[June 10, 2010]
The ACL Wiki opened to the public on October 18th, 2006. The mandate of the wiki is to facilitate the sharing of information on all aspects of Computational Linguistics. The ACL Wiki includes pointers to corpora, software, journals, conferences, workshops, blogs, researcher home pages, state-of-the-art system comparisons, employment opportunities, course descriptions, and many other resources for computational linguists.
The following table summarizes the growth of the wiki. The number of page views has increased each year. The yearly number of page edits has been constant, with a shift from the creation of new pages to the refinement and expansion of existing pages. Current statistics are available online on the Wiki.
| Year | Cumulative page views | Yearly page views | Daily page views | Cumulative edits | Yearly edits | Daily edits | Number of long pages |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2010 | 1,230,000 | 480,000 | 1,315 | 8,000 | 2,000 | 5 | 293 |
| 2009 | 750,000 | 400,000 | 1,095 | 6,000 | 2,000 | 5 | 267 |
| 2008 | 350,000 | 250,000 | 685 | 4,000 | 2,000 | 5 | 235 |
| 2007 | 100,000 | 100,000 | 275 | 2,000 | 2,000 | 5 | 100 |
The wiki hosts two Community Portals, the Natural Language Generation Portal and the Textual Entailment Portal. Both portals contain a wealth of useful information for researchers in these communities. Community Portals are an excellent tool for supporting a community of researchers who share a common interest in a specific problem.
All members of ACL are strongly encouraged to contribute to the ACL Wiki. Whatever subfield of Computational Linguistics you work in, this is your opportunity to raise the profile of research in your area. The time you invest in the ACL Wiki will have high returns for the community.
