WikipediaR: R-Based Wikipedia Client
Provides an interface to the Wikipedia web application programming
interface (API), using internet connexion.Three functions provide details for
a specific Wikipedia page : all links that are present, all pages that link
to, all the contributions (revisions for main pages, and discussions for talk
pages). Two functions provide details for a specific user : all contributions,
and general information (as name, gender, rights or groups). It provides
additional information compared to others packages, as WikipediR. It does not
need login. The multiplex network that can be constructed from the results
of the functions of WikipediaR can be modeled as Stochastic Block Model as in
Barbillon P., Donnet, S., Lazega E., and Bar-Hen A. : Stochastic Block Models
for Multiplex networks: an application to networks of researchers, ArXiv
1501.06444, http://arxiv.org/abs/1501.06444.
