Estimation of the Locations of the Language-Versions of Wikipedia - a Case Study on Geographic Data Mining - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2011, written by Tobias Dahinden.

Overview

People write about things they believe to know, and in particular those things that are within the environment they live in. They also write in a language they know. Therefore, there is a relation between the individual local environment and the language used for the description. In this paper the areas of several languages are estimated according to the geographic footprint of the language versions of Wikipedia. These estimated language areas are compared to those represented in linguistic maps. The results of this comparison are presented for a subset of Germanic languages.
