They are collected using a SPARQL query and imported directly into Observable. There may be some problems in the data if there are several stages on the same day. If you meet a `Runtime error`, just try reloading the page (CTRL + R) and be patient. All stages from 1903 to today I use a cell plot to show all stages from

What is your probability of having an article in #frwiki ?
It depends on your birthplace.

Does your birthplace affect your probability to have your Wikipedia biography ? some evidence from people born in France.
How does your birthplace affect your probability of being on Wikipedia ? Having a Wikipedia page is a sign of notoriety. We know that the probability of being successful depends on your birthplace. So in this notebook I look at the probability of having a Wikipedia page depending on your birthplace. While browsing Wikipedia in French, I was surprised by the number of people born in Neuilly-sur-Seine (Hauts-de-Seine) or in Paris. So I wanted to know if there was an overrepresentation of people born in these

Visualizing the probability of having a Wikipedia page using a Dorling cartogram.
This is a complementary visualization to the Does your birthplace affect your probability to have your Wikipedia biography ? notebook. We use Bertin.js to draw a Dorling cartogram. Bubble size is proportional to the number of births in each department while the filling color of bubbles is proportional to the probability of having a Wikipedia page. We focus on people born in metropolitan France between 1975 and 1990. Unfortunately, data for the overseas departments are not available. Appendix
Do actresses become singers and singers become actors? Evidence from France using #Wikidata
https://observablehq.com/@pac02/actress-singers-and-actor-singers-do-actresses-become-sing
Actress-singers and actor-singers: do actresses become singers and singers become actors?
Jeanne Moreau and Anna Karina were first known as actresses and then became singers. We have also many examples of singers becoming actors. For instance Eddy Mitchell, Johnny Hallyday, Orelsan or Philippe Katerine were at first singers and then became actors. So my intuition is that the actress-singers tend to be actresses at first and then become singers whereas male singers tend to have opportunities to become actors later in their career. Now, I need to find data to test my assumption. I collect data fro

Celebrating the 2,000 featured articles milestone in Wikipedia in French
Wikipedia in French has now 2,000 featured articles ("Articles de qualité"). It's time to celebrate this milestone and to look at those 2,000 articles using Wikidata. I use the Wikipedia Categorymembers API through a SPARQL query to get all articles featured in category "Article de qualité". Let's have a look at the data !

Today's wikiviz is a short introduction to #Observablehq for #Wikidata users.

It shows how to go from a #SPARQL query to a dataviz in Observable.
An introduction to Observable for Wikidata users
Wikidata is an open and contributive knowledge base. Query.wikidata.org is a tool to query Wikidata using SPARQL queries. Query.wikidata.org is a great tool. However it has its own limitations. For instance, it is not possible to combine several queries to write a story with the data. It is limited to computations allowed by SPARQL and it is not possible to customize the visualisation. Observable is a platform allowing to write notebooks in Javascript. Like the Jupyter or Rmarkdown notebooks often used in d
Kingsley Uyi IdehenDo you have variants of your #Observablehq notebook demos where the #Wikidata ID is surfaced?
Why is this useful?
It enables one lookup additional information about what an ID denotes.
Here's an example from the not too distant past using #DBpedia ID.
