    It's more like 'visualize individual Wikipedia articles'. Unfortunately it doesn't generate any kind of embedding for the contexts articles are embedded in or cross-linked with, although that information is available from the Wikipedia API. Other than the grand view, it's not very readable.

    Might be good for use in a kiosk environment. On a personal device it's not a fun reading experience.

    The tool developed wiki2map is Superus. I like Superus. It think Superus can be described as "canvas to everything"
