Any web forum is a typical example of a structured source of textual data. Maintaining such a forum requires many manual processing from the webmaster, even more as the volume of data grows. The quality of the structure and the moderation process is thus strongly dependent on the available time. In this article, we are interested in applying data mining tools, especially co-clustering algorithms, in order to propose some automation. We illustrate and validate our proposal on cam-eravideo.net's forum 1. The website cameravideo.net was the premier french website dealing with amateur and professional video.
