Statistics

Statistics in other languages:

Metrics redirects here. For Wikimedia's monthly showcase meeting, see Wikimedia monthly activities meetings.

There are sources for statistics available about various Wikimedia projects. Please link to any you know of from this page. These statistics are limited to quantitative data; qualitative (non-numerical) data are excluded.

Groups within the Wikimedia movement collect many different statistical indicators for the purpose of evaluating the movement's work. These indicators live in many different dashboards and are cultivated by many different people. For information about raw data generated by Wikimedia projects, see Research:Data.

General-purpose dashboards[edit]

Wikistats (language-specific tables and charts, with comparisons and summaries, in many languages)
- For documentation, see mw:Analytics/Wikistats.
- Wikistats 2 is actively being developed as a replacement
Wikimedia Report Card monthly statistics
Vital Signs dashboard based on "dashiki" (see early documentation)
Browser statistics
Multilingual projects
- Statistics by Magnus for Wikidata and wikidata:Category:Wikidata statistics
- Development statistics for MediaWiki
Additionally, WMF and others maintain a number of other ad hoc scattered statistics using Limn or other similar software, you have to hunt them around (try e.g. google:limn+site:wmflabs.org).
- Raw data powering those graphs is usually updated daily and visible at https://datasets.wikimedia.org/ ([1])
- Some links by topic: Research:Data/Dashboards
- https://analytics.wikimedia.org/

Traffic reporting[edit]

Main article: Traffic reporting

As of early 2016, the Pageviews Analysis tool is the most basic tool available for giving pageview reports on single Wikipedia articles to typical Wikimedia community members. If given the title of a Wikipedia article and a date range, this tool reports how many pageviews that article got in that range.
