Show HN: Wikihack – Exploring Wikipedia Articles Popular on Hacker News

Inspired by similar curation projects like Karpathy’s Hackertube and Hackerbooks, a developer has launched Wikihack, a dedicated platform designed to aggregate and showcase Wikipedia articles mentioned on Hacker News. The creator scraped all references to Wikipedia across the Hacker News platform, ranking them to create a continuous, scrollable feed that makes digesting and interacting with the content more accessible. Users can track where specific articles were submitted and view relevant discussions in the comments section. The interface features a top section highlighting the most frequently linked articles, a trending ‘rising’ feed focused on the past twelve months, and a ‘random’ discovery tool slightly weighted toward popular links, mimicking Wikipedia’s own navigation style. Entirely front-end based, the project aims to offer a streamlined way to explore community-driven knowledge, with potential future features depending on user reception and engagement.
