A new research question just came to my mind: how does wiki articles mature? We are currently writing on a paper on defining what a PLME can be and while I was thinking about maturing in general, I thought about the special case of wikis.

Is it feasible to assume that a part of a wiki article that haven’t changed for a period of changes is somewhat static, good, matured? And if, how could you express the maturity level of that part? How would a metric look like, that meassures the influence of the number of edits, the size of the diff, whether there were only little changes or large rearragements, the discussions about the article and all the other stuff that may influence the maturing of an article?

I think we need some statistical data on how articles change in order to say something about the maturity levels of (parts of) wiki articles.
