Kerry,
Here are a couple recent pieces on predicting conversation outcomes, that
I'm aware of.
1.

2.

There's another recent one about predicting whether RFCs will be closed,
that Chris Schilling worked on with some folks from MIT. That's been
accepted to a conference, but not officially published yet--so I don't
*think* Mako would have mentioned it at Wikimania?
Hope that helps,
J

Or perhaps you were recalling the talk page research summarized in this
year's "State of Wikimedia Research"
<https://wikimania2018.wikimedia.org/wiki/Program/

Wikimania presentation?

Some time in the last few months (possibly at
Wikimania) someone pointed
me
at some research about predicting the outcome of
Wikipedia consensus
building from the language they were using in Talk. I think it was either
research in progress or recently completed.
As I recall, the main "take home" message was that discussions where
"you"
started to be used tended to end up in conflict
and that discussions that
avoided "you" were more likely to resolve amicably.
If this rings any bells for you, can you please point me at it please.
Thanks
Kerry
