Notably in STEM, not so interested in literature of course:
Here's a SPARQL sketch for Wikidata that can be run at query.wikidata.org/. It gathers all the relevant data, but TODO we don't know how to do the proper query yet:
# List of living Nobel Laureates sorted by date of birth
SELECT DISTINCT ?recipient ?recipientLabel $birthDate ?awardLabel ?nobelDate ?educatedAtLabel ?academicDegree ?academicDegreeLabel ?doctorateDate
WHERE {
?recipient wdt:P31 wd:Q5 ; # recepient is human (Peace prize can go to organizations)
wdt:P569 ?birthDate ;
p:P166 ?awardStat . # recepient was awarded something
?awardStat ps:P166 ?award .
?award wdt:P279* wd:Q7191 . # received any subclass of nobel prize (physics, chemistry, etc.)
?awardStat pq:P585 ?nobelDate .
?recipient p:P69 ?recipientEducatedAt .
?recipientEducatedAt ps:P69 ?educatedAt .
?recipientEducatedAt pq:P512 ?academicDegree .
?academicDegree wdt:P279* wd:Q849697 .
OPTIONAL{ ?recipientEducatedAt pq:P582 ?doctorateDate . }
SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "en" . }
}
ORDER BY ASC(?birthDate) ASC(?nobelDate) ASC(?awardLabel)Fun fact, in 2024 Ciro Santilli corrected John's place of birth on hist Nobel Prize page: www.nobelprize.org/prizes/medicine/2002/sulston/facts/, details: Getting a list of all currencies from Wikidata with SPARQL.

. Source. The cool think about Ramanujan is how British mathematicians heard about him and then just went crazy that someone they had never heard of before had come up with so many novel results. It is as if God had come down from the clouds and handed them those results. Without proof. But in that field of research, the statements are not easy to come up with, so much so that G. H. Hardy commented that:
they must be true, because, if they were not true, no one would have the imagination to invent them
They suffer extremely from Section "To talk about something without giving the real name to not scare off the audience". But they also have merits.

Mathematics requires a plugin and a full LaTeX install: zim-wiki.org/manual/Plugins/Equation_Editor.html They have a bunch of plugins: zim-wiki.org/manual/Plugins.html
Can only link to toplevel of each source, not subheaders? And subpages get forced scope. github.com/zim-desktop-wiki/zim-desktop-wiki
Publishing to static HTML can be done with:The output does not contain any table of contents? There is a plugin however: zim-wiki.org/manual/Plugins/Table_Of_Contents.html

neurotree.org/neurotree/faq.php explains that you have to contact an admin to download the database, kind of sad:
That page also explains how they disambiguate authors with the same name:
How do you identify researchers' publications?Publications data are drawn from two databases: Medline and Scopus. Because of the large number of researchers with the same name, a disambiguation algorithm is required to accurately link researchers to papers they have authored. We match authors to papers using a two-step process. First, we identify candidate publications based on a simple string match between researcher name and the author list. Second, we look for overlap between co-authors and other individuals in the researcher's mentor network (trainees, mentors, collaborators, etc), and label publications with overlap as high-probability matches. Thus a complete family tree is likely to produce more accurate publication matches.
There are unlisted articles, also show them or only show them.
