The Geography of Wikipedia

January 31, 2011

Wikipedia celebrated its 10th birthday. So at the de-Wikipedia’s Kartenwerkstatt the idea came up to produce a couple of maps about the (meta-) geography of Wikipedia.

The first one shows the total count of georeferenced articles per square kilometer and also depicts the so called featured articles (excellent and worth reading).

The next map shows the growth of wikipedia articles from February to December 2010.
