Abstract
In this chapter, we investigate the integrity of Wikipedia articles as an example of integrity management in crowdsourcing systems. We first challenge its integrity by performing some experiments. Afterwards, we analyze the dump datasets from its website to find the reasons behind high integrity for few articles and low integrity for majority of them.
