Summary

Description
English: "Figure 1.   Edit volume in the English Wikipedia increased during COVID-19 mobility restrictions. We visualize the rolling 7-day average edit volume in the English Wikipedia from January to October 2020 alongside the daily mean of 2019 and 2018, only considering non-bot edits to Wikipedia articles. Vertical lines mark major developments during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 (Via https://wikimediafoundation.org/​covid​19/​data). After the first Western countries (e.g., Italy) enforced mobility restrictions in early March, edit volume stagnated briefly before rising sharply—a trend that prevailed until late May, where the maximum difference in rolling 7-day average edit volume reached 20,970. Although this initial sharp increase in edits later declined, a surplus persisted until October. Until September 31st, editors produced 8.4% ( 7.3% ) more edits in 2020 than in 2019 (2018), an increase of 2.2 million (2 million) edits (Supplementary Table 2). Much of this edit surplus appears to stem from periods of mobility restrictions in the spring of 2020."
