 * Sorry. I'm not a regular reader of the Signpost so perhaps I'm missing context, but what are you saying? Are you saying fewer people are visiting en.Wikipedia? --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 11:31, 10 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes. At least for the week being tracked.  Serendi pod ous  11:44, 10 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Is there a graph somewhere?
 * Couldn't it be the case where Google directs users to https pages in which visits don't count? I've read about this issue before, but I can't remember the details.  Mohamed CJ  (talk)  18:21, 10 August 2013 (UTC)
 * That was a problem for a few months, but it's now been fixed. --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 02:42, 11 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I see. Then does anyone know why is this happening?  Mohamed CJ  (talk)  02:48, 11 August 2013 (UTC)
 * It's probably because it's summer and people have better things to do than surf the web.  Serendi pod ous  02:55, 11 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Is there a graph somewhere? Meta? --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 05:23, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't know. Wikipedia's rule is not to care how many people are reading the information, only to ensure that the information is there to be read.  Serendi pod ous  06:59, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
 * you have all misunderstood the stats. We probably, based on fairly average page views of the perennial top 10 article Facebook (most weeks between 500 & 700k views), have had very average total page views across the board. But we haven't all looked at the same page as much as other weeks. We do have the choice of 4 million to view, after all. The-Pope (talk) 00:32, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
