Factors that might impact readership

 * Search results
 * Incoming links
 * Internal links
 * Article quality (drives each of above)
 * News events

Are numbers low or high?
I would argue they are significant:
 * Because of free license, many views (mobile apps, offline apps, Facebook & Google republishing, etc.) are not included.
 * As we will see, Wikipedia is used as scaffolding; thought leaders may form first opinions based on Wikipedia content.
