I am a data science student at Wesleyan University. This spring, my professor asked me to choose a data set to visualize. She suggested one that contains a combination of dates, geographic information, and quantitative and qualitative variables. My mind went to Wikipedia.
I've spent a long time searching, but the volume of available data is overwhelming. Can you recommend a specific Wiki dataset?
Thank you.
Hello!
Maybe work with Wikidata instead. Check the query service to get a subset of the data in a specific domain.
Best regards, M.

Lots of inspiration at https://seealso.org/, which is "A collection of our favorite visualizations built on Wikipedia data, curated by Hatnote."
Hope this helps. -xabriel
