The Information Technologies drive an unprecedented growth of information, which raises the problem of the organization of it. As it is digital information, it is possible to approach her organization through automated procedures. On the other hand, Network Analysis Techniques are a powerful tool that allows us to model different phenomena and then apply automatic techniques. In this paper we describe the application of these Network Analysis Techniques to model and process an important number of documents, such as the one constituted by Wikipedia articles. The subsequent application of community detection algorithms allows grouping the articles based on their hyperlinks and their thematic affinity. This work focuses, after having applied these techniques, on the geographical relationship of the articles, on their network communities and the connections between them.
