Trust, but Verify: Predicting Contribution Quality for Knowledge Base Construction and Curation - scientific work about Wikipedia quality published in 2014, written by Chunhow Tan, Eugene Agichtein, Panos G. Ipeirotis and Evgeniy Gabrilovich.

Overview

The largest publicly available knowledge repositories, such as Wikipedia and Freebase, owe their existence and growth to volunteer contributors around the globe. While the majority of contributions are correct, errors can still creep in, due to editors' carelessness, misunderstanding of the schema, malice, or even lack of accepted ground truth. If left undetected, inaccuracies often degrade the experience of users and the performance of applications that rely on these knowledge repositories. Authors present a new method, CQUAL, for automatically predicting the quality of contributions submitted to a knowledge base. Significantly expanding upon previous work, their method holistically exploits a variety of signals, including the user's domains of expertise as reflected in her prior contribution history, and the historical accuracy rates of different types of facts. In a large-scale human evaluation, their method exhibits precision of 91% at 80% recall. Their model verifies whether a contribution is correct immediately after it is submitted, significantly alleviating the need for post-submission human reviewing.
