Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description

Let an agent explain collaboration as a process, relay research on teamwork, tools and open collaboration from academic and community sources with attribution, describe examples such as WikiProjects, and distinguish collaboration from cooperation, coordination and the misfiled garment alias.

The process of two or more people or organisations working together to achieve a shared goal, studied in management, education and science and embodied in open projects such as WikiProjects on Wikipedia and Wikidata, their task forces and photo drives such as Wiki Takes; the registry aliases also list Isiagu attire, a Nigerian ceremonial garment, which appears misfiled.

What it is for: Achieving shared goals together.

It can be explain the concept; relay research and tools; describe examples; distinguish related concepts.

Physical character

WikiProjects on English Wikipedia: about 2000 count

collaboration software market: tens of billions of USD note - estimates

How it is recognised

Working together toward a shared goal

WikiProjects, task forces, Wiki Takes photo drives

Cooperation may lack a shared product; coordination aligns separate work; Isiagu is a garment
