User:Eugene van der Pijll/random pages
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Procedure: take 20 random pages from the on-line Encyclopedia Britannica; find the corresponding Wikipedia article.
Normal random pages tests emphasize the long tail of minor articles and stubs, and then often conclude that Wikipedia is doing badly. However, these articles are still better than what you would find in paper encyclopedias, simply because those don't have articles on those subjects at all.
My test looks at the articles that also exist in EB. This makes a level playing field.
