comment A real-word synonym for the non-word “trustedness”
@Ascendant Actually, action has been used as a verb as early as 1844 in the legal sense. The MBA sense is more recent, but it's already been in use since at least 2004.

@BillFranke Agreed. Sentiment analysis in news and literature is far easier than in scientific articles. A scathing rebuke in science could look like very gentle criticism outside of a journal. That's why the project is so difficult.

If I say that something is any of these, it functions as my own endorsement. What I'm looking for is a metric of other people's opinions, divorced from my own.

comment A real-word synonym for the non-word “trustedness”
I think there's a difference between reliability (or trustworthiness) and trustedness, since if I say an article is trustworthy, it implies that I think it's a good article. If I say that it's trusted, I mean that other people think that it's a good article.

I'm trying to automatically determine how an author of a scientific article feels about the articles he cites. That is, I'm trying to determine (using sentiment analysis) how much one article "trusts" another. It would be nice to have a word for that metric.

comment How should I understand “Although” in this sentence?
I think @Jack understands the definition of the word in general, just not why it is justified in this particular context.
