wikiFactor of Scholarpedia[edit]

Dear JuanManuel, I have added the wikiFactor of Scholarpedia. It is fairly easy to calculate, being very similar to the Hirsch h index (with a factor of 1000); looking at the Popular pages of Scholarpedia one can see that (at the moment) the 51st mos popular page has had 52,700 views (which is >51,000), whilst the 52nd most popular page has <52,000 views, thus the wikiFactor of Scholarpedia (again, at the moment) is 51. The people at RationalWiki have made a rather good page explaining the wikiFactor. All the best -- Carl McBride (talk) 10:43, 10 February 2011 (CET)
