Abstract
An approach is provided for an information handling system that includes a processor and a memory to analyze documents. In the approach, an electronic document is received with the document including content, such as text, and revision metadata that is associated with the content. The revision metadata is analyzed and the approach identifies a confidence level based on the analysis. The confidence level is associated with the electronic document content. The confidence level can then be utilized by a Question and Answer (QA) system.
