Dan Cosley et al., How Oversight Improves Member-Maintained Communities, CHI 2005

Research Question: how can we design mechanisms — interfaces, algorithms, economies, and social structures –  that allow communities to maintain themselves and and encourage members to provide valuable contributions?

Theory of why do people contribute: Karau and Williams' collective effort model.

Two ways of oversight: discouraging low value contributions and motivating valuable contributors.

Hypothesis: oversight -> less antisocial behavior, better final quality, some support of more contribution and no support for better initial contribution,finally, knowledge is power. Knowing about oversight affected both quantity and data base quality.
