Wikipedia Tools for Google Spreadsheets - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2016, written by Thomas Steiner.

Overview

In this paper, authors introduce the Wikipedia Tools for Google Spreadsheets. Google Spreadsheets is part of a free, Web-based software office suite offered by Google within its Google Docs service. It allows users to create and edit spreadsheets online, while collaborating with other users in realtime. Wikipedia is a free-access, free-content Internet encyclopedia, whose content and data is available, among other means, through an API. With the Wikipedia Tools for Google Spreadsheets, authors have created a toolkit that facilitates working with Wikipedia data from within a spreadsheet context. Authors make these tools available as open-source on GitHub [1], released under the permissive Apache 2.0 license.
