Hi Nettrom, A few resources from English Wikipedia regarding article importance as ranked by humans:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Vital_articles https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Version_1.0_Editorial_Team/Release_Version_Criteria#Priority_of_topic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_assessment#Statistics I infer from the ENWP Wikicup's scoring protocol that for purposes of the competition, an article's "importance" is loosely inferred from the number of language editions of Wikipedia in which the article appears: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring#Bonus_points.
