Abstract

Information of many articles is lacking in Wikipedia because users can create and edit the information freely. We specifically examined the multilinguality of Wikipedia and proposed a method to complement information of articles which lack information based on comparing different language articles that have similar contents. However, much non-complementary information is unrelated to a user’s browsing article in the results. Herein, we propose improvement of the comparison area based on the classified complementary target.
