Data for: Wikipedia as a gateway to biomedical research

Wikipedia has been described as a gateway to knowledge. However, the extent to which this gateway ends at Wikipedia or continues via supporting citations is unknown. This dataset was used to establish benchmarks for the relative distribution and referral (click) rate of citations, as indicated by presence of a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), from Wikipedia with a focus on medical citations. This data set includes for each day in August 2016 a listing of all DOI present in the English language version of Wikipedia and whether or not the DOI are biomedical in nature. Source Code for these data are available at: Ryan Steinberg. (2017, July 9). Lane-Library/wiki-extract: initial Zenodo/DOI release. Zenodo. http://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.824813 This dataset also includes a listing from Crossref of URL decoded DOIs that were referred from Wikipedia in August 2016 (Wikipedia_referred_DOI). Source code for these data sets is available at: Joe Wass. (2017, July 4). CrossRef/logppj: Initial DOI registered release. Zenodo. http://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.82263
