This past August 20, I wrote blog post introducing the Wikipedia Trust Coloring Tool from the UC Santa Cruz’s Wiki Lab. Since then, the tool has been featured on slashdot and Wired. To this blogpost on slashdot, people have responded with their thoughts about the tool. Someone suggested to create a wikipedia entry about the algorithm and run the tool on the entry to assess its trustworthiness. Another person discussed the potential that those who reveal misdeeds are judged less trustworthy because their entries are likely to be edited out. In this Wired article, Bergstein acknowledges that the tool is not foolproof for the reasons just mentioned, but reveals “interesting insights”. Bergstein reports that the tool’s developer, Luca de Alfaro, hopes to work with the Wikimedia Foundation to make the tool a real-time option for users. However, no official decisions have been made. How people react to such tool and appropriate it might determine the tool’s future trajectory.
