Visualizing the Overlap Between the 100 Most Visited Pages on Wikipedia for September 2006 to January 2007 - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2007, written by Anselm Spoerri.

Overview

This paper compares the monthly lists of the 100 most visited Wikipedia pages for the period of September 2006 to January 2007. searchCrystal is used to visualize the overlap between the five monthly Top 100 lists to show which pages are highly visited in all five months; which pages in four of the five months and so on. It is shown that almost 40 percent of a month’s top 100 pages are visited in all five months, whereas 25 percent are highly visited only in a single month. The presented visualizations make it possible to gain quick insights into the overlap and topical relationships between the monthly lists.
