Talk:Reliability of Wikipedia

Other as first subsection?

The section Propagation of misinformation has its first subsection called Other. I think Other is more appropriate for being the name of a last subsection of a section. I think "Commentary [or Comments] about Wikipedia and misinformation" sounds more appropriate. Alfa-ketosav (talk) 15:19, 2 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

Add a second paragraph to the subsection "Tools for testing the reliability of articles":

More recent research has examined automatic assessment of Wikipedia article quality using machine-learning methods. A 2023 systematic literature review of 149 studies found that such approaches commonly use article features, quality metrics, datasets, and machine-learning algorithms, while noting that machine learning is still not widely used by Wikipedia for article-quality assessment.[1] One later study explored real-time quality prediction using 36,000 English Wikipedia articles and 145 features.[2] Carla.lopes (talk) 10:01, 5 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
