Articles with AI-generated content
[edit]The category Category:Articles containing suspected AI-generated texts contains all articles tagged with the {{AI-generated}} template.
- When an article cites a reference that does not exist, remove the citation and the content that it is cited for.
- Remove citations of questionable sources, and either replace them with reliable sources or remove the content they are cited for.
- Ensure that the article text accurately summarizes the remaining cited sources in an encyclopedic tone.
See the AI catchphrases for tips on identifying LLM-generated text. The Unreliable/Predatory Source Detector (UPSD) user script highlights citation links that contain a specific piece of text added by some AI chatbots.
Talk page discussions with LLM-generated messages
[edit]It is inappropriate to post LLM-generated messages in talk page discussions, especially without disclosing that they are LLM-generated.
- When an undisclosed LLM-generated message is posted, collapse it using templates such as {{hat}} and {{hab}}.
- Ask the editor who posted the LLM-generated message to express their argument in their own words without using an LLM.
- If the editor continues to post LLM-generated comments after being asked to stop using an LLM, report them to the incidents noticeboard.
Discussion comments also use AI catchphrases. Do not solely rely on AI content detection tools (such as GPTZero) to determine whether a message is LLM-generated, as these tools have high error rates.
Sources with AI-generated material
[edit]Sources produced by machine learning are considered unreliable, and should not be cited as sources in articles.
- If a non-notable website that only contains AI-generated content is repeatedly being cited or linked to in articles, request for the website to be placed on the spam blacklist.
- Remove citations of AI-generated sources (and the content they are cited for) or tag them with the {{rs}} inline cleanup template.
- To inquire about the reliability of a source that incorporates AI-generated content, start a discussion on the reliable sources noticeboard.
Prominent media outlets that have adopted AI-generated content, such as multiple Red Ventures websites, have had their reliability reassessed after noticeboard discussions.
