Abstract

Wikipedia is unique among reference works both in its scale and in the openness of its editing interface. The question of how it can achieve and maintain high-quality encyclopedic articles is an area of active research. In order to address this question, researchers need to build consensus around a sensible metric to assess the quality of contributions to articles. This measure must not only reflect an intuitive concept of "quality," but must also be scalable and run efficiently. Building on prior work in this area, this paper uses human raters through Amazon Mechanical Turk to validate an efficient, automated quality metric.

衡量维基百科编辑的质量
维基百科在其规模和编辑界面的开放性方面在参考书中都是独一无二的。如何实现和保持高质量的百科全书文章的问题是一个活跃的研究领域。为了解决这个问题,研究人员需要围绕一个合理的指标建立共识,以评估文章的贡献质量。这个度量不仅必须反映“质量”的直观概念,而且还必须是可伸缩的和有效运行的。基于该领域的先前工作,本文通过Amazon Mechanical Turk使用人类评分员来验证有效的自动化质量度量。
