History Flow Shows How Wiki Articles Evolve

Posted by Zonk on from the shows-border-wars-between-wiki-thugs dept.

teslatug writes "IBM has released a preliminary alpha version of its History Flow Visualization Application that shows how collaboratively created documents evolve. The tool is written in Java and it's available for download along with plugins for MoinMoin and MediaWiki. They have some interesting screenshots of the Wikipedia articles on abortion, Brazil, and love."

    Instead of linking simply to the download page and the screenshots, give people a chance to RTFA and link to the History Flow Visualization Application's overview document.

    Heavy Metal Umlat is a very interesting look at the history of a Wiki page. Worth checking out.
