没有截止日期-维基百科讨论的时间演变
There is No Deadline - Time Evolution of Wikipedia Discussions
摘要:
维基百科的条目从定义上来说永远不会结束:它们的内容随时都可以被编辑,或者在相关的讨论页中进行讨论。在这项研究中,我们分析了这些讨论的演变,揭示了沿时间维度的集体参与模式,并阐明了不同主题的内容创作过程。在微观尺度上,我们研究了讨论活动中的峰值,并观察到与编辑活动的非平凡关系。在更大的范围内,我们引入了一个衡量讨论复杂性增长速度的指标,我们发现不同文章的速度跨越了三个数量级。我们的分析应该有助于社区的任务,如早期发现的争议和评估的讨论成熟度。
英文摘要:
Wikipedia articles are by definition never finished: at any moment their content can be edited, or discussed in the associated talk pages. In this study we analyse the evolution of these discussions to unveil patterns of collective participation along the temporal dimension, and to shed light on the process of content creation on different topics. At a micro-scale, we investigate peaks in the discussion activity and we observe a non-trivial relationship with edit activity. At a larger scale, we introduce a measure to account for how fast discussions grow in complexity, and we find speeds that span three orders of magnitude for different articles. Our analysis should help the community in tasks such as early detection of controversies and assessment of discussion maturity.
