Revision and Co-Revision in Wikipedia ? Detecting Clusters of Interest - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2007, written by Ulrik Brandes and Jürgen Lerner.

Overview

The online encyclopedia Wikipedia gives rise to a multitude of network structures such as the citation network of its pages or the co- authorship network of users. In this paper authors analyze another network that arises from the fact that Wikipedia articles undergo perpetual edit- ing. It can be observed that the edit volume of Wikipedia pages varies strongly over time, often triggered by news events related to their con- tent. Furthermore, some pages show remarkably parallel behavior in their edit variance in which case authors add a co-revision link connecting them. The goal of this paper is to assess the meaningfulness of the co-revision network. Specific tasks are to understand the influence of normalization (e.g., correlation vs. covariance) and to determine dierences between the co-revision network and other relations on Wikipedia pages, such as similarity by author-overlap.
