title="Institute for Strategic Dialogue">Institute for Strategic Dialogue</a>, a London-based think tank, earlier this month published a report (co-authored with a company called CASM Technology)<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> focusing <a rel="nofollow" class="external text"

of various other concrete cases). </p><p>As summarized in the abstract: </p> <blockquote style="padding-left:1.0em; padding-right:1.0em; background-color:#eaf8f4;"> <p>"The report combines a literature review on publicly available research and information around Wikipedia, expert interviews and a case study.<br/> For the case study, the English-language Wikipedia page for the Russo-Ukrainian war was chosen, where accounts that edited the page and have subsequently been blocked from editing were examined. Their editing behaviour on other Wikipedia pages was mapped to understand the scale and overlap of contributions. This network mapping has seemed to identify a particular strategy used by bad actors of dividing edits on similar pages across a number of accounts in order to evade detection. Researchers then tested an approach of filtering edits by blocked editors based on whether they add references to state-media affiliated or sponsored sites, and found that a number of edits exhibited narratives consistent with Kremlin-sponsored information warfare. Based on this, researchers were able to identify a number of other Wikipedia pages where blocked editors introduced state-affiliated domains [...]" </p> </blockquote> <p>The report offers a great overview of Wikipedia's existing mechanisms for dealing with such issues, based on numerous conversations with community members and other experts. However, the literature review indicates that the authors – despite confidently <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.wired.com/story/wikipedia-state-sponsored-disinformation/">telling <i>Wired</i> magazine</a> "We've never tried to analyze Wikipedia data in that way before" – were unfamiliar with a lot of existing academic research (e.g. about finding alternative accounts, aka sockpuppets, of abusive editors); the 39 references cited in the report include only a single peer-reviewed research paper. Likewise, despite the hope that their findings could yield "new tools" (<i>Wired</i>) that would support combating disinformation on Wikipedia, there is no indication that the authors were aware of past and ongoing research-supported product development efforts to build such tools, by the Wikimedia Foundation and others, some of which are outlined below. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://twitter.com/carljackmiller/status/1582724612990717953">On Twitter</a>, the lead author stated that "We're going to be doing more research on information warfare on Wikipedia with a new project kicking off later this month [October]", so perhaps some of these gaps can still be bridged. </p><p><br/> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="How_existing_research_efforts_could_help_editors_fight_disinformation" data-mw-thread-id="h-How_existing_research_efforts_could_help_editors_fight_disinformation-signpost-article-title"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-How_existing_research_efforts_could_help_editors_fight_disinformation-signpost-article-title"></span>How existing research efforts could help editors fight disinformation<span data-mw-comment-end="h-How_existing_research_efforts_could_help_editors_fight_disinformation-signpost-article-title"></span></h3></div> <p>Exactly two years ago, in the run-up to the 2020 US elections, the Wikimedia Foundation published a <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://wikimediafoundation.org/news/2020/10/30/how-wikipedia-is-preparing-for-election/">blog post</a> noting concerns about a "rising rate and sophistication of disinformation campaigns" on the internet by coordinated actors, about elections and other topics such as the global pandemic or climate change, and providing a summary of how Wikipedia specifically was addressing such threats. </p><p>After mentioning the volunteer community's "robust mechanisms and editorial guidelines that have made the site one of the most trusted sources of information online" and announcing an internal anti-disinformation task force at the Foundation (which reportedly still exists, although one former member recently stated they were unaware what its current work areas are) as well as "strengthened capacity building by creating several new positions, including anti-disinformation director and research scientist roles," the post focused on summarizing how </p> <blockquote style="padding-left:1.0em; padding-right:1.0em; background-color:#eaf8f4;"> <p>"the Foundation's research team, in collaboration with multiple universities around the world, delivered a suite of new research projects that examined how disinformation could manifest on the site. The insights from the research led to the product development of new human-centered machine learning services that enhance the community's oversight of the projects.<br/> These algorithms support editors in tasks such as detecting unsourced statements on Wikipedia and identify malicious edits and behavior trends. </p> </blockquote> <p>With the US mid-term elections imminent and independent researchers apparently being unaware of these research projects at the Foundation (see above), now seems a good time to take a look at how they have developed in the meantime. As "some of the tools used or soon available to be used by editors", the October 2020 post listed the following: </p> <blockquote style="padding-left:1.0em; padding-right:1.0em; background-color:#eaf8f4;"> <ul><li>An <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://wikimediafoundation.org/news/2019/04/03/can-machine-learning-uncover-wikipedias-missing-citation-needed-tags/">algorithm that identifies unsourced statements</a> or edits that require citation.

We train this model on existing Wikipedia references, therefore learning from the contributions and combined wisdom of thousands of Wikipedia editors. Using crowd-sourcing, we observe that for the top 10% most likely citations to be tagged as unverifiable by our system, humans prefer our system's suggested alternatives compared to the originally cited reference 70% of the time. To validate the applicability of our system, we built a demo to engage with the English-speaking Wikipedia community and find that Side's first citation recommendation collects over 60% more preferences than existing Wikipedia citations for the same top 10% most likely unverifiable claims according to Side. Our results indicate that an AI-based system could be used, in tandem with humans, to improve the verifiability of Wikipedia." </p> </blockquote> <p>See also <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Machine_Learning_Assisted_Wikipedia_Editing" class="extiw" title="m:Research:Machine Learning Assisted Wikipedia Editing">research project page on Meta-wiki</a> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id=""Countering_Disinformation_by_Finding_Reliable_Sources:_a_Citation-Based_Approach"" data-mw-thread-id="h-"Countering_Disinformation_by_Finding_Reliable_Sources:_a_Citation-Based_Approac-Other_recent_publications"><span id=".22Countering_Disinformation_by_Finding_Reliable_Sources:_a_Citation-Based_Approach.22"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-"Countering_Disinformation_by_Finding_Reliable_Sources:_a_Citation-Based_Approac-Other_recent_publications"></span>"Countering Disinformation by Finding Reliable Sources: a Citation-Based Approach"<span data-mw-comment-end="h-"Countering_Disinformation_by_Finding_Reliable_Sources:_a_Citation-Based_Approac-Other_recent_publications"></span></h4></div> <p>From the abstract:<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <blockquote style="padding-left:1.0em; padding-right:1.0em; background-color:#eaf8f4;"> <p>"Given a one sentence claim, the challenge is to automatically find a knowledge source (e.g. a book, a research article, a web page) that could support or refute the claim.
