This list is focused on using the WIScker Wikipedia scraper to analyze the historical makeup of a Wikipedia article in different ways. It includes a number of visualizations that can be used with WIScker, and is an interesting and accessible first experience in text analysis. Additionally, by using the Wiki Map Project, users can map the connections between various articles linked to and by their original article of study.
This list contains a number of tools that focus on exploring and analyzing social media through different approaches. If focuses on several networks, though twitter is the most common focus. This is a good introduction to a wide variety of tools that vary both in difficulty and type of analysis.
This list compiles a suite of tools that make up Kynan Ly's Text Analysis for Twitter Research (TATR) Library. Recipes to these notebooks can be found on methodi.ca
This list is about the basic need of many researchers to organise, manage, publish and eventually archive information collected in the course of their research. Simple tools dealing with one type of information are rarely adequate because of the rich connections within Humanities data.
A number of open-source, web-based tools now available allow you to model, collect, manage and publish data characterised by heterogeneous entities which are linked together through relationships. These can include documents, images, events, people, places, organisations, structures, portable objects, and many other entities which form rich networks of relationships.
While any sort of complex data modelling and data management/publishing can be achieved - laboriously and at huge expense - by programming in conventional relational (and other) database tools, newer web-based approaches can provide nearly ready-made open-source solutions to a wide range of basic research data management needs. However many researchers are unaware of what is available. This list aims to highlight suitable tools for consideration.
