Abstract: This paper presents experiments with applying social network analysis on data about editing of semantic media wiki. As a number of users are editing the same wiki pages, one can view them as a social network of people interacting via wiki pages. We propose representation of the wiki editing log files as a graph either of users that are connected if they are editing the same pages or of pages that are connected if edited by the same users. We apply social network analysis on such graphs in order to provide some insights into activity of the editors of semantic wiki pages.
