Project idea

What is the problem you're trying to solve?

Building a contributing community is one of the bigger challenge in such a project. So preventing involved contributor to develop harmful behavior toward each-other seems important. In academic field, such a behavior could emerge from strong egos, so it may be of use in the 'Journal Scientifique Libre' that I try to develop.

What is your solution?

According to different kind of behavior on a wiki, harassment can (may) be spotted from time and practice divergence with 'normal' behavior.

Frequency, ___location and content. Analytical tools could be devised to check activity of an account to specific pages (extension of contribution analysis). A 'high' frequency edition from the same user toward a same page (discussion or user), for a 'long' time period, with strong correlation with a 'controlled vocabulary list' based on reported harassment cases, could : either create an action (trigger an alert, pause a temporary protection) , or be used as proof in sanction applications.

About the idea creator

Hi, I'm Rudy PATARD. I'm a (father, husband, human being) PhD student in north of France. I'm no pro on wikis but I studied some of its potential. I'm willing to learn more about the programming surrounding wikis (bot in particular).
