Methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for determining community gatekeepers in networked systems are provided herein. A method includes identifying a plurality of groups of nodes in a network system, wherein each of the plurality of groups of nodes includes a given node; measuring a marginal contribution made by the given node to a centrality metric associated with each of the identified plurality of groups of nodes in the network system; and deriving a centrality metric of the given node by averaging the marginal contribution made by the given node across each of the identified plurality of groups of nodes in the network system.
