Is it possible to get one tabulation for all the hits/days for an article? I am trying to understand what the long term pattern of interest is for articles I wrote.

Thank You

Dear Mr. Henrik,

Thank you for your development. I have found it very useful. I know we editors are not suppose to have egos, but it is nice to know from time to time that the world finds the article we research and help others with are for some purpose.

Again, thanks.

Data for wikistats before 2010/04/01?

Hi, I've seen Wikistats at http://stats.grok.se/ . Great work! I was wondering if it is possible to get data of pageviews before 2010/04/01. Thanks! --phauly (talk) 08:03, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The page view data begins in December 2007. Emw (talk) 11:09, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, thanks for your answer! Sorry, I was not very precise in my question. I would like to get the raw data about pageviews. I've read that your visualization takes data from http://dammit.lt/wikistats/ but when I look into the archived raw data, I see that the oldest available dump is of April 2010, see http://dammit.lt/wikistats/archive/2010/04/ So I'm wondering if you make a local copy of the data released earlier and if it would be ok for you to share them. Thanks! phauly (talk) 11:15, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Date format in Page view statistics

Request to specify the date format in bracket 201009(yr-month) and so on. For a new user this is actually confusing. Then different formats are followed in different countries hence its better to specify. AkkiDa 03:57, 4 September 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Akshayapanigrahi (talk • contribs)

Hi there,

I am making a small research based on the "Wikipedia article traffic statistics".

I wonder if you can send me some information about this system and how its works. Any detail will contribute.

Please send it to my Email at:

Can you delegate some of the page-stats upkeep work?

Hi Henrik, love the facility, and its continuous availability is becoming a must for WP. If it's a bore to add each month to the facility at the start of the month, I wonder whether it's possible to delegate this task. Thanks. Tony (talk) 06:10, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Tony. I think that task is done automatically, although it is somewhat buggy. Emw (talk) 12:18, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Stats for Google missing Sept 9, stats for Yahoo missing Sept 9 & 10 Ottawahitech (talk) 15:41, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
stats are now working in most areas I have checked today. They resumed a couple of days ago, leaving a blank only in dates between Sept 8/10-Sept 15/16 . Thanks to whoever fixed them. Ottawahitech (talk) 17:58, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I spoke prematurely - stats are broken again, at least at Yahoo Groups. Ottawahitech (talk) 21:08, 18 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The stats seem to come on and off on different articles at different times - why is it? Ottawahitech (talk) 17:52, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think the intermittent issues with page view data affect all pages. Have you seen an example of where this is not the case? Emw (talk) 11:53, 25 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why are Wikipedia's page view statistics not maintained by Wikipedia staff?

Henrik has been providing outstanding service in this area as a volunteer. However, this function is way too important for this organization to rely on one single individual.

Any thoughts? Ottawahitech (talk) 15:51, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It seems like WMF staff are working to address this; see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Analytics_upgrade and http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/OWA_deployment. According to the second link, a new analytics tool could be launched in early October.
Even if the staff didn't implement that project, however, a page view statistics tool is not dependent on Henrik. The underlying data is available from the Internet Archive, beginning at http://www.archive.org/details/wikipedia_visitor_stats_200712, and also at http://dammit.lt/wikistats/. Emw (talk) 17:11, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I agree : this function is way too important for this organization to rely on one single individual ! Best regards !

Stats.grok.se– are all hits on a redirect counted?

Hi Henrik. I know the answer to this may depend on raw logs which you don't write, only process, but have you any idea if a hit on a redirect page that only results in a redirect (ie. not resulting in a rendering of the redirect page itself) actually produces a hit count? Many thanks, Trev M  ~  10:57, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

When one navigates to a URL that redirects to another page, that hit is listed for the redirect page. So if Foo was a redirect (and it is), then any hits on that page will be listed as for that page, not the target. Killiondude (talk) 17:12, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
As suspected: thanks very much for confirmation. Trev M  ~  17:21, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That doesn't seem clear to me. What I observe is that now traffic through a redirect counts as a view of the redirect and as a view of the target; views of the redirect itself do not count as a view of the target. 69.3.72.249 (talk) 01:13, 15 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I think that's correct, 69.3.72.249. Viewing the redirect itself (achievable through a URL like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo?redirect=no) registers as a view of that page and that page only. However, such hits are so infrequent as to be negligible. The vast majority of hits to redirects occur without those special parameters -- through a URL like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo, i.e. Foo -- and register as views on both the redirect and the destination page.

Web traffic (yet again)

Hey Henrik,

Thanks for creating and designing the system to track wikipedia traffic numbers. I was looking through the traffic numbers for certain topics on the English language Wikipedia and noticed that for a few months in 2008 the user traffic to that page was 0. It does not seem to make sense to me that the page view for those months in 2008 would be 0. Is that possible or could it be a glitch in the tracking system?

Would appreciate it if you could get back to me.

Wikipedia article traffic statistics

Beloved Henrik,
(seriously ;), as your program is great help in evaluating possible relevance of articles), I just now notice that the languages to be chosen by dropdown menue do not appear by alphabetical order [I just now was looking for Polish].

I think it might possibly not be too much of an effort to have preset English as-is, but to list everything else of the dropdown by alphabetical order. Thanks, Wolfgang, [w.] 15:20, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The drop-down menu is roughly ordered by number of articles in the given language's version of Wikpedia. See http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wikipedias#All_Wikipedias_ordered_by_number_of_articles. Whether it's better to sort that way or alphabetically is an interesting design question: the former should be more convenient for most people, but the latter should leave most people not confused. Emw (talk) 16:16, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I_STILL_DO think that alphabetical order would be preferable in such dropdown, believing that
(1) not-very-very-many people use this feature,
...but, mainly,
(2) those who ever DO would hardly be aware of ANY other 'ratings' to be regarded.
-- How should they ever know, unless being statisticians???
But, do not mind, please. Best, [w.] 17:29, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
