2008 South Ossetia war
Hi, if you ever hear back from Henrik about the stats for the 2008 South Ossetia war article, I'd love to know - I'm also extremely interested in taking a look at the page view metrics of this article! It boggles my mind that a page view counter isn't enabled for Wikipedia - we're running MediaWiki at work (an older version, no less!!), and the number of page views shows at the bottom of every page, plus we can look at weekly/monthly reports - clearly the capability is built into the software, but just as clearly, Wikipedia chooses not to make this information public - fie upon them!!!

 * The page counter on Wikimedia projects has been disabled because the implementation does not bear millions of updates per hour. Erik Zachte (talk) 16:27, 4 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I will do that individual analysis for you! Starting with August 7. Will take two days before there are the first results, is that ok? --- Best regards, Melancholie (talk) 20:37, 15 August 2008 (UTC)


 * See also overall week day analysis to compare...
