Wikipedia:List of 2007 Macropædia articles

The following list comprises the 699 Macropædia articles of the 2007 Encyclopædia Britannica, the flagship articles upon which Britannica's reputation rests. If Wikipedia could produce articles on these topics of comparable or better quality than those of the EB, there could be no doubt about Wikipedia's scope and stature as an encyclopedia. Reaching this goal is not impossible; on the contrary, it may be inevitable, with enough time and well-meaning editors.

The few red links are those articles for which there is no equivalent Wikipedia article. The articles are being assessed using the ranking described in Wikipedia:Content assessment, in the following order:

  • 1 Featured article: One of Wikipedia's best articles.
  • 2 A-class: Essentially complete; a few omissions may be detected by a subject expert.
  • 3 Good article Good article: Well-written, nearly complete coverage of pertinent topics.
  • 4 B-class: Useful for most readers, but needs expanded coverage.
  • 5 C-class: The article is substantial, but is still missing important content or contains a lot of irrelevant material.
  • 6 Start class: Provides a significant amount of information, but serious gaps remain to be filled.
  • 7 Stub class: A placeholder for future work, usually a few paragraphs introducing the topic and/or a few external links.
  • 8 NIL: No directly corresponding Wikipedia article.

Please place the symbol before the article title, and please note that A-class articles are superior to Good articles. It would be a worthy goal to bring all of the articles below to the highest ranking, Featured Article status. Please feel free to add comments under each article about its status!

Interestingly, the Britannica itself seems to suffer from systemic bias, judging from the distribution of topics it chooses for Macropedia articles. The list is heavily weighted toward topics in the English-speaking world (The United Kingdom, the United States, and the British Commonwealth) and Western Europe, and heavily weighted against Asia and the Global South. Presumably, this bias reflects the interests and tastes of the principal readership to which the EB is marketed. For example, the whole of Buddhism and most other religions is covered in a single Macropedia article; by contrast, Christianity has fourteen (Biblical literature, Jesus, Christianity, the Apostle Paul, Roman Catholicism, Protestantism, Eastern Orthodoxy, Calvin and Calvinism, Augustine, Thomas Aquinas and Thomism, Joan of Arc, Crusades, Luther and Theology), nearly half of all the Macropedia religion articles. The Macropedia also tends to describe only the Western branch of a field, e.g., History of Western architecture, History of Western literature, History of Western mathematics, History of Western music, History of Western painting, History of Western philosophy, History of Western political philosophy, History of Western sculpture, History of Western theatre, Evolution of modern Western legal systems, Western philosophical schools and doctrines, and Western dance. More generally, the Macropedia seems unusually fond of biographies, geography, Western philosophies, law, mathematics, physiology, taxonomy and, perhaps not surprisingly, information science.

Surprisingly, the 2007 Macropedia article for "Encyclopedias and Dictionaries" does not mention Wikipedia. Nor is Wikipedia described in the 2007 Micropedia; volume 12 (p. 653) proceeds directly from Wihtred, King of Kent to the German philologist Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff. Wikipedia is not even found in the Index of the 2007 Encyclopedia Britannica (v.32, p. 1138), which proceeds directly from the Incan leader Wika-K'iraw (Vicaquirao) to the Swedish author Carl Pontus Wikner. The print version of the 2007 Encyclopedia Britannica does not mention Wikipedia even once. Presumably, the most likely explanation for this omission is that the EB coverage of encyclopedias has not been updated recently; consistent with this hypothesis, the most recent reference found in the encyclopedia section of the Macropedia article is dated 1995, 12 years before 2007. It would be interesting to review the distribution of reference dates for the other Macropedia articles as well. Another interesting point is that most of the Micropedia articles have no references; therefore, if a topic is not found below, it is likely to be unreferenced in the Encyclopædia Britannica.

The page numbers below may be slightly off, since the EB introduces additional pages occasionally by repeating a page number and adding a capital letter, e.g., page "320H". The articles below with "1" page are most likely incorrect.

The assessments of the Wikipedia articles (column 1) need to be checked for articles in volume 16 and above, if they are a "B".

I'm keeping the duplicate listing for now in order to check the sortable table. Once it's verified, I'll delete it; please be patient!

Organized by Wikipedia category

edit

This section is designed to gauge the relative weighting of topics in a benchmark encyclopedia, for comparison with the coverage of topics in Wikipedia. Some articles have been counted in two categories — especially the biographies — but this will not skew the qualitative results.

Wikipedians are encouraged to carry out an analogous experiment on the Micropedia. Pick a random page — say, page 347 — of each volume of the Micropedia, and categorize all the articles on those pages. Let's see what kind of distribution of topics we get! The Micropedia may not have the same distribution as the Macropedia.
