Assessing Quality Score of Wikipedia Articles Using Mutual Evaluation of Editors and Texts - scientific work about Wikipedia quality published in 2013, written by Yu Suzuki and Masatoshi Yoshikawa.

Overview

In this paper, authors propose a method for assessing quality scores of Wikipedia articles by mutually evaluating editors and texts. Survival ratio based approach is a major approach to assessing article quality. In this approach, when a text survives beyond multiple edits, the text is assessed as good quality, because poor quality texts have a high probability of being deleted by editors. However, many vandals, low quality editors, delete good quality texts frequently, which improperly decreases the survival ratios of good quality texts. As a result, many good quality texts are unfairly assessed as poor quality. In their method, authors consider editor quality score for calculating text quality score, and decrease the impact on text quality by vandals. Using this improvement, the accuracy of the text quality score should be improved. However, an inherent problem with this idea is that the editor quality scores are calculated by the text quality scores. To solve this problem, authors mutually calculate the editor and text quality scores until they converge. In this paper, authors prove that the text quality score converges. Authors did their experimental evaluation, and confirmed that their proposed method could accurately assess the text quality scores.
