Enriched list of litterature reviews on procedural justice and democracy in sustainability transitions
Authors/Creators
Description
The files are an extract of a sample that was built on Wikidata using the following process :
Importing selected articles into Wikidata
We imported the articles available here https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.20749973 into Wikidata. To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran a script to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used another script that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the "export to Wikidata QuickStatements" function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.
Next we used the Cita (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial script did not work that well because of the recent Graph Split on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the "Merge" gadget on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.
Article classification through meta-data enrichement
The project aimed to enrich the medata of academic items by using wikidata. We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : main subject (P921) to describe what the article is about, study type (P8363) to describe its main methodology/research design and research site (P6153) to describe its geographical focus.

Then, for each article, we inferred what the main subject (P921) was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.
Study types
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the different types of litterature reviews present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example integrative literature review (Q137209848) and conceptual review (Q137174203). We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :
| Qid | Study type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Q603441 | bibliometrics | statistical analysis of written publications, such as books or articles |
| Q472342 | scientometrics | study of measuring and analysing science, technology and innovation |
| Q815382 | meta-analysis | statistical method that summarizes data from multiple sources |
| Q1504425 | systematic review | publication type, study that gathers, analyzes, and communicates the results of research and information on a topic |
| Q2412849 | literature review | process of information search and text of a review article (Q7318358), which includes the current knowledge including substantive findings, as well as theoretical and methodological contributions to a particular topic |
| Q6822263 | meta-regression | statistical tool used in meta-analyses |
| Q7301211 | realist evaluation | [...] |
| Q17007303 | combinatorial meta-analysis | [...] |

| Q137209848 | integrative literature review | type of literature review |
| Q137211242 | narrative review | type of literature review, without structured method of retrieval and analysis |
Then, we added the study type (P8363) of each articles based on the abstract and method sections. In case of doubt, we compared our interpretation.
Research site
When an article had a specific geographical focus, we used the property research site (P6153) to describe it. For example, the article "A Review of Energy Communities in Sub-Saharan Africa as a Transition Pathway to Energy Democracy (Q137901202)" focused on sub-Saharan Africa (Q132959).
Authors
We used the Author Disambiguator tool to create Wikidata items for researchers who did not yet have one. This tool helps to minimise errors caused by homonyms among researchers: following a query, it categorises scientific publications into thematic groups. It also automatically searches for ORCID, ResearchGate and VIAF pages.
Note on contributions :
Amelie E. Pereira annotated all the items. Adélie Ranville imported the items in Wikidata, provided the initial list of "main topics" and checked the annotations for topics, study type and research site. Finn Nielsen helped remove duplicate items, provided technical advice and helped visualise the list of imported articles.
