- "...a call for participation on a project to detect online plagiarism and vandalism at Wikipedia" Does this mean we're going to see a rise in vandalism for research purposes? Wonderful. ALI nom nom 21:35, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- "The Pan 2010 Lab has published a call for participation on a project to detect online plagiarism and vandalism at Wikipedia." - I think technological development in this area is an absolute necessity for the continued tenability of the project as a whole. Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations has compellingly demonstrated that plagiarism caught early is dealt with easily, while plagiarism caught late can result in a devastating sinkhole of lost contributions and lost productivity to thousands of articles. Props to Yahoo Research for promoting this. Dcoetzee 22:58, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Usability Project to become permanent – I hope this doesn't mean the Usability Beta becomes a permanent beta and thus is never installed as the default. R. S. Shaw (talk) 06:30, 4 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- from what I read in the link, it is 2 distinct tasks : "plagiarism detection" (at large, not dedicaced to wikipédia) ; and "Wikipedia vandalism detection". the Yahoo! Research award will go to the plagiarism detection project. DarkoNeko x 12:22, 4 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
