I can't remember if I've seen this one mentioned on this list:
@article{TimClark05012007,
author = {Clark, Tim and Kinoshita, June},
title = {{Alzforum and SWAN: the present and future of scientific web
communities}},
journal = {Brief Bioinform},
volume = {8},
number = {3},
pages = {163-171},
doi = {10.1093/bib/bbm012},
year = {2007},
abstract = {Scientists drove the early development of the World Wide Web,
primarily as a means for rapid communication, document sharing and data access.
They have been far slower to adopt the web as a medium for building
research communities. Yet, web-based communities hold great potential for
accelerating
the pace of scientific research. In this article, we will describe the
10-year experience of the Alzheimer Research Forum ( Alzforum'), a unique
example
of a thriving scientific web community, and explain the features that
contributed to its success. We will then outline the SWAN (Semantic Web
Applications
in Neuromedicine) project, in which Alzforum curators are collaborating
with informatics researchers to develop novel approaches that will enable
communities
to share richly contextualized information about scientific data, claims
and hypotheses.
