Geographic Distribution of Wikipedia List Article Image Aspect Ratio Clusters
This page explores the geographical distribution of image aspect ratio clusters within Wikipedia's 'List of...' articles. We've analysed the shapes of images found in these lists and grouped them into distinct categories, such as square, wide, or tall.
By understanding the prevalence of each aspect ratio cluster and its connection to the geographical focus of the list articles, we can uncover potential insights. This could highlight regional aesthetic leanings or the common visual documentation styles prevalent in different parts of the world. These patterns are not typically tracked, offering a new perspective on how visual information is presented on Wikipedia.
The data presented here is derived from an analysis of publicly available Wikipedia list articles. We examine the percentage of images that fall into each identified aspect ratio cluster and then map this distribution across the geographical regions that the list articles primarily represent.
