New dataset of articles tagged by WikiProjects
by Isaac Johnson 16 Jan '20

16 Jan '20

Hey Research Community, TL;DR New dataset: https://figshare.com/articles/Wikipedia_Articles_and_Associated_WikiProject… More details: I wanted to notify everyone that we have published a dataset of the articles on English Wikipedia that have been tagged by WikiProjects [1] through templates on their associated talk pages. We are not planning to make this an ongoing release, but I have provided the script that I used to generate it in the Figshare item so that others might update / adjust to meet their needs. As anyone who has done research on WikiProjects knows, it can be complicated to determine what articles fit under a particular WikiProject's purview. The motivation for generating this dataset was to support our work in developing topic models for Wikipedia (see [2] for an overview), but we imagine that there are many other ways in which this dataset might be useful: * Previous work has examined how active WikiProjects are based on edits to their pages in the Wikipedia namespace. This dataset makes it much easier to identify which Wikiprojects are managing the most valuable articles on Wikipedia (in terms of quality or pageviews). * Many topic-level analyses of Wikipedia rely on the category network. Categories can be very messy and difficult to work with, but WikiProjects represent an alternative that often is simpler and still quite rich. For instance, this could be used for temporal analyses of article quality, demand, or distribution by topic. * While WikiProjects are English-only and therefore limited in their utility to other languages, we also provide the Wikidata ID and sitelinks -- i.e. titles for corresponding articles in other languages -- to allow for multilingual analyses. This could be used to compare gaps in coverage -- e.g., akin to past work that has used categories [3]. The main challenge, besides processing time, is how to 1) effectively extract the WikiProject templates from talk pages, and, 2) consistently link them to a canonical WikiProject name and topic. For example, the canonical template for WikiProject Medicine is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:WikiProject_Medicine but another one used is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:WPMED&redirect=no (and there are 13 more). To capture articles tagged with these many templates and all link them to the same canonical WikiProject and eventually higher-level topic, we built a near-complete list of WikiProjects based on the WikiProject Directory [4] and gathered all of their associated templates. We purposefully excluded WikiProjects under the assistance / maintenance category [5]. When parsing talk pages from the dump files then, we check for any of these templates and list them under their canonical name. As a backup, we also employ case-insensitive string matching with "WP" and "WikiProject", which helps to guarantee that we did not miss any WikiProjects but introduces a number of false positives as well. If you wish to map the WikiProjects listed in the dataset to their higher-level topics, the mapping is in the figshare item and code that allows you to do that can be found here: https://github.com/wikimedia/drafttopic/blob/master/drafttopic/utilities/ta… [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council [2] https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3274290 [3] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Newsletter/2019/September#Wikipedi… [4] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Directory [5] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Directory/Wikip… Best, Isaac -- Isaac Johnson (he/him/his) -- Research Scientist -- Wikimedia Foundation

Re: [Wiki-research-l] Availability of hourly pagecounts files

That's fascinating, John; thank you. I'm copying this to wiki-research-l and Fabian Suchanek, who gave the first part of the Research Showcase last month. What do you like for coding stories? https://quanteda.io/reference/dfm.html ? Sentiment is hard because errors are often 180 degrees away from correct. How do you both feel about Soru et al (June 2018) "Neural Machine Translation for Query Construction and Composition" https://www.researchgate.net/publication/326030040 ?

How many papers / books about wikis?
by Ziko van Dijk 08 Jan '20

08 Jan '20

Hello, to everyone to whom it concerns, my best wishes for the year 2020! I am interested in the number of scientific papers or monographies, articles etc. about wikis. Do you know about a paper that has come up with a relatively recent number? In my understanding, there are several problems that make it unwise to simply search for "wiki" in a general catalogue: * the word wiki can appear in words such as "Wikinger" (German for: viking), or it is used as a metaphor (e.g., for a reform of democracy) * some entities such as Wikileaks have "wiki" in their name, but are no wikis, and some entities such as Open Street Map are wikis, but don't have the word in their name * wiki relevant topics may appear under terms such as "collaborative writing" or "open content creation". Kind regards Ziko

Hi, Does anyone know a way to find out how many wikimedia users are active globally compared to active on metawiki? This mean they've made more than 5 edits in the last 30 days for this. Thanks, RhinosF1

Some near to mid-term changes that might be useful for everyone chiming in: * Active Editors across all wikis is a metric we're working on, and it will be part of Wikistats 2 sometime this fiscal year * The new mediawiki history dataset will let you download data for all wikis and crunch these numbers and much more: https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/mediawiki_history/readme.html (we're close to publishing this but there's sample data for last August) Maybe a little showcase talk is in order once the above two are completed?

Dear Wikimedia Researchers, I am writing to you from the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University<https://cyber.harvard.edu/> - a public interest research center dedicated to exploring, understanding, and shaping the development of the digitally-networked environment. We are now accepting fellowship applications for the 2020-2021 academic year through our annual open call<https://cyber.harvard.edu/getinvolved/fellowships/2021Fellows>. This fellowship opportunity is for those who wish to spend 2020-2021 in residence in Cambridge, MA as part of the Center's vibrant community of research and practice, and who seek to engage in collaborative, cross-disciplinary, and cross-sectoral exploration of some of the Internet's most important and compelling issues. Some more information is below, and I invite you to check out our full call<https://cyber.harvard.edu/getinvolved/fellowships/2021Fellows>, which has more information about our community activities and the application process. Please feel most welcome to share this information with others in your network who may have interest. Any questions can be directed to 2021opencall(a)cyber.harvard.edu<mailto:2021opencall@cyber.harvard.edu>. Applications will be accepted until Friday January 31, 2020 at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time. More about the fellowship program: Fellows are supported in an inviting and playful intellectual environment - we have community activities designed to foster inquiry and risk-taking, to identify and expose common threads across fellows’ individual activities, and to bring fellows into conversation with the students, staff, faculty, and broader community at the Berkman Klein Center. We invite applications from people working on a broad range of opportunities and challenges related to Internet and society, which may overlap with ongoing work at the Berkman Klein Center and may expose our community to new opportunities and approaches. We encourage applications from scholars, practitioners, innovators, engineers, artists, and others committed to understanding and advancing the public interest who come from —and have interest in — countries industrialized or developing, with ideas, projects, or activities in all phases on a spectrum from incubation to reflection. To make fellowships a possibility for as wide a range of applicants as possible, in the 2020-2021 academic year we will award a small number of stipends to incoming fellows. This funding is intended to support people from communities who are underrepresented in fields related to Internet and society, who will contribute to the diversity of the Berkman Klein Center’s research and activities, and who have financial need. More information about this funding opportunity may be found here<https://cyber.harvard.edu/getinvolved/fellowships/stipends-for-candidates-2…>. The work and well-being of the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society are profoundly strengthened by the diversity of our network and our differences in background, culture, experience, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, race, ethnicity, age, ability, and much more. We actively seek and welcome people of color, women, the LGBTQIA+ community, persons with disabilities, and people at intersections of these identities, from across the spectrum of disciplines and methods. The full call for applications may be found at: https://cyber.harvard.edu/getinvolved/fellowships/2021Fellows Applications will be accepted until Friday January 31, 2020 at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time.
