User:Ixfd64/revision sizes

This is an R script for visualizing the byte sizes of Wikipedia pages over time. I originally wrote this for an assignment for my class, but I have decided to release it to the public. Other Wikipedians are welcome to improve it as they see fit.

Usage


This script requires R to be installed. The best way to use this script is to put it in a text file located in the directory of your R workspace. For example, if you named your file wpgraph.txt, you can run the script by entering source('wpgraph.txt') in the R console.

Limitations

 * Certain characters are not processed correctly. For example, "1+1" must be entered as 1%2B1.
