- It combines pageview data with Wikipedia Clickstream navigation, while displaying article quality separately on a 0–100 scale.
Field notes
The layout separates popularity from its quality assessment: tile area tracks pageviews, color marks one of 44 topic categories, and the article panel provides a separate 0–100 quality measure. Selecting a page is described as revealing its 25 strongest incoming and outgoing connections from Wikipedia Clickstream, with arrow thickness representing connection rank. Search and zoom support navigation across the map, which is labeled version 0.1.
