Global 'AI-Generated' Wikipedia Talk Page Signature Drift

This page monitors signatures in Wikipedia talk page edit histories to detect likely AI-generated contributions. Signatures are extracted daily from edit summaries and analysed for patterns consistent with automated text generation. The metrics track both absolute counts and the proportion of AI-like signatures relative to all signatures, providing insight into potential bot activity or AI-assisted editing trends. While subtle, this phenomenon could signal broader shifts in how edits are made on the platform.
