  Wikipedia is a rich and invaluable source of information. Its central place
on the Web makes it a particularly interesting object of study for scientists.
Researchers from different domains used various complex datasets related to
Wikipedia to study language, social behavior, knowledge organization, and
network theory. While being a scientific treasure, the large size of the
dataset hinders pre-processing and may be a challenging obstacle for potential
new studies. This issue is particularly acute in scientific domains where
researchers may not be technically and data processing savvy. On one hand, the
size of Wikipedia dumps is large. It makes the parsing and extraction of
relevant information cumbersome. On the other hand, the API is straightforward
to use but restricted to a relatively small number of requests. The middle
ground is at the mesoscopic scale when researchers need a subset of Wikipedia
ranging from thousands to hundreds of thousands of pages but there exists no
efficient solution at this scale.
  In this work, we propose an efficient data structure to make requests and
access subnetworks of Wikipedia pages and categories. We provide convenient
tools for accessing and filtering viewership statistics or "pagecounts" of
Wikipedia web pages. The dataset organization leverages principles of graph
databases that allows rapid and intuitive access to subgraphs of Wikipedia
articles and categories. The dataset and deployment guidelines are available on
the LTS2 website \url{https://lts2.epfl.ch/Datasets/Wikipedia/}.
