Liked the BibTeX idea.

I've got a working paper developed by the RPG mods at bit.ly/RpgSeCaseStudy ... that we're trying to submit to the IJRP. Does it count for this list?

@Brian Ballsun-Stanton, I would say yes. Please add it, and if you publish in IJRP you can update the entry (or add another one).

The following paper arxiv.org/abs/0911.2193 discusses the organization of StackOverflow feeds but not the data. Should one include it?

Student course papers: luisbrandao.info/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/… and courses.cms.caltech.edu/cs145/final2010/socialnets.pdf Include/ignore/special group?

I would stick to peer-reviewed papers for now.

The following document is a PhD thesis (Hybrid Tag Recommendation in Collaborative Tagging Systems) that includes SO in its work about recommender systems: link. Also, there is a book about SO: link.

Another paper; it mentions SO, although it proposes a tool for source-code collaboration: Share.

And more papers: Assessing Technical Candidates on the Social Web, Solving the Search for Suitable Code: An Initial Implementation, Characterizing Social Influence in Google Buzz,

Example Overflow: Using social media for code recommendation, Classifying Language Features and Libraries, Context-based recommendation to support problem solving in software development

My God, it's full of stars!

2014?! OMG he knows the future

@Bogdan Congrats on the ACM and IEEE publications. Just a note for your future papers: It's "Stack Overflow", not "StackOverflow", same for "Stack Exchange", etc.

@slhck In the meantime I learned about the correct spelling, but it was too late to change the papers. I'll keep that in mind from now on. Thanks

@BogdanVasilescu Great idea to compile all of these and congratulations on your paper, it seems fascinating.

@AlexanderSerebrenik Is there a reason you edit in one publication at the time? Can't you make one edit adding everything that needs to get updated?

@rene It is easier for me to keep track of the papers in this way.

@AlexanderSerebrenik, but it bumps the question to the top of the active list every time..

@OGHaza - ok, I think that I've added everything I wanted for now and I'll keep your comment in mind for the next round.

Another paper... Lucas Souza, Eduardo Campos, Marcelo Maia. Ranking Crowd Knowledge to Assist Software Development. In: Proc. of the 22nd International Conference on Program Comprehension - ICPC'2014, 2014, Hyderabad. 2014. Bibtex and PDF

@Andy it sounds like that was Daan's master thesis report. Ale uantwerpen.be/en/staff/alessandro-murgia probably has a copy. His email address is there.

I do not have enough reputation to post an answer. The 2013 papers are missing. Please help to recover. @BogdanVasilescu

The Size Conundrum: Why Online Knowledge Markets Can Fail at Scale

Understanding the factors for fast answers in technical Q&A websites: an empirical study of four stack exchange websites

We need this updated to add papers in 2018 and 2019

@Aadi see below meta.stackexchange.com/a/332679/182512 If I remember correctly we had to split papers across different answers because of an answer length limitation of SO

@BogdanVasilescu, what is the criteria for getting into this list other than using SO dump ?

@MasudRahman none really, just studying the Stack Overflow platform / community (using any research methods).
