== Overview ==
Wikis are collaborative systems in which virtually anyone can edit anything. Although wikis have become highly popular in many domains, their mutable nature often leads them to be distrusted as a reliable source of information. Here authors describe a social dynamic analysis tool called WikiDashboard which aims to improve social transparency and accountability on [[Wikipedia]] articles. Early reactions from users suggest that the increased transparency afforded by the tool can improve the interpretation, communication, and trustworthiness of Wikipedia articles.
