I built WikiTimeline because of my fascination with history and the desire to easily visualize and compare the lives of historical figures.

In a WikiBinge path, the underdogs are the kings! How does it work? It's pretty straightforward! Compute PageRank on the Wiki-graph and assign as weight of each edge the PageRank value…
