Wikipedia Research Paper
My name is Dale Carty II and I am a cadet at the United States Coast Guard Academy. I am writing a research paper on the mechanics of Wikipedia. I saw your "Wikipedia article traffic statistics" engine which rose a few questions. How are you able to view the amount of visitors to a specific page? Is it possible to find or locate who made corrections to a Wikipedia page? Are there any consequences that occur when people place incorrect information online? Thank you in advance for your timely response.

- The source data that Henrik uses is actually posted by domas, a tech guy for Wikimedia. (You might also be interested in the FAQ for Henrik's tool). Too bad our page view article isn't very explanatory, but it does cover the very basics. To respond to your second question, you can view the "history" tab on any page to see who has made what edits. See also Help:History. As far as people posting incorrect information, on Wikipedia we can block users who continue to post incorrect data after being warned not to.

Hey, thanks for the page view statistics. Very helpful in knowing if people are reading selected wiki pages. Cheers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ultimatedit (talk • contribs) 01:56, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
Article statistics (after April 7)
Please read the responses (and the suggested FAQ), to avoid posting redundant questions/comments.
Thanks! Kiefer.Wolfowitz (Discussion) 09:37, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
User Based Statistics
Henrik, I was thinking page stats by user would be interesting. For example, aggregated page stats for articles created by a user or change in page stats based on the contributions of a user. Please consider. Thank you! Jasonbook99 (talk) 14:22, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
Stats failure?
Hi Henrik. Do I get it right that there's been a failure of the Stats tool on April 8? Even the Main page shows zero hits for that day. Is there a way to retrieve the hits count for April 8 for a particular article like Iman al-Obeidi, for instance? Regards, Cinosaur (talk) 12:37, 9 April 2011 (UTC)
Main Page and all article traffic statistics
Dear Henrik, Some problem with the Article traffic statistics of Anna Hazare of April 8, 2011. Kindly have a look. Thanks.-- . Shlok talk . 13:53, 9 April 2011 (UTC)
- All stats grok statistics, I think. No stats for the Main Page on April 8, or any other page I see. Maile66 (talk) 14:25, 9 April 2011 (UTC)
Occassional stat failures are common, but not two in a row
Stats are still showing zero, this being the second day in a row. I usually don't even look at stats anymore but I just made a good article and I was watching it's traffic trends for the first week. Daniel Christensen (talk) 03:25, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
Third day in a row, never seen that, can I assume that the stat thing, which has always said is a beta service and may dissappear at anytime, has done just that? Interesting to see how many people count on it, though. Daniel Christensen (talk) 04:13, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
- It was down for several days last month (the posts about it are above on this page). It happens occasionally and then the problem gets fixed. Henrik just doesn't reply here every time someone reports a problem, but he reads the page so I'm sure he's aware of the problems. Just give it a few days, I'm sure it will be back up again. --- Crakkerjakk (talk) 05:07, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
- Since its inception what's been the longest consecutive downtime? Because it's now on day four. When the stats fail, does it stop counting in the middle of a day so the days surrounding the failure are less than the real views? Or is it just all or none? Daniel Christensen (talk) 01:10, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
- Appears that the site where the raw data used to be stored -->http://dammit.lt/wikistats/archive/2011/04/ has been redirected to http://dom.as/. If this was where the toolserver account was pulling the data from, then its not anymore. Calmer Waters 01:42, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
- The raw data is there through. First, you can go to http://dammit.lt/wikistats/ where the raw data is stored. There are 24 files for each day in 1 hour intervals. You can then manually extract the stats for an article, download the files, uncompress them, then using a text editor, find the article in each file. There are two numbers after each article name, the first is the number of page views for that article in that hour. Warning through. The download can take a considerable amount of time.

A request
Hallo Henrick. Please, may you tell me if the Wikipedia article traffic statistics is working? Thank you very much. --Antonella (talk) 22:37, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
What hapened to the statistics?
It is now all 0 0 0 everyday from 900 per day! Can you find the problem and fix it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Georgy90 (talk • contribs) 15:34, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

page statistics
Hi, I liked the page statistics that you were evidently responsible for providing. Any particular reason that you decided to stop providing them? Thanks for you help, 173.70.113.42 (talk) 23:11, 12 April 2011 (UTC) Ooops. Forgot I wasn't logged in...again. Smm201`0 (talk) 23:13, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
The Wikipedia article traffic statistics does not appear to be working as the number of hits on the date of the main page DYK appearance of the above article does not show-up. Can you kindly tell me how to get this information? Thanks.--Nvvchar. 09:19, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
Problem with article statistics page
There seems to be a problem with the article statistics page (http://stats.grok.se/). For the last 4-5 days, every article's page view number has been "0", even for heavily visited articles like Barack Obama. I find it hard to believe that zero people visited the Barack Obama article in the last 5 days. (I read the pageview FAQ, but didn't find any information about why there would be 0 hits). Agogperson (talk) 12:12, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
- Hello I am curious why the counts for Leopold Seyffert page are zero for several days. Just curious thanks Robert Seyffert (talk) 13:29, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
Page View Statistics
The page view statistics on the article Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast dropped to "0" on April 8 to current and appears to lost link with ability to track data. I am tracking this and have for the past several years and now the data stream appears to be broken.... How does that get restored?
Thanks..

Please why does not work my statistic from April 10, 2011 --Dgolitsis (talk) 20:11, 13 April 2011 (UTC)]]
Hello, I appreciate very much your statistic tool, but on french Wikipedia.fr also, the "Wikipedia article traffic statistics" indicate "0" fot all pages, since 1 week now. -Abaca 21:42, 13 April 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by ABACA (talk • contribs)
France
Hello ! I appreciate too. But why on french Wikipedia.fr the "Wikipedia article traffic statistics" indicate "0" fot all pages ? ( 8 days without traffic statistics [1]).77.202.60.69. Any way, think you 4 ur work ! (talk) 22:02, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
- Here is the beginning of the answer, which I got in my pdd :
Traffic stats
All the monthly page views since 2011 aren't appearing. 2010 2011. Until Henrik fixes this I suspect the page ranks will continue to stay the same. Must be some kind of Y2K error. Marcus Qwertyus 01:49, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
So... let us just be a bit more patient ;-)
--Bibliorock (talk) 00:56, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
Out of order !
The stats are really out of order...But why ? Please, give us some explanations. Thanks.
Omygod,no stats
My favorite Wiki feature are your stats....Can you fix the problem? Smallchief (talk) 10:45, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia article traffic statistics
Good afternoon. Page poseshayut many people, but in the statistics for several days, wrote that the page no one looks. [2] Thanks in advance. Sincerely, 77.52.52.192 (talk) 13:20, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
I tried it again today and it worked this time. Contains Mild Peril (talk) 02:46, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
Red links are counted
I think the page view statistics include attempts to view red links. I created a new article (Xenon dioxide) and made 3 edits, and then I looked at the page view statistics and was surprised to find that "this page" (which I created today) was viewed 12 times in the last 30 days, some views 3 weeks ago. The only explanation I can find is that these views were attempts to view the (previously red) link to Xenon dioxide from the dab page at Xenon oxide. Dirac66 (talk) 00:12, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Förfrågan
Halloj! Mitt namn är Martin Wilson. Jag håller för närvarande på att författa en licentiatuppsats i ämnet historia. Licentiatuppsats är relativt ovanliga, de kan liknas vid en halv doktorsavhandling. Ämnet för min uppsats är Wikipedias texter och gymnasieelevers möte med dessa texter. Jag är inte primärt intresserad av källkritik, utan istället fokuseras min studie på vad IKT-revolutionen kan tänkas innebära; hur människors sätt att tänka förändras.
Min studie är i huvudsak kvalitativ, men jag funderar på att ta med även kvantitativa slutsatser. I det sammanhanget är jag intresserad av den statistik som du tagit fram. Är det möjligt för mig att ställa några frågor om materialet? Jag syftar bland annat på den här listan: http://stats.grok.se/en/201105/
Jag är (som synes) inte aktiv på Wikipedia. Om möjligt ser jag helst att vi kommunicerar via e-post, jag har: Martin.Wilson@hist.lu.se

traffic stats tool is great!
the traffic stats tool is really great, it is a good way to see the changing importance of this or that over time. Better than Google Trends, I think, because it has a much larger dynamic range -- e.g., can detect very low levels of interest. It is also less sensitive to multiple meanings of one term (e.g., two different people with the same name) than Google Trends. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.34.52.28 (talk) 01:07, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
