Online discussions became increasingly widespread with the Web 2.0: no matter the distance, whether you know the person or not, you can discuss and exchange ideas with people all over the world through forums, blogs, and newsgroups. The news websites have extensively used forums in order to encourage the reader being a real participant in the information media. This paper aims at automatically extracting the celebrities from such discussions. We propose certain meta-criteria and we provide an evaluation on a dataset of 35,175 posts written by 14,443 users. The results show that one of the proposed meta-criteria succeeds in extracting celebrities and allows for further improvements.
