Readability Calculations |
||||
Shown here are live calculations of readability scores comparing portions of articles in the simplified Wikipedia, a version of Wikipedia with articles that attempt to describe topics in plain English, versus the equivalent topic in the main English Wikipedia. Readability scores are computed using the Automated Readability Index where the calculation leverages counts of characters, words, sentences to compute an approximate grade level for the text. This intends to illustrate the direct impact readability can have while discussing the same subject. |
