For any set of annotations being helpful in searching, this property must necessarily hold to a strong degree. Our initial experiments show that the most frequent tags in CiteULike are distinctive features, despite the process of annotating documents is not centrally coordinated nor correction mechanisms like in a Wiki-system are used. %@ 978-1-4503-0148-0
