Hey Everyone,

I wanted to share with you this visualization of geo-tagged articles from
South Asia, including India.  Please see the image
here.<http://www.zerogeography.net/2011/12/geography-of-wikipedia-article-quality.html>The
analysis was conducted by a researcher at the Oxford Internet
Institute, Mark Graham, who has been conducting research on geo-location
and Wikipedia. The data is only from English Wikipedia.  It is interesting
to note  concentration of geo-tagged articles from Kerala, Nepal and Indian
metropolises: Mumbai. Delhi, Chennai etc. Mark has done more analysis in
his blog, and he informed me that he would love input from the community in
India. If you would like, please provide him insights through the comment
section.

Mark has been using publicly available data to conduction geo analysis of
Wikipedia articles, and editors.  If you would like to read more about his
research, you can visit his website
