Connect two articles on Wikipedia, but do it the long way. I've always been a fan of the theory of six degree of separation, but it's an overused concept when exploring the Wiki-graph. Instead of showing the shortest path, which in my opinion is "boring" and ends up connecting super-important central articles, I came up with my own method: WikiBinge selects the smaller, less represented articles on Wikipedia. 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…

I built WikiTimeline because of my fascination with history and the desire to easily visualize and compare the lives of historical figures. The tool converts any Wikipedia article into an interactive timeline. For example, I created a timeline of America's Founding Fathers and discovered some interesting patterns I hadn't noticed before: Benjamin Franklin was significantly older than the other Founding Fathers. He was already 70 when the Declaration of Independence was signed, while Alexander Hamilton was only 21! John Adams and Thomas Jefferson both died on July 4, 1826 – exactly 50 years…

Hi HN, WikTok is a UI for Wikipedia that lets you quickly swipe (or use your arrow keys) to navigate between random and recommended articles (based on the previous articles you interacted most with).

Let me know if you have any suggestions (or find any interesting articles!) Cheers,

I'm building a journal app in Kotlin Multiplatform and for this purpose I have created a zoomable timeline interface. This is a side-project where I reuse the timeline interface to display 4 million events imported from Wikipedia / Wikidata, scored using PageRank. There is more information on the about page. If you're interested in the stack: I use Kotlin Multiplatform extensively, with Compose Multiplatform for the UI, communicates with the backend using Kotlinx-RPC and behind the hood a simple Postgres database on a Hetzner machine.
