Ultimately, the only thing we know about an article's creator is what that
creator has stated publicly. So for a given country, you *could* do
something for "created by self-described users from that country" by using,
eg,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikipedians_in_Singapore

and running the names through http://tools.wmflabs.org/xtools/pages/

It'll take some time and get you a list of pages, but it'll have some big
problems:

* it'll miss out all the users from Singapore who haven't publicised where
they're from
* it'll include articles they wrote when outside of Singapore
* it'll include articles by people who say they're in Singapore but aren't
really

So perhaps not a very useful list, all told...
