英文摘要：
Are there positive or negative externalities in knowledge production? Do current contributions to knowledge production increase or decrease the future growth of knowledge? We use a randomized field experiment, which added relevant content to some pages in Wikipedia while leaving similar pages unchanged. We find that the addition of content has a negligible impact on the subsequent long-run growth of content. Our results have implications for information seeding and incentivizing contributions, implying that additional content does not generate sizable externalities by inspiring nor discouraging future contributions.

中文摘要：
知识生产是否存在正外部性或负外部性？当前对知识生产的贡献是否会增加或减少未来的知识增长？我们使用了一个随机的现场实验，在维基百科的一些页面中添加了相关内容，同时保持类似页面不变。我们发现，内容的添加对随后内容的长期增长影响微乎其微。我们的结果对信息播种和激励贡献有一定的影响，这意味着额外的内容不会通过鼓励或阻止未来的贡献而产生巨大的外部效应。
