From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I noticed how many similar terms exist around the field of semantic analysis with computational aspects to it.

More than a dozen pages affected.


Question: is there any help from automatic tools showing me link networks of things I'm interested in?

to do

What pages are involved? A first attempt at a summary

[edit]

Give them rating (0 bad to 3 good, except for languages): [__ <= LENGTH x , SPECIFIC y, DISCUSSION z, USAGE a, LANG d]

  • LENGTH: is it just two sentences or a fully fledged article?
  • SPECIFIC: is it very vague and name-dropping? or to the point clearly delinieating itself from related terms?
  • DISCUSSION: is there an active talk page?
  • USAGE: how much in use? (contributions, age. how often accessed?)
  • LANG: how many languages have equivalences?

List of pages -> Turns out, maybe a table would help, but not sure. Can rearrange item order more clearly as a list?
