    Wikipedia has since its inception in 2001 become the world’s largest encyclopedia and continues to enjoy a high degree of support from the general public. This report investigate differences in the user creation process of content between political and unpolitical articles. According to the results the revisions per user follow a similar pyramid pattern in both the political and unpolitical articles. When investigating the number of reverts the results differ between the political and unpolitical articles. More reverts are made by semi active users in the political articles.  The report also establish that some political categories exhibit a significantly longer edit history than the Wikipedia average and that these categories contain a disproportionately high number of reverts among their revisions.  Conclusions are that there are differences between political and unpolitical articles in regard to who do reverts and the number of reverts per page.Wikipedia har sedan det skapades 2001 blivit vĂ€rldens största encyclopedia och den fortsĂ€tter erhĂ„lla en hög grad av stöd och tillit frĂ„n allmĂ€nheten. Denna rapport undersöker skillnader i anvĂ€ndarbeteende under skapande processen av innehĂ„ll för politiska och opolitiska artiklar. Det framkom att politiska artiklar uppvisar en liknande pyramid struktur som opolitiska i hĂ€nseende till antalet revisioner per anvĂ€ndare men att de skiljer sig i hĂ€nseende till reverts, som till en högre grad utförs av mellan-aktiva anvĂ€ndare i politiska artiklar. Rapporten tar Ă€ven och visar att vissa politiska kategorier har lĂ€ngre editeringshistorier Ă€n Wikipedias genomsnitt och dessa kategorier innehĂ„ller en oproportionerligt hög andel reverts bland sina revisioner. Slutsatser Ă€r att det finns skillnader mellan politiska och opolitiska artiklar i hĂ€nseende till vem som gör reverts och antalet reverts per sida
