What's on Wikipedia, and What's Not…? Completeness of Information on the Online Collaborative Encyclopedia - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2007, written by Cindy Royal and Deepina Kapila.
Overview
The World Wide Web continues to grow closer to achieving the vision of becoming the repository of all human knowledge. While improved search engines such as Google facilitate access of knowledge across the Web, some sites have increased in popularity and have attracted the attention of more Web users than others. Wikipedia is one such site that is becoming an important resource for news and information. It is an online information source that is increasingly used as the first, and sometimes only, stop for online encyclopedic information. Much discussion has dealt with the accuracy of information on Wikipedia. While accuracy is important, that is not what this project is measuring. Using a method employed by Tankard and Royal (2005) to judge completeness of Web content, completeness of information on Wikipedia is assessed. What authors found was that some topics were covered more comprehensively than others and that predictors of these biases included recency, importance, population, and financial wealth.
