Sure, although we are now going to be off for a couple of weeks due to the
break, we can try this.
Any one to suggest?
Also, one note: in our TO DO list, there has long been "making the
algorithms adaptive to wiki dynamics". In the current analysis of the
Wikipedia, we have optimized the algorithms so that they work well on the
Italian and French Wikipedias, and we have evaluated the performance on the
English one as well. To get good results on Wikibooks, the coefficient in
the current algorithms would need to be adapted, and that's quite a bit of
work on our part. We are working towards self-adaptive algorithms, that
would not require this sort of manual tuning, but that's a bit far off.
Odd as it may sound, it is at this point actually easier for us to make the
analysis work for large wikipedias, than for smaller wikis!

Is it possible to get some of English Wikibooks up as
an experiment? If
you
recall, I was concerned about how our slow editing rate and small editor
community would impact the utility of this implicit system of rating. I'd
also like to see how trust varies across modules of a book.
Thanks!
