Wikipedia and Data Overview

Compared to Twitter, Wikipedia has a character of permanancy - Twitter is for conversation and expression; Wikipedia is for conclusion and preservation. While there are debates among the Wikipedia community about how to best present facts about one topic or one person, or even what constitutes facts, there is only one version presented to the public. Compared to the tens of thousands of Tweets, a Wikipedia edit also guarantees high visibility - it is the first stop for the majority of the people if they want to learn about a subject. Therefore to understand the lasting effect of #MeToo, it is important to know how the public is solidifying it on an online public forum like Wikipedia.
