In this project, we'll be extracting academic citations from the history of Wikipedia and observing their growing usage over time.
To identify and disambiguate scholarly works, we'll look for structured identifiers in wiki content. See mwcites for specifics.[1]
- PubMed (pmid & pmcid)
- Digital object identifier (doi)
- International Standard Book Number (isbn)
- ArXiv Identifier (arxiv)
