构建共同基础:分析国际辅助语言在维基百科中的质量与使用情况

Constructing a Common Ground: Analyzing the quality and usage of International Auxiliary Languages in Wikipedia

Marta Alet, Diego Saez-Trumper

AI总结:

本研究分析了维基百科上七种国际辅助语言版本的质量与使用情况,发现其表现与社区规模成正比,并提出改进内容数量与质量是促进其增长的关键。

摘要:

国际辅助语言(IALs)是人工构造的语言,旨在促进不同母语使用者之间的交流,同时促进平等、效率和跨文化理解。本研究重点分析维基百科上IALs的版本,包括Simple English、Esperanto、Ido、Interlingua、Volapuk、Interlingue和Novial。我们将它们与三种自然语言:英语、西班牙语和加泰罗尼亚语进行比较。我们的目标是为IALs在维基百科中的使用建立基础,并展示一种对wiki进行分类的新方法。我们发现这些语言共有130万篇文章,每月浏览量达1560万次。尽管这不是一个可以忽略的内容量,但与大型自然语言项目相比,仍有很大的改进空间。我们得出结论,维基百科上的IAL版本与其他项目相似,其行为与其社区规模成正比。因此,它们增长的关键在于增加这些语言所提供内容的数量和质量。为此,我们提供了一组统计数据来理解和改进这些项目,并开发了一个网页来展示我们的发现,以促进知识共享和便利IAL社区的扩展。

英文摘要:

International Auxiliary Languages (IALs) are constructed languages designed to facilitate communication among speakers of different native languages while fostering equality, efficiency, and cross-cultural understanding. This study focuses on analyzing the editions of IALs on Wikipedia, including Simple English, Esperanto, Ido, Interlingua, Volapuk, Interlingue, and Novial. We compare them with three natural languages: English, Spanish, and Catalan. Our aim is to establish a basis for the use of IALs in Wikipedia as well as showcase a new methodology for categorizing wikis. We found in total there are 1.3 million articles written in these languages and they gather 15.6 million monthly views. Although this is not a negligible amount of content, in comparison with large natural language projects there is still a big room for improvement. We concluded that IAL editions on Wikipedia are similar to other projects, behaving proportionally to their communities' size. Therefore, the key to their growth is augmenting the amount and quality of the content offered in these languages. To that end, we offer a set of statistics to understand and improve these projects, and we developed a webpage that displays our findings to foster knowledge sharing and facilitate the expansion of the IAL communities.
