Original Abstract Submitted

Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for notifying users of content creation related to existing content expertise. In examples, content associated with a data domain is evaluated to determine the topics associated with the content. User activity for the data domain is monitored to determine user knowledge levels on various topics. User collaboration circles are determined based on interactions between users. When new content is detected, topics in the new content are evaluated and users having knowledge on the topics are identified based on the determined knowledge levels. The users having knowledge on the topics are ranked based in part on their collaboration circles. At least a portion of the ranked users having knowledge on the topics are notified of the new content creation and/or the users creating the new content are notified of the ranked users having knowledge on the topics.
