vivino — Vivino wine social network users (2017)

Description

A network of users of Vivino, an online social network and marketplace for wine enthusiasts, where users rate and review wines and follow each other, from Kotonya et al. The data were collected by crawling the Vivino website from November 2016 to March 2017, targeting the 10,000 most active users (according to Vivino's per-country user ranking) of each of the 15 countries with the highest wine consumption (Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Romania, Russia, South Africa, Spain, United Kingdom and United States). The distributed data contain the profiles of 129,351 users, with anonymized user identifiers. Each profile lists between 1 and 20 other users in a field named "top_in_network", which defines the edges of the network: a directed edge goes from a profiled user to each user listed in this field. The meaning of this field is not documented in the source data or the paper; ICON describes it as the social connections of the user to other users active in the 365 days prior to the crawl. The edges are not reciprocated, and most listed users (410,652) do not have a profile in the data; these are included as nodes without metadata.

The network has the following properties:

Nodes: user_id, the anonymized identifier of the user; has_profile, whether the profile of the user is included in the data (all remaining properties are empty or zero otherwise); country, the country of the user; followers and following, the number of followers of the user and of users followed by the user; ratings, the total number of wine ratings by the user; taste_styles, taste_regions, taste_ratings and taste_counts, the taste profile of the user, i.e. the list of regional wine styles rated by the user (e.g. "/wine-styles/spanish-grenache"), with their wine regions, the average rating given by the user (from 1 to 5) and the number of ratings, in the order given by Vivino.
