Investigations into Trust for Collaborative Information Repositories: a Wikipedia Case Study - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2006, written by Deborah L. McGuinness, Honglei Zeng, Paulo Pinheiro da Silva, Li Ding, Dhyanesh Narayanan and Mayukh Bhaowal.

Overview

As collaborative repositories grow in popularity and use, issues concerning the quality and trustworthiness of information grow. Some current popular repositories contain contributions from a wide variety of users, many of which will be unknown to a potential end user. Additionally the content may change rapidly and information that was previously contributed by a known user may be updated by an unknown user. End users are now faced with more challenges as they evaluate how much they may want to rely on information that was generated and updated in this manner. A trust management layer has become an important requirement for the continued growth and acceptance of collaboratively developed and maintained information resources. In this paper, authors will describe initial investigations into designing and implementing an extensible trust management layer for collaborative and/or aggregated repositories of information. Authors leverage work on the Inference Web explanation infrastructure and exploit and expand the Proof Markup Language to handle a simple notion of trust. Authors work is designed to support representation, computation, and visualization of trust information. Authors have grounded work in the setting of Wikipedia. In this paper, authors present vision, expose motivations, relate work to date on trust representation, and present a trust computation algorithm with experimental results. Authors also discuss some issues encountered in work that authors found interesting.
