Which Publications' Metadata Are in Which Bibliographic Databases? A System for Exploration

We present RefBee, an online system that retrieves the metadata of all publications for a given author from the various bibliographic databases and indicates which publications are missing in which database. Our system supports the following data sources:

• Wikidata,
• ORCID,
• Google Scholar,
• VIAF,
• DBLP,
• Dimensions,
• Microsoft Academic,
• Semantic Scholar, and
• DNB/GNB.

It is available online at http://km.aifb.kit.edu/services/refbee/.

Our system not only can serve as assistance tool for more than 4.7 million researchers of any discipline and publication's language, but also incentivizes the usage and population of Wikidata in the scholarly field.
