In this research paper, we analyzed the scientific research dealing with Wikidata from its creation in 2012 until late 2022, as revealed by Scopus. We identified 945 relevant scholarly publications, mostly at conferences. This landscape is characterized by small groups of experts and Wikidata contributors from the Global North. The same applies to the funders of Wikidata research, which are mainly governmental institutions from the Global North. Further networking and outreach should be done for better diversity and inclusion inside the Wikidata research community. The analysis also finds an emphasis on research around computer science perspectives on the development of Wikidata. Most outputs are mainly focused on developing methods for the creation, enrichment, reuse, and evaluation of open knowledge graphs, particularly Wikidata. However, there is also a significant but narrower interest in application-oriented research about the use of Wikidata in digital humanities, biology, and healthcare.
