Kerry, Here are a couple recent pieces on predicting conversation outcomes, that I'm aware of.
1. https://arxiv.org/pdf/1805.05345.pdf 2. http://www.aclweb.org/anthology/I17-1103 There's another recent one about predicting whether RFCs will be closed, that Chris Schilling worked on with some folks from MIT. That's been accepted to a conference, but not officially published yet--so I don't *think* Mako would have mentioned it at Wikimania?
