This model uses data about a revision to predict the likelihood that the revision is in good faith.

Motivation

Not all damaging edits are vandalism. This model is intended to differentiate between edits that are intentionally harmful (badfaith/vandalism) and edits that are intended to be harmful (good edits/goodfaith damage). The model provides a guess at whether or not a given revision is in good faith, and provides some probabilities to serve as a measure of its confidence level. This model was inspired by research of Wikipedia's quality control system and the potential for vandalism detection models to also be used as "goodfaith newcomer" detection systems.

Users and uses

Use this model for

• This model should be used for prioritizing the review and potential reversion of vandalism on {{{language}}} {{{project}}}.
• This model should be used for detecting goodfaith contributions by editors on {{{language}}} {{{project}}}.

Don't use this model for

• This model should not be used as an ultimate arbiter of whether or not an edit ought to be considered good faith.
• The model should not be used outside of {{{language}}} {{{project}}}.

Current uses

• {{{language}}} {{{project}}} uses the model as a service for facilitating efficient edit reviews or newcomer support.
• On an individual basis, anyone can submit a properly-formatted API call to ORES for a given revision and get back the result of this model.

Example API call:

Ethical considerations, caveats, and recommendations

{{{language}}} {{{project}}} decided to use this model. Over time, the model has been validated through use in the community.

This model is known to give newer editors lower probability of editing in good faith.

Internal or external changes that could make this model deprecated or no longer usable are:

• Data drift means training data for the model is no longer usable.
• Doesn't meet desired performance metrics in production.
• {{{language}}} {{{project}}} community decides to not use this model anymore.

Data

Data pipeline

Tabular data about edits is collected from the Mediawiki API, preprocessed (via log-transformations, joining with public editor data, etc.), and joined with user-generated goodfaith/damaging labels.

Training data

This model was trained using hand-labeled training data that is several years old.

Test data

The statistics reported here were calculated by selecting a random partition of the training data to hold out from the training process. The model then makes a prediction on that data, which is compared to the underlying ground truth.
