Researchers in Wikipedia

The free encyclopedia ‘Wikipedia’ is a popular resource among the users of different ages and social statuses, commonly used for information search. Wikipedia contains numerous pages that could be of interest to researchers, such as those about famous scientists, scientific events, academic journals, and more. These pages can be enriched by adding links to the researches of scientists who developed those ideas and studied those concepts.
