Re: [discovery] From Wikimedia-l: Most wanted articles across languages

Not directly a search feature in the sense of our normal queries, indexes, and results pages, but I thought this research by Amir Elisha Aharoni is worth mentioning on this list. Amir has logged the queries people search for via the Compact Language Links search box. He then provides a list of "most wanted" articles. From Amir, "This is a report of the articles that people most often try to find in a different language, and cannot find. This is done by logging the searches in the Compact Language Links' language search box that don't yield any results. For example, if somebody goes to the English Wikipedia article en:Newspaper, searches for "telugu", and this article doesn't exist in the Telugu Wikipedia, this is logged and counted here." https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimedia-l/2018-May/090376.html https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Most_wanted_articles_across_languages Yours, Chris Koerner Community Liaison Wikimedia Foundation _______________________________________________ Discovery mailing list Discovery(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/discovery
