Wikipedia:AI or not quiz - Wikipedia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Test your AI detection skills! Determine whether each of the following Wikipedia articles are written by a human or an AI. Answers and signs of AI writing present are given at the bottom of each page. Note that some articles have been modified to remove obvious tells (like access dates) and the page history spoils the answer.

This test is not perfect: in the real world, the page history and the page creator's other edits should be considered.

• Hamimh2 (talk) 7/10! I thought some articles that were human were AI!! Humans, write better! Still great score though!
• Luckytoday: 8/10. I think I was just lucky. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ~2026-24916-43 (talk)
• Sddarealone (talk) : 7/10. I had few of my reasons correct for which I can't give spoilers here. The human ones quite honestly were surprising as I might have confirmation bias once few articles looked to be AI generated.
• Mcrst.sean^(talk): 6/10. I thought 3 of the article we're AI, and one I thought was human.
• Pwoli: 8/10. Both mistakes were AI false positives.

• User:Randomperson112: 6/10; 2 of my mistakes were false AI positives, while the other two I mistaked for real human writing.
• User:Edwardcap007: 9/10; had great difficulty checking signs, mostly focused on the references in the articles as well as wikitext formatting...
• User:ElanorellëDuhíriel: 6/10; all four misses were false positives for AI writing. I might be too overly suspicious...

• User:CR055H41RZ = 3/10,3 were correct as human/ai, 2 I focused on tiny details and mistook human for AI, 2 AI I missed, and 3 I got wrong. I felt like I was getting more used to the right and wrong answers by the end. (Bold letters)

• ✶Quxyz✶ 8/10, misidentifying Jewish peoplehood and Rapa fruit dove as AI. I think that those were the hardest, though.
• Altoids0 (talk) 18:06, 4 March 2026 (UTC) 8/10, although that implies that I'm allowed to give myself the point for discovering Jewish Peoplehood in the wild [reply]
• saraheileen76 6/10
• —pythoncoder (talk | contribs): 10/10
• MCPro1239953: 7/10
• Smallangryplanet: 8/10
• foxtail286: 7/10 (Yikes, these were tough!!)
• Akbermamps: 7/10, oof. Felt like the last one could've gone either way.
• Aperture541: 9/10. False-positive on "Jewish peoplehood". In hindsight, it was obvious, but I was a bit hung-up on the bullet points and the bolding.
• Elkman ^(Elkspeak) 20:42, 16 March 2026 (UTC): 6/10.[reply]
• Broc (talk) 15:57, 17 March 2026 (UTC) 9/10, it was fun[reply]
• ClaudineChionh (she/her · talk · email · global) 00:48, 20 March 2026 (UTC): 7/10. Two false positives were the same as some of the spoilered ones above, though I did note one as "sloppy writing" so maybe I should rate this higher as an indication of humanity. The one false negative was one I noted as "Human spammer" – I think because at AfC or NPP I tend to decline or CSD for spam/promo reasons unless the AI is bleedingly obvious.[reply]
• User:Kvng: 5/10. My detection is as good as a coin flip. 01:55, 20 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
• User:Phlogiston Enthusiast: 10/10. I have a sense for these things, I guess.
• User:Wh3reitwill: 9/10; i failed on jewish peoplehood.
• User:Gugalcrom123: 8/10; the two mistakes were falsely labelled LLM.
• N51 DELTA TALK - 7/10, mistaken 2 pages for AI when they were human made, and 1 was mistaken for human made when it was AI made.
• Fallbackintoreality (t • c): 5.5/10. I originally thought one of them was mixed, but it turned out that it wasn't. Two of them were real curve balls, but I also have to remember that this is the stuff AI is trained on.
• ✓ortexPhantom (talk): 8/10
• Dafootballguy 8/10. I presumed a lot more AI then was actually there.
• JeffSpaceman 4/10. I only got 1, 5, 9 and 10 right, which goes to show how much AI I assumed went into these pages. Perhaps I ought to brush up on my AI detection skills...
• OsFish 9/10 I tripped up on Prevagen. But generally, I'm impressed by the Signs of AI page that helped me get 90% right.
• Quofles 7/10 did better than I expected, but a lot of false positives on my part. Relied a bit too heavily on punctuation, bullet point markers. I need to focus a bit more on generalisations and lack of references in statements.
• AmaSofiSofSof 8/10 honestly I think I was lucky to score so high, I have only skimmed the AI writing signs article, and I wanted to test myself without much prior knowledge on AI writing, I feel like a larger sample ( at least twice or 3 times as large should do) would give a much clearer picture.
• Ace.Still.Life 8/10 main one that tripped me up was #8 because it looked so AI lolz, that was fun
• Azurean72: 10/10! Quite surprised I managed to do so well, I was pretty split on a few of them.
• Lea-Kim: 8/10 It was not as easy as I thought it would be. I tried to focus on the Avoidance of basic copulatives and it helped a lot.
• 8/9. I had accidentally viewed Aperture541's score about a false positive on Jewish peoplehood, so I had to skip that one. ozmoozmo@enwiki (talk:contribs) 08:23, 15 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]
• User:Wooahitzy: 9/10, i was surprised i did so well !!
• User:MangoMan11: 3/10... The human stuff looked AI generated to me and the AI stuff looked human. I do not think that many of these tells (i.e. red links and using other Wikipedia pages as a source) are very good for distinguishing AI from humans because I have encountered human editors making many of these same mistakes before
• 5/10. Humans, please write better! EinesteinNobel — ${\displaystyle E=mc^{2}}$ 22:41, 30 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

RAK1999 : 7/10

• User:EditWarCriminal 8/10, like many other users here I falsely marked the Jewish Peoplehood and Rapa Fruit Dove articles as AI-generated. I really should have remembered that people were in fact able to write lists with bolded words before 2022. As for the Rapa Fruit Dove one I think I just got suspicious of the unusually short yet verbose paragraphs, but I failed to consider it might just be a very unusual person!
• Hey, Campssitie here, Got a 9/10. Not perfect, but not bad either! I tripped on The Jewish Peoplehood article being LLM-generated. Overrall, this was a blast to do! Thanks for all the wonderful people for making this test, and the people who did it, too. ★ Campssitie (msg) (contribs) 🧋🏖 19:31, 2 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]
• 9/10. I wish there was a larger corpus for this sort of thing, I don't like second-guessing myself. Thanks! Seercat3160 (talk) 01:15, 4 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]
