Wikirank.net (or WikiRank) - is online Web service for automatic relative evaluation and comparison of the articles in the various language versions of Wikipedia.
The first mention of the service in scientific works was in 2015.[1] One of the researches that describes the results of the quality assessment using the WikiRank service was recognized as one of the most important findings of Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects in 2017–2018.[2]
The distinctive feature of the service is that it allows assess quality and popularity of Wikipedia articles by a scale from 0 to 100 as a result of synthetic measure calculation. This simplifies the comparison of the articles language versions, which can have various grading schemes and assessment standards.[3] To obtain quality and popularity grades, WikiRank uses different important normalized measures, such as:
- text length[4][5]
- number of references[6][7]
- sections[8][9]
- images [10][11]
- number of visits[12][13]
- and others.[14][15][16]
In the beginning, the service allowed to compare the quality of articles in 7 language versions. Now the service can evaluate articles in more than 50 major language editions of Wikipedia. In future it is planned to include new measures for quality assessment, including social signals from Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, VKontakte, LinkedIn and other social sources[17], as well as quality analysis of the references using Google, Bing, Yahoo!, Baidu, Yandex and other search engines.[18][19]
WikiRank is used also for didactic purposes in various higher educational institutions (such as the University of Warsaw[20]).
Scores provided by WikiRank used in quality assessment of infoboxes.[21]
