Statistics

Some statistics requested by Wikimedia Norway. — Jeblad 07:31, 4 February 2017 (UTC)

Bokmål

• 
  New editors
• 
  Users with more than 100 edits
• 
  Users with more than 100 edits
• 
  Mean number of edits in the database
• 
  Number of articles in the database
• 
  Number of redirects in the database
• 
  New articles each day
• 
  Mean number of edits per article

Important points

• Influx of new users are still negative
• Influx of users with more than five edits was stable but has now started to drop again
• Influx of users with more than hundred edits has been positive for some time, but is now decreasing again
• The period with extensive bot editing in the database has ceased
• There are an increase in the creation of new articles

It can be postulated that the bot edits creates a renewed interest in editing, which leads to recurring old users. The same effect will not show up in new users. — Jeblad 07:31, 4 February 2017 (UTC)

Nynorsk

• 
  New editors
• 
  Users with more than 100 edits
• 
  Users with more than 100 edits
• 
  Mean number of edits in the database
• 
  Number of articles in the database
• 
  Number of redirects in the database
• 
  New articles each day
• 
  Mean number of edits per article

Important points

• Influx of new editors drops off more slowly than at Bokmål
• Influx of users with more than five edits was stable but has now started to drop
• Influx of users with more than hundred edits has been positive for some time
• The period with extensive bot editing in the database has ceased (there are very little bot edits in this project)
• Except for some spikes there are nearly a stable production of new articles

Because this project is rather small the activity is dominated by a few stable contributors. The step-like behavior in >100 editors can be postulated to come from the move to use of iw-links from Wikidata. — Jeblad 11:44, 4 February 2017 (UTC)

Northern Sami

• 
  New editors
• 
  Users with more than 100 edits
• 
  Users with more than 100 edits
• 
  Mean number of edits in the database
• 
  Number of articles in the database
• 
  Number of redirects in the database
• 
  New articles each day (wrong graph)
• 
  Mean number of edits per article

Important points

• The project has mostly died out
• Mean number of edits shows clearly how the project previously had activity

Because this project is very small it is very sensitive for minor changes in the number of contributors, which has dwindled down to virtually zero. — Jeblad 13:39, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
