Wikipedia is 25 years old today! I support them with a monthly contribution, and you should too if you can afford it. Or get some fun anniversary merch

Olivier Simard-Casanova: I am a a French economist. I study how humans influence each other in organizations, especially in the workplace, in scientific communities, and on the Internet. More specifically, I am interested in personnel and organizational economics, in the interaction of monetary and non-monetary incentives in the workplace, in the diffusion of opinion, in network theory, in automated text processing, and in the meta-science of economics. I am also interested in making science more open.
