Wikipedia community
The Wikipedia community is the community of contributors to the online encyclopedia Wikipedia. Individual contributors are known as "Wikipedians". The ''Oxford English Dictionary'' added the word "Wikipedian" in August 2012. Almost all Wikipedians are volunteers. With the increased maturity and visibility of Wikipedia other categories of Wikipedians emerged, such as Wikipedian in residence and students with assignments related to editing Wikipedia. == Size ==
Studies of the size of the community of Wikipedia showed an exponential growth in the number of Wikipedia contributors during the early years. In April 2008, writer and lecturer Clay Shirky and computer scientist Martin Wattenberg estimated the total time spent creating Wikipedia at roughly 100 million hours. In November 2011, there were approximately 31.7 million registered user accounts across all language editions, of which around 270,000 were "active" (made at least one edit every month).〔(List of Wikipedias ). Wikimedia Meta-Wiki. Retrieved 2011-11-18.〕 As of today, the English Wikipedia contains articles - the cumulative product of registered editors, and an unknown number of anonymous contributors. There are active editors on the English project. Wikipedia editors continue to increase the number and length of the articles. About half of the active editors spend at least one hour a day editing, and a fifth spend more than three hours a day.
