Abstract
Mechanisms are provided for identifying changes, within a corpus of information, to answers to questions provided within the corpus of information. A mapping of a question and a previously provided answer to the question in a question/answer data structure is generated. A transaction referencing the previously provided answer, and having an update to the previously provided answer, is received and correlated with the question/answer data structure, which is updated based on the transaction. A determination is made as to whether the strength of the mapping of the first question to the previously provided answer based on the update to the question/answer data structure has fallen equal to or below a predetermined threshold. In response to this being the case, a change to the previously provided answer is propagated throughout the corpus of information.
