Authors investigate the task of finding links from Wikipedia pages to external web pages. Such external links significantly extend the information in Wikipedia with information from the Web at large, while retaining the encyclopedic organization of Wikipedia. Authors use a language modeling approach to create a full-text and anchor text runs, and experiment with different document priors. In addition authors explore whether social bookmarking site Delicious can be exploited to further improve performance. Authors have constructed a test collection of 53 topics, which are Wikipedia pages on different entities. Authors findings are that the anchor text index is a very effective method to retrieve home pages. Url class and anchor text length priors and their combination leads to the best results. Using Delicious on its own does not lead to very good results, but it does contain valuable information. Combining the best anchor text run and the Delicious run leads to further improvements.

Linking Wikipedia to the Web - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2010, written by Rianne Kaptein, Pavel Serdyukov and Jaap Kamps.

Overview

Authors investigate the task of finding links from Wikipedia pages to external web pages. Such external links significantly extend the information in Wikipedia with information from the Web at large, while retaining the encyclopedic organization of Wikipedia. Authors use a language modeling approach to create a full-text and anchor text runs, and experiment with different document priors. In addition authors explore whether social bookmarking site Delicious can be exploited to further improve performance. Authors have constructed a test collection of 53 topics, which are Wikipedia pages on different entities. Authors findings are that the anchor text index is a very effective method to retrieve home pages. Url class and anchor text length priors and their combination leads to the best results. Using Delicious on its own does not lead to very good results, but it does contain valuable information. Combining the best anchor text run and the Delicious run leads to further improvements.
