interesting quote...

"the IT industry has inconsistently used and abused so many collaboration-related words and phrases that it’s important to revisit the basics to ensure we’re working with a shared context"--Ray Ozzie (2003)

References

It seems odd to me that there are 47 references on this article, but only 1 fully written paragraph, and a outline of another. Would a start be to eliminate all of the references that are not acually referenced in the article?, and perhaps use the others as source material?Cander0000 17:34, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

New internal links and citations added to the article. This will hopefully make more detailed information on these topics easily accessible by linking directly to their respective articles on Wikipedia or external sources.

• "Applications to Ubiquitous Computing" section is now linked to Wikipedia's main Ubiquitous Computing article.
• "Lead" section now contains a link to Wikipedia's Design Patterns article.
• Newly created "Boundary Object" section includes new references as well as a link to Wikipedia's main Boundary Object article.
• A citation was added to the CSCW Matrix image in the "Matrix" section. Sunday179 (talk) 00:28, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

references explanations...

These 47 seven papers are the result of a study published in the last CSCW conference in Banff in 2006 (this paper is cited in the article: "the chasm of CSCW")

There are the most cited papers and are in some sense the heart of CSCW. This paper list can be very usefull for a person that want to explore 20 years of CSCW...

Maybe, this has to be explained in the page ?

So i think that the banner "indiscriminately sources" is not justified at all. These 47 papers list have been already accepted by the CSCW community...

Rewrite of section

I rewrote the major section to this article, as the text seemed to make some erroneous claims, as well as being a bit tangential to explaining the CSCW field. I did try to incorporate the major concerns that were expressed in the text that I replaced. Drop me a line if there are concerns with the changes. It can definitely be elaborated upon a great deal.

Redirect problem

Computer-supported cooperative work points to computer-supported collaboration, not this article. MaxVeers (talk) 23:45, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

• Thanks, I updated the redirect - Leafman (talk) 18:12, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

A confusing array of buzzword articles needs structure

I'm seeing a lot of "collaboration" and "cooperation" buzzwords appearing as articles. Those articles often refer to each other, and need some organization. (And I see from the first section above that this has been a problem for the last 6 years.)

See my list of examples at Talk:Collaborative working environment.

This article is patchy and not representative of the field

The article comes across as an arbitrary collection of terms and references. It needs editing by somebody who has an overview of this (vast) field. For instance, the key role of ethnographic studies of cooperative work practices in natural settings is not represented. In its current form, it would be more appropriate if the title was changed to “Computer-Mediated Communications” or “Groupware”.

The list of 47 “most cited papers” is misleading. The study from which it has been lifted is based on a bibliometric analysis of the ACM Digital Library only -- and does not take into account works published at ECSCW (since 1989), the CSCW Journal (since 1992), the COOP conferences series, the Springer CSCW book series, and so on.

Computer supported cooperative work → Computer-supported cooperative work –

That's how it is in the article text, which is consistent with WP's house style (WP:HYPHEN) and sibling titles (WP:TITLE). Tony (talk) 11:04, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

Need a section (or page) like: "list of CSCW software"

Computers are central to the page subject, and computers need software, so IMO... we need a section for "list of CSCW software"... even if it is ancient, proprietary, locked up in research papers, etc. --Osndok (talk) 19:16, 18 April 2018 (UTC)

I think this is interesting but very well could be an article of its own as there is an enormous amount of CSCW software that is out there. RatFuryJunior (talk) 03:36, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

History section created

Much of the information pertaining to the history of CSCW cluttered the lead. It has been relocated and edited in it's own section dedicated specifically to the history of the field. This allows both for a more streamlined lead section as well as giving the history section a dedicated space to be expanded upon. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheDrummer2021 (talk • contribs) 23:09, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

Deletion of Sections

My edits on this page have mostly been that of organization, helping to reframe and direct the very branch-based article that it started as.

Furthering my goal, I believe that the sections of Conferences, as well as the ubiquitous computing sections, are not warranted in this lengthy article.

While ubiquitous computing is an important field, its less so related to CSCW and fits more under the subsequent article Ubiquitous computing instead. I feel that information from this article re: ubicomp should be relocated into that article. As for the Conferences, while this information is relevant I am not 100% sure what it contributes to the article as a whole

thank you for humoring me RatFuryJunior (talk) 03:34, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

Diversity Equity and Inclusion in CSCW

Previously Gender and CSCW was its own topic. Now Gender and CSCW falls under the main category Diversity Equity and Inclusion in CSCW. With this the section Increasing female participation was also added in to the main section.

Topic only cites 4 sources, perhaps more sources and more content can be added to the page. Two out of the four sources were from the year 2000 and 2007.

These could be newer especially with a topic as ever changing as inclusion in CSCW. Paspro22 (talk) 07:33, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

Fixing the lead

The lead improved by adding a definition of CSCW. The lead was shorten for a more concise explanation, removed irrelevant sentences, and grammar was fixed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lazyrabbit07 (talk • contribs) 14:11, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

I removed the "lead too long" template, because the lead seems fine to me now. - Katoss (talk) 11:30, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
