I've been trying to find info related to this question (also specifically
related to usage of WikiData) but haven't been able to find anything. Was
just wondering whether there has been any new research in this area since
the question was posed last year?
Many thanks.
Best,
heather.

Hi Adam,
Thank for sharing your experience. I'm very curious to see what ideas come
up to study this.

Subject: Re: [Wiki-research-l] What percentage of digital assistants cite
Wikipedia?
Over the weekend, I tried a few voice queries with Cortana and noticed
sometimes it sources things from Wikipedia in the Windows OS native
component. And when I said "Wikipedia goldfish" it opened a browser to Bing
with the search query.
Ward, I agree that an academic group or perhaps the Foundation might be in
a position to ask or ascertain some sort of information. That said, I
believe the information is pretty carefully guarded. I've in general wished
to have a sense of aggregate changes (e.g., fluctuation of percentage of
impressions involving Wikimedia content and the raw delta of
Wikimedia-involved impressions) - for understanding impact, like you
mention - even if the data had to be time delayed.
Claudia, I was curious, would you explain a bit more on editors wanting to
know? Is it about broad reach numbers as Ward mentioned, or something else?

I would assume that each of these device operators
would have detailed analytics regarding the degree
that they reuse Wikimedia content. Editors might
be inspired to know the extension of reach thus
provided. I wonder if the foundation, or some
academic institution, might be a suitable
intermediary to work with the operators to make
this information generally available so as to
encourage continued volunteer participation.
