Exploratory Access to Wikipedia through Faceted Dynamic Taxonomies

Users currently access Wikipedia through two traditional paradigms, text search and hypertext navigation. We believe that user access can be significantly improved by supporting a systematic conceptual exploration of the knowledge base through dynamic taxonomies with a faceted taxonomy organization. This approach allows the easy manipulation of sets of documents and the systematic and intuitive exploration of complex knowledge bases.
