Abstract
This talk covers the (tentatively-named) MediaWiki data browser, a project sponsored by the Wikimedia Foundation through an Individual Engagement Grant. It is intended to be a framework for people to create apps (web-based and mobile) for browsing and searching through the structured data of MediaWiki-based wikis, including Wikipedia itself. These apps are intended to be easily created, without the need for any custom programming. The presentation includes a demo.
Detailed proposal
