Why we built a self-writing Wikipedia

Primer builds Quicksilver, a system that drafts first Wikipedia pages for missing scientists by linking names across news, Wikipedia and Wikidata and using structured claims extracted from articles. It trains on a corpus of 30,000 profiles provided with help from the Allen Institute, learns to resolve name ambiguity, generates human-readable summaries and an event stream of major developments, and publishes example output for a hundred scientists that editors can copy, verify and expand.
