摘要:

像维基百科这样的协作是现代互联网价值的关键部分。与此同时,人们担心,这些合作受到成员流动率高的威胁。在本文中,我们借用主题分析的想法,随着时间的推移,在维基百科上的编辑活动到一个潜在的空间,提供了一个深入了解编辑行为的演变模式。这种潜在的空间表示揭示了一些不同类别的编辑器(如内容专家,社交网络),我们表明,它确实提供了一个信号,预测编辑器的离开社区。我们还表明,长期的编辑逐渐多样化的参与,通过将编辑偏好从一个或两个命名空间到多个命名空间,并在他们的编辑配置文件中经历相对较软的演变,而短期的编辑一般随机分配他们的贡献之间的命名空间,并在他们的编辑配置文件中经历相当大的波动演变。

英文摘要:

Collaborations such as Wikipedia are a key part of the value of the modern Internet. At the same time there is concern that these collaborations are threatened by high levels of member turnover. In this paper we borrow ideas from topic analysis to editor activity on Wikipedia over time into a latent space that offers an insight into the evolving patterns of editor behavior. This latent space representation reveals a number of different categories of editor (e.g. content experts, social networkers) and we show that it does provide a signal that predicts an editor's departure from the community. We also show that long term editors gradually diversify their participation by shifting edit preference from one or two namespaces to multiple namespaces and experience relatively soft evolution in their editor profiles, while short term editors generally distribute their contribution randomly among the namespaces and experience considerably fluctuated evolution in their editor profiles.
