Hi everybody,
I was wondering if there is any work answering the question on how "up-to-date"
Wikipedia is.
For some high-impact news, like Snowden's revelation of the PRISM program,
articles are written in mere hours. For others, e.g. business people taking on
important posts in companies and thus becoming Wikipedia-relevant, it sometimes
takes weeks until an article is written (Ian Robertson of BMW is an example).
Is there some work trying to answer this question of how long it takes for
Wikipedia articles to be created after an event became newsworthy (and
eventually ends up in Wikipedia)?
Cheers
Johannes
