Abstract

Many Wikipedia articles that cover the same topic in different language editions are interconnected via cross-language links that enable the understanding of topics in multiple languages, as well as cross-language information retrieval applications. However, cross-language links are added manually by the users of Wikipedia and, as such, are often incorrect. In this paper, we propose an approach to automatically eliminate incorrect cross-language links based on the observation that groups of articles that are pairwise connected through cross-language links form independent connected components. For eachincoherent component (i.e., one that contains two or more articles from the same language edition), our approach assigns acorrectness score to its crosslinks and removes those with the lowest score to make the component coherent. The results of our evaluation on a snapshot of Wikipedia in 8 languages indicates that our approach shows quantitative promise.
