I Made a Graph of Wikipedia... This Is What I Found

Code for all my videos: Twitter: A deep dive into the network of Wikipedia and some of the the most interesting, bizarre, and unique articles on the website. Music: Beyond the Wall - Sugoi How About Now? - Andreas Dahlbäck First Horizon - ELFL Neroli - Ennio Máno Tree Tops - Autohacker Technical details for nerds: - Data is collected from Wikipedia dumps - Graph is made with python-igraph - Distributed Recursive Layout algorithm is used for the graph layout - Leiden algorithm is used for community detection - A valid article is any page in Wikipedia’s article namespace excluding redirect pages, disambiguation pages, and soft redirects - A valid link is a link in an articles body. Links that appear in or after the “See Also“ section and links that appear as footnotes are not included since these are not really a part of the article’s body. Links in and after the “See Also“ section of pages are typically not used in Wikipedia races. 0:00 Intro 1:00 Communities 4:07 Popular Articles 7:38 Orphans & Dead Ends 10:23 6 Degrees of Wikipedia 14:56 Longest Path on Wikipedia 17:06 FANTA CAKE 19:20 Outro
