Where is the science in Wikipedia? Identification and characterization of scientifically supported contents

Arroyo-Machado, Wenceslao; Torres-Salinas, Daniel; Costas, Rodrigo

This study illustrates the challenges of developing a broad Wikipedia thematic landscape. Particularly the limitations of Wikipedia categories in providing an overview of the thematic areas covered in Wikipedia are shown. The use of WikiProjects is presented as a viable although limited alternative, providing interesting classificatory possibilities. The classification proposed here can be useful for further research on Wikipedia as well as for other researchers who want to identify Wikipedia dynamics in a more aggregated and visual way.
