Wikipedia History Flow tool now in GitHub

Inspired by a comment on my post Visualising edit history of a Wikipedia page, the code I use to make history flow diagrams like the one below is now in GitHub at https://github.com/rdmpage/wikihistoryflow.



There is also a live version at http://iphylo.org/~rpage/wikihistoryflow. If you enter the name of a Wikipedia page the tool will display the edit history with columns representing page versions and individual contributors (people and bots) distinguished by different colours.

This tool will fall over for pages with a lengthy history of edits, and requires a web browser that can support SVG, but it's a fun visualisation, and may inspire someone to do this properly.

Nature iPhone app clone in GitHub

One thing I'm increasingly conscious of is that I've a lot of demos and toy projects hanging around and the code for most of these isn't readily available. So, I plan to clean these up and put them in GitHub so others can explore the code, and reuse it if they see fit.

First up is the code to create a HTML+Javascript clone of Nature's iPhone app, as described in an earlier post.



There's a live version of the clone here here. and the code is now available from GitHub at https://github.com/rdmpage/natureiphone.
