Hey All,

There is a proposal for a new Wikimedia Foundation Sister Project (WikiSandy) posted 11 may 2017 open proposals https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposals_for_new_projects. If you could please weigh in on the proposed project. Thanks in advance for comments.

The experimental search / research engine can be found at www.wikisandy.org http://www.wikisandy.org/SandyUI.aspx

In a nutshell:

What’s unique about WikiSandy? ·WikiSandy is an en.wikipedia.org https://en.wikipedia.org/ specific experimental search engine that indexes Wikipedia data semantically, based on sentence structure; subject, subject complement, or direct object, etc. versus just key words.

·It typically returns full sentences for the user to review.

·*take Me there (tMt)* links to sentences in the actual source articles allowing the user to jump directly to that sentence no matter where it is in the article!

· WikiSandy answers follow-up questions maintaining context. This means you can search for Abraham Lincoln, get results, and then ask, “*What did he do?*”, and get relevant results.

·Click *aLike *to view other documents with the same sentence discovered by WikiSandy. This shows you other articles on the same topic.

·*Tell Me Something* will bring you to random query results.

·*Example Questions *will give you some demo queries*.* * * View the *User Guide *for more details
