. * In some cases, unique page names using the UTF-8 character set are desired and pursued, but issues are still present with some browser not supporting them (or not by default and users don't know how to set that browser )
