Question:

What is controversial and where is it controversial?

Subprojects

1. Controversy templates

Creation of list of templates that relate to controversies on Wikipedia

Creation of piece of software that tells us which templates are associated with articles. Software should be able to create a list of issues based on templates

Method:

(1) Creation of a list of templates through (a) editorial selection within Wikipedia and (b) comparison of results with top 300 results from Google (query: templates wikipedia?).

(2) Creation of filter which allows a comparison of different templates and thereby allows identifying various controversy types within Wikipedia.

Wikipedia template filter

2. Case study

Gay rights in different language Wikipedias
