The 2020 coronavirus pandemic was a historic social disruption with significant consequences felt around the globe. Wikipedia is a freely-available, peer-produced encyclopedia with a remarkable ability to create and revise content following current events. Using 973,940 revisions from 134,337 editors to 4,238 articles, this study examines the dynamics of the English Wikipedias response to the coronavirus pandemic through the first five months of 2020 as a quantitative portrait describing the emergent collaborative behavior at three levels of analysis: article revision, editor contributions, and network dynamics.
