Description
The Wikipedia Requests for Adminship (with text) dataset, part of the Stanford Network Analysis Project (SNAP), captures votes crawled from Wikipedia's Request for Adminship (RfA) process from 2003 through May 2013: supporting, neutral, or opposing votes cast by community members on candidates for admin status, each typically accompanied by a short text comment. It induces a directed, signed network in which nodes represent Wikipedia members and edges represent votes, including voter and votee usernames, vote polarity, election outcome, year, timestamp, and comment text, with 11,381 users, 189,004 distinct voter/votee pairs, and 198,275 total votes.
