A SHA1 digest and a local sensitive hash function would do the trick, but a
small vector (that is the form before turning it into a hash) is even better. A
Javascript version of something that works is available as a gadget at
Norwegian (bokmål) Wikipedia.

As I recall the FNV-algoritm is used in MySQL (also PHP?) and should be pretty
effective in native implementations. The rest of the code has some problems in
a few very special usecases and should be fixed, but works fairly well even as
it is.

Basically you need a digest and a local sensitive hash (or fingerprint vector)
to speed up analysis of who is the actual author and whats going on in the
article history.
