This comprehensive guide to Wikipedia is a valuable resource for researchers and students in linguistics, discourse and communication studies, addressing the lack of research on Wikipedia in these fields. By drawing on Herring's situational and medium factors, as well as related developments in (critical) discourse studies, the author conducts a theoretical and empirical study of the online encyclopedia, examining its origins, production, and consumption. The book then delves into its societal significance and functions, making it an essential read for Wikipedia scholars from various disciplines, as well as those with a broader interest in linguistics, discourse studies, and the digital humanities.
