Bug when accessing multiple pages in dates one of them didn't exist
[edit]I hit a bug while accidentally attempting to use the tool for articles that were not created yet in the period defined in the "Dates" field. In particular, I tried to access the stats for article Rui Rocha throughout 2021, while the page was only created in 2022.
If I enter a single page, I get an error saying "Rui Rocha: Error querying Pageviews API - Not Found". This is not really user-friendly (an error like "Page Rui Rocha did not exist in the specified period" would be better), but it's at least minimally informative and not too scary.
But if I enter multiple pages including the one that did not exist in the specified period, I get the message "Fatal error: TypeError: i is undefined" along with a red pop-up saying "Fatal error: Please refresh the page to try again or report this issue".
IMO both issues should be handled more gracefully, but the second one in particular appears to be missing a guard in the code. --Waldyrious (talk) 19:32, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- I will get this fixed. Thanks for reporting and providing detailed steps to reproduce the issue! :) MusikAnimal (WMF) (talk) 16:20, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
- Restoring this thread which is being archived due to age, but hasn't (AFAICT) been resolved yet. --Waldyrious (talk) 14:43, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- Apologies. I will tend to this when time allows. MusikAnimal (WMF) (talk) 19:32, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
Mediaviews
[edit]Hey, in the mediaviews the project "en.wikipedia.org" is preselected. That does not make sense. Can you please change the preselection there to "commons.wikimedia.org"? WikiPate (talk) 15:08, 16 April 2025 (UTC)
- It uses whatever project you were querying against in the other tool. If you go to Mediaviews directly, it defaults to Commons. But I still agree, we should remove the auto-add-project for links pointing to Mediaviews. MusikAnimal (WMF) (talk) 23:12, 17 April 2025 (UTC)
No encuentro la página
[edit]Quiero saber las visitas del artículo de "Mario Secco" y no me aparecen 186.141.200.69 12:33, 23 April 2025 (UTC)

Missing data for some language versions
[edit]I was using "Langviews" to make a list of films which had at least 10 language versions by the end of the year they were released. If I search for langviews for, e.g. "Onward" (2020 film), selecting time range 2020-01-01 - 2020-12-31 i can see the results for 42 language versions, despite the fact, according to Wikidata, by the end of 2020 there had been already 44 language versions. Ukrainian and Russian pageviews data are missing for that particular movie, in that particular time range. The same thing with "Tenet" (2020 film) but there're missing data for Romanian pageviews. Why Langviews doesn't work accurately? LeoXspm (talk) 15:49, 25 April 2025 (UTC)
- Pulling up those examples in the main Pageviews tool, we see it also gives no data (example). This a "Not found" error, which usually means no pageviews. If I include redirects, there are quite a few pageviews. Pageviews are associated with the title, not the page ID, so perhaps some page moves and/or history merges are at fault here. The Langviews tool unfortunately doesn't include redirects, though that's something I'd like to see added eventually. MusikAnimal (WMF) (talk) 04:41, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
Dave Portnoy Pageview Issue
[edit]Problem: When we looked at this data in November 2024, he had more than 5 million pageviews over the past four year. Now it's showing less than one million for all time - hoping someone can help explain or fix this discrepancy!
