Wigipedia: Visual Editing of Semantic Data in Wikipedia - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2011, written by Svetlin BostandjievJohn and Gretarsson Christopher.
Overview
Wikipedia is emerging as the dominant global knowledge repos-itory. Recently, large numbers of Wikipedia users have col-laborated to produce more structured information in the on-line encyclopedia. For example, the information found in ta-bles, categories and infoboxes. Infoboxes contain key-valuepairs, manually appended to articles based on the unstructuredtext therein. The wiki contains some structured informationwhich can be crawled by DBpedia [2], which attempts to orga-nize wiki data into into a database of subject-predicate-objecttriples. By leveraging this data authors generate an interface, whichwe call WiGipedia, embedded on every Wikipedia article asan interactive graph visualization where entities represent ar-ticles, categories and relational entities, with typed edges be-tween them. This intelligent web interface is designed to sim-plify the elicitation of semantically structured information inWikipedia (Figure 1). Authors motivation is to both inform theuser of interesting contextual information pertaining to the cur-rent article, and to provide a simple way to introduce and/orrepair semantic relations between wiki articles. User actionsresult in improved accuracy and consistency of structured dataspread across multiple articles. WiGipedia provides users withan intuitive interface that allows single-click Wikipedia editswithout knowledge of the Wikipedia markup language, tem-plates, etc. An online demo of the interface can be found atwww.wigipedia-online.com.
