Credibility Assessment Using Wikipedia for Messages on Social Network Services - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2011, written by Yu Suzuki and Akiyo Nadamoto.

Overview

Authors propose methods for calculating credibility values of messages in Social Network Services (SNSs), such as Linked In and Face book. Many users post messages on SNSs, however, not all of these messages are credible. Authors method is based on two assumptions: an SNS message is credible (1) if the SNS message is similar to information from other resources and (2) if the information is confirmed as credible. For assumption (1), authors developed a method to retrieve similar descriptions from Wikipedia articles. For assumption (2), authors developed a method for assessing Wikipedia articles using the edit history. Using these two methods, authors can calculate accurate credibility values for SNS messages. In an experiment, authors confirmed that method can calculate appropriate credibility values for SNS messages if Wikipedia has credible articles related to the SNS messages.
