Top most viewed Wikipedias

How can I get a list of top most viewed Wikipedias for the last month? Perohanych (talk) 12:18, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

@Perohanych: Is it a one-time request or should it be done more than once? Dušan Kreheľ (talk) 12:45, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
@Dušan Kreheľ: It could be great to get the list every month, or at least once a year. I use it for the Ukrainian Wikipedia monthly newsletter WikiGerald, see, for example uk:Вікіпедія:Віківісник/2024-06 --Perohanych (talk) 12:24, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
@Dušan Kreheľ: I would also appreciate it if a one-time current list is made. --Perohanych (talk) 09:13, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

@Dušan Kreheľ Thank you very much! A great present for my birthday! :) --Perohanych (talk) 05:30, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Most viewed articles of a category with >20 000 articles

Hello, Is it possible to get the most viewed articles of a category (especially from https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat%C3%A9gorie:Portail:Politique_fran%C3%A7aise/Articles_li%C3%A9s) composed of more than 20.000 articles? Alternatively, if this is easier to do, would it be possible to see the 20.000 most viewed articles of the category? Thanks in advance! Prfjulien (talk) 12:31, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

The time interval? Dušan Kreheľ (talk) 21:19, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
During the last 30 days would be perfect! Prfjulien (talk) 07:54, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
Even better would be all time (or at least in the last two years)... Prfjulien (talk) 08:04, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

@Bluerasberry: I re-upload the new version (big error – another sorted as in the commentary): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tbpc8fp-p47v4QNy_lBYrmbvr3qPkDn5/view?usp=drive_link (The file is public). Dušan Kreheľ (talk) 19:00, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

"No results found" in Userview Analysus

I tried to check views of all the Wikipedia pages I edited, but using Userviews Analysis always results in "no results found", even if the user "RFNirmala" is recognized while searching. When the namespace is "All", the site only takes views from my user page and sandbox. I'd like to see the views of all the articles I contributed in.

Tried this on both MS Edge (Windows 10) and Google (Android Samsung), to no avail, even after cleaning cookies. Userview analysis on other users does fine, however, taking views of articles they edited.

Enhancement request: smoothing

Can you please provide an option for statistical smoothing for chart-type = line, with user tunability (number of days)? Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 02:00, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Bot scans distort statistics on page views

Dear Team,

have you noticed that the regular bot scans distort the statistics of page views? Example: https://pageviews.wmcloud.org/?project=de.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&redirects=0&start=2015-07-01&end=2024-08-17&pages=Per%C3%BCckenstrauch

Especially as this only occurs so regularly with certain articles... Perhaps the problem can be more precisely localized and possibly improved?

Thanks, Daniel

PS: Why there is only a statistics site for the pageview analysis of the German Wikipedia? Dankedaniel (talk) 10:20, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

@Dankedaniel See https://pageviews.wmcloud.org/pageviews/faq/#anomaly. Pageviews Analysis can be used on almost all WMF wikis. Just change the "Project" field accordingly. Best, MusikAnimal (WMF) (talk) 20:32, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

Massviews - Output to Wikitext

We can use Massviews to generate a list of stubs maintained by a Wikiproject, ranked by popularity. This is a very handy list of low-hanging fruit which can form part of a to-do list, inspiring editors to contribute. However, the best way I've found to export Massviews data to Wikipedia is to copy the table into the Visual Editor. This loses the page-view link per line, and is very clunky for large tables.

I'm active in Wikiproject Video Games, which has 8,000+ marked stubs. While I could just link to the Massview Results, it seems like wasted time/resources to regenerate these results.

I have never seen this report on Wikiproject pages. I think it would be useful for editors to see where they can have a high impact with surprisingly little effort. I can see many Wikiprojects benefitting, and believe that it could be an automated monthly feature should that be possible. - hahnchen (talk) 10:09, 13 September 2024 (UTC)
