platform observation

For a long time, WeChat has taken many measures to protect originality. On March 13, 2019, WeChat made another article on the "citation" function, and the upgraded "citation" function supports citing WeChat articles and external content. When citing WeChat articles, the source of the citation (original author, official account, article title) is displayed. Click on the title of the article to jump directly to the original text. When citing external content, the source is optional and cannot be redirected. In addition, the new rules also require that the original text ratio be marked as larger than the ratio of cited text, and the cited part is not included in the original library.

It is worth noting that the rule setting for citing WeChat articles in the new "citation" function can be directly redirected to the original text, which can be said to truly realize the traceability of the citation source. In addition to standardizing citations and protecting originality, it also opens a new entrance for the source content.

New List selected 2019/03/13-2019/03/31. Original content was declared as a research sample in the entire sample, trying to explore the use of citations from WeChat articles (hereinafter referred to as WeChat article citations) in original content in the new "citation" function.

.1 Overview of the usage of WeChat article citations in original content

During the statistics period, a total of 172,558 original public accounts published 498,801 original content in the entire sample, of which 137 (accounting for 0.08%) original public accounts used a total of 208 WeChat article citations in its 174 (accounting for 0.04%) original content. That is to say, 8 out of every 10,000 original public accounts will add WeChat article citations to their tweets, and 4 out of every 10,000 original content will contain WeChat article citations. From this we can see that in the new "citation" function, the frequency of citations of WeChat articles is still very low.

.2 The frequency of citations of the top accounts using WeChat articles is higher in tweets

Statistics on the distribution of the monthly new list index of these 137 accounts that have used WeChat articles cited in tweets found that compared with the monthly new list index distribution of the statistical sample accounts, the distribution of the former is significantly left-sided. The frequency of citations of the top accounts with a monthly new list index of more than 600 is higher in tweets. It may be explained to a certain extent that middle-head accounts have a stronger awareness of standard references.

.3 The WeChat article citation function may be more suitable for scientific, cultural, financial information account

. Then, statistics were conducted on the account categories that had been cited by WeChat articles in these 137 tweets and found that the digests accounted for the largest proportion, at 25%, followed by culture, wealth, technology and entrepreneurship. Therefore, , as a rhetorical method to improve expression effect, is indeed better in combination with scientific, cultural, financial and information styles.

.4 Most of the citations of WeChat articles are citations

Observe these 208 WeChat article citation records. There are 146 citations belonging to the same category in the new list official account classification, accounting for 70.2%, and 126 citations belonging to the same authentication subject (those who are the same account are also considered to be the same subject), accounting for 60.6%, and 124 citations belonging to the same account, accounting for 59.6%. It can be seen that most of the citations of WeChat articles are citations of homogeneous content, which is also very convenient for the same account or matrix to conduct internal traffic.

.5 Small quotations have a stronger demand for large quotations

Further view 84 citation records of citations and cited people belong to different accounts, 81% of the citations are citations of large quotations (referring to the monthly new list index of the cited account being higher than the cited account), or it can reflect a textbook-style standardized citation scenario: use more influential opinions and expressions to express meaning, citation and reasoning.

.6 The number of citations for WeChat articles with a single article is as high as 5

Statistics of these 174 contents containing citations for WeChat articles found that the number of citations for WeChat articles with a single article is distributed from 1 to 5, of which the most citations are included in 1, 149 articles, accounting for 85.6%. It can be seen that most contents may use WeChat article citations as the finishing touch, but some contents need to be analyzed in detail in multiple citations to extend their opinions.

.7 Most citations of WeChat articles are smaller citations

Since the new rules require that the proportion of original text must be greater than the proportion of cited texts before they can be marked original, and the research sample in this article happens to mark original content. Therefore, the proportion of citations in the content counted is not high, almost all below 30%, and the citations are concentrated between 1%-10%, accounting for 59%. That is, in nearly 60% of the content cited by WeChat articles, 1-10 characters are cited for every 100 words, and most of them are cited for smaller citations.

WeChat article citation function has been online for less than a month, and it seems that the usage is not high at present. In any case, WeChat’s original intention and vision for this revision are beautiful, and even a point of view can become an entrance. It has to be said that WeChat’s spirit of exploring the support mechanism for original content is indeed commendable. The new list will continue to observe the usage of WeChat article citations, and we also look forward to everyone unlocking more new ways of playing.

. , as the builder of the content value standards of China's mobile Internet, believes that the ranking without content classification is meaningless and is a manifestation of the lack of in-depth understanding of the value of content.Therefore, in the monthly list that needs to break content categories and implement cross-border comparison, the new list specially introduced category weights (the specific coefficients can be checked on the new list website newrank.cn), and the ecological landscape of the top 500 Chinese WeChat that meets the mainstream social value can be presented as much as possible.
