Great page!
This is a great idea for a project page. Hopefully it will get filled in as more people hear of it... — THIS IS M ESSED OCKER  (TALK) 23:44, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
 * But I am slightly pessimistic about finding all the necessary information. Some of the records could have been lost forever, although I might be wrong about this. -- S iva1979 Talk to me  06:37, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

I found it!
Serendipity brought me here. I think I have a nominee for most AfD'ed article: see Daniel Brandt currently working on its 13th AFD. Articles for deletion/Daniel Brandt (13th nomination). Anyone know any higher number? Carlossuarez46 01:01, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
 * The Gay Nigger Association of America article was finally deleted after its 18th AfD nomination. Kaldari 19:46, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
 * And actually Daniel Brandt is on its 14th nomination, not 13th. Kaldari 19:52, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

First featured article

Most number of footnotes at the end of a sentence
I've just looked at the Jimmy Carr article to see SEVEN references to him being born in Limerick. Surely this is some sort of record? -- DatRoot 23:44, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
 * 192(!) references for one sentence (found at WP:CITEKILL), but the article wasn't in mainspace at that time (and this problem has since been fixed). Double sharp (talk) 11:08, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

Most languages?
Hey I know no one's posted here for nearly 3 years but I'll still ask my question about this Wiki record I cannot find. Which Wikipedia articles appear in the most languages, I mean most number of different language Wikis, and is there a stats page that lists the top ones? I'm guessing Main Page and Wikipedia are top, but I am looking for a more interesting answer. I cannot find the answer, or even the question anywhere, I've searched on Wiki and Google. Carlwev (talk) 21:14, 30 May 2013 (UTC)


 * I'm showing my Wikipedia age here, but I recall a reference desk thread from March 2006 about this question; back then the best answer that anybody could find was India. For a more updated answer, it might be worth asking the editors at Wikidata. Graham 87 02:58, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Also see a thread above about this topic. Graham 87 03:00, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I didn't realize this when I initially replied to this topic, but there is actually a special page just for this purpose – see Special:MostInterwikis. As of 19 June 2013, the winner was Russia. Graham 87 05:52, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

Encouraging bad behavior?
Although most of the records on this page are benign, a few like "Most vandalised article", "Longest undetected vandalism", "Longest undetected vandalism in articles", "Longest undetected copyvio", and "Longest undetected hoax article" seem to implicitly present a challenge to the reader to set a new record by engaging in bad behavior. On the other hand, they also help demonstrate to normal editors how long errors can persist, and why even old articles need careful review. Do the benefits outweigh the risks here? Dcoetzee 21:41, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

Longest name for a category
Hi! Which category has the longest name? and in others languages?. --Dhidalgo (talk) 15:39, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

 * Fixed; thanks for pointing this out. Graham 87 02:25, 3 February 2014 (UTC)

Most external links
The largest page in Category:Medical Subject Headings is List of MeSH codes (D02) which has 2542 external links (all to the same website). Is this a record? PrimeHunter (talk) 16:26, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

ctrl+f question regarding "references"
Wouldn't many people ctrl+f "citations" looking for a record thereof, so should the word be added alongside or something? It confused me initially. Is there a difference between citations and references? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vulpecular (talk • contribs) 16:09, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
 * "References" is the term used most often in Wikipedia; it hardly differs much in meaning from "citations". I don't think it would do any harm to add the word "citations" in the text, so I've done so. Graham 87 04:35, 16 May 2014 (UTC)


 * In answer to the second part of Vulpecular's question, a citation is text quoted from a given source, either directly or paraphrased whereas a reference indicates the source of some more general information. So, given a sentence in a police report "Fred said afterwards that he and the others had found the experience very frightening", one could cite "The experience frightened Fred" in a Wikipedia article.  However a sentence "Company X's stock declined during the '90s, prior to their merger with Y" in a wiki article, giving a link to a graph of their stock value over time would be giving a reference.  It's not surprising the two terms are often confounded. - TB (talk) 08:31, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation page records
A recent article lists the dab pages with most entries, but a question then came up in discussion at Wikipedia_talk:Disambiguation: Which disambiguation page has the longest title?

The list of "Longest titles" here only shows the top 7, none of which are dab pages. Any ideas? Pam D  22:00, 2 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Uridine diphospho-N-acetylglucosamine:polypeptide beta-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase is the longest title that is a disambiguation page at 86 Unicode characters. In a list of page titles in the main namespace in order of decreasing length, titles of this length occupy positions 5740 to 6240.  The shortest titles that are disambiguation pages are 1 Unicode character in length (ּ and  ک)  - TB (talk) 08:08, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

User Records
I see here that we know who the 100000th and millionth user to join Wikipedia was. Does anyone know how to find out where each user comes in the list? If so please tell me. Thank you. The Free Editor Anyone Can Cite (talk) 03:00, 5 August 2014 (UTC)

Shortest Title
A good way to decide between all those single character titles is to redefine this record as 'smallest' title instead of 'shortest', and then judge the size of the title on data consumption or pixel size, potentially both. --Anon — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.202.184.15 (talk) 14:52, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
 * I looked at the kanji articles. They have been treated inconsistently. Some have been reduced to redirects. Some have been deleted with suggestions to go to Wiktionary. Also all the Emojis are articles 👀 . QuentinUK (talk) 11:08, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

Longest page nominee
Колчак is just slightly shorter than the List of law clerks of the Supreme Court of the United States but longer than both Opinion polling for the 2015 United Kingdom general election and Mary Hanford Ford. Or do only English Wikipedia articles count here? — Preceding unsigned comment added by GareginRA (talk • contribs) 22:23, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, only English pages count here. A list for all Wikipedias or Wikimedia projects would go on Meta. Graham 87 05:11, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

Does this count as the vandalism record?
This edit, made in 2007, reverted today by me. Almost 9 years undetected. 67.243.139.242 (talk) 03:04, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

Oldest active and continuously active editors
I've added two records to the section "Beginnings": the oldest active editor (User:Jimbo Wales) and the oldest continuously active editor according to the number of regular editions each month, which turned out to be User:Rmhermen. Jimbo's account is still active, but he had been absent for several months on some instances; this isn't the case with this other user. - Alumnum (talk) 21:44, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I still maintain that the whole thing is misleading and nebulous. Not everybody edits with the one account all the time, there is JimboWales, and the other user's entry is misleading because, as it says, they aren't recorded as making an edit in February/July 2002 (during which there were several software upheavals). Also, I am very wary of adding more stats about users here that aren't backed up by other lists, simply for privacy reasons. Graham 87 03:38, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
 * And if you're going to mention a thread somewhere else, it'd be nice if you could say so in the original discussion; see the relevant thread at Jimbo Wales's talk page. Graham 87 04:32, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

New vandalism record
Vandalism from 2008, just fixed (I googled it to make sure it was actually vandalism, Google turns up no references): https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Perfect_Game_Recording_Co.&action=history -- does this count for the record? Gnomingstuff (talk) 22:53, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Wow, I think it does! Thanks for letting us know; I've updated the page accordingly. I've also fixed the vandalism in the Portuguese translation of the article. Graham 87 02:03, 18 December 2018 (UTC)

A new record? Vandalised 13-May-2007, fixed 17-Jan-2019 , 11 years, 8 months, 4 days. Adpete (talk) 08:46, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure that's vandalism. It seems like a good-faith but rather clumsy attempt to describe what happened, like this other edit by the IP around the same time. Graham 87 14:47, 17 January 2019 (UTC)


 * If it is not vandalism, then we could create a record for a new achievement, something like "longest undetected undesirable good-faith edit". PJTraill (talk) 17:56, 17 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Aww drats! I'll have to keep looking, because I'm sure the true record is well over 10 years. It's amazing what nonsense survives in articles that are barely touched for years (like a 2007 TV series, in this case). I'm sure I've seen copyvios well over the stated record of 8 1/2 years, too. Adpete (talk) 22:57, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I dunno about a new record ... undesirable according to whom? But then you could say that about vandalism too ... Graham 87 04:20, 18 January 2019 (UTC)


 * I think I meant "undesirable" as shorthand for something like "reverted (without dissent) when the community finally noticed". PJTraill (talk) 22:56, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

It's me again, with another vandalism revert, from December of 2007. (The IP's only other edit is very obvious vandalism in the same 5-minute time span; no reference to such a company exists anywhere; the "arse" factor, etc.) Gnomingstuff (talk) 19:04, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

Not sure if this really fits, but there are some doozies out there. Here is one: talk:Avengers:_Infinity_War%23This_movie_follows_Thor:Ragnarok. I suppose the metric could be (number of characters in discussion)/(affected number of characters in article body). So in my example, we get a score of 29233/4=7308...! --Zojj tc 04:07, 21 June 2019 (UTC)

 * , unfortunately it hasn't been quite long enough yet. The article was created on May 13, 2006, 13 years and 9 months ago, versus the current record which is 14 years 3 months. So I guess we'll see if it's still unreferenced in August. Ionmars10 (talk) 18:18, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

COVID-19 as Article with Most References that is neither a list nor a biography

new longest undetected vandalism?
Just reverted some old vandalism and I'm pretty sure [|this] barely edges out the last record: 13 years, 8 months, 18 days. Gnomingstuff (talk) 04:26, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Wow, it does indeed! I've added it. Graham 87 04:49, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

it's me again (more longest undetected vandalism)
[This] edit is just barely older than the last one I mentioned (plus of course it's been longer since then). Also let me know if I should just edit the page myself, it's an official page so I wasn't sure.Gnomingstuff (talk) 07:36, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Sure, sounds like a new record ... though it is admittedly on the lower end of the vandalism scale. You can edit the page yourself ... I don't have that much time to do so at the moment. Graham 87 07:59, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I had more time on my hands than I thought. I've gone and added it. Graham 87 08:50, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Longest time without references (but is it legit?)
I think I've gotten one: Passive attack was nominated at AfD for being unreferenced since 2004, so I added some references to it. It was without them from 1 February 2004 to 14 April 2021. This is much longer than the previous record listed, but I am wondering if this counts as legit (since the version I edited did have an external link under a "Further reading" section). What does the peanut gallery think? jp×g 23:17, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I think there's room for both; I've edited the page accordingly. Graham 87 01:44, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

Confusion
For the record: "Longest time an article had no inline or explicitly-cited sources" (in the Articles section) it just says ditto, no link just "ditto" which article does it refer too and what is the time range for that article?

RandomEditorAAA (talk) 17:19, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
 * It's the same page as the one above; see ditto. Graham 87 08:39, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I've gone and changed it to "same as above" to clarify the text; that term is also a bit more formal than "ditto". "Ditto" is a reasonably common word though; is English not your first language? Graham 87 09:36, 12 August 2021 (UTC)

By namespace versus by type
If you're going strictly by namespace, then as noted Help:Starting a new page is the oldest, from 16 April 2001... but help pages existed before namespaces. HowDoesOneEditaPage, which was changed into a redirect to Help:Editing, was created on 14 February 2001. SummarizeDiscussion, which was changed into a redirect to Help:Talk pages, is from 17 January 2001! —  Scott  •  talk  11:43, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Nah, they were started earlier; see the August 2001 database dump, which is human-redable, especially once you get to know what the Unix times represent. There's also Wikipedia 10K Redux. I think categorising by namespace is more helpful as it's not as arbitrary. Graham 87 16:39, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

First deletion discussions
I have found a number of things which I think are interesting, but I'm not sure if they are legit. I will put them here and we'll see what the deal is.

The earliest revision for an AfD page is Articles for deletion/George Francis Cruickshank, per this SQL query (2002-12-01T20:02:18‎). jp×g 08:14, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

The earliest revision for a VfD page (per this query) is this one, from 2002-05-15T15:22:23, which has the first vote on the page as such:
 * Formalism/art
 * Gianfranco May 14, 2002, because : subpage"

Oh ho -- but there's even earlier stuff at Wikipedia talk:Wikipedia utilities/Page titles to be deleted. I don't know what the deal is (there are no timestamps on most of these), but one comment on JamieTheFoool says "April 3, 2002".

Hmm, and that page links to even earlier stuff, at Wikipedia talk:Wikipedia utilities/Page titles to be deleted/Archive. These don't even have timestamps at all. And it links to something even further back...

Which is Wikipedia talk:Wikipedia utilities/Page titles to be deleted/History. This has a couple entries -- God knows when they're from, but the page says it was created on 2001-11-06.

You have any idea what of these is the real deal? Is there more stuff on Nostalgia that comes before this? My thinking here is that we have a few things of note here: the first standalone deletion discussion page, the first voting process, the first nomination of an article to be carried out by an admin (rather than just a direct summary deletion), and then before that, the first deletion itself. jp×g 08:22, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah, they're all the real deal ... see Archived articles for deletion discussions/Page history. I've imported the interesting edits from the Nostalgia Wikipedia. I don't know if all the old history survived but the earliest existing edits are from around the same time as the creation of the deletion policy, so perhaps we're not missing that much. Graham 87 08:48, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Also, UseModWiki deletions weren't logged anywhere, as far as I'm aware. Graham 87 08:49, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

Dang
I thought a 21⁄2 year old vandalism at William Draper might have made the list. Those are some seriously impressive records for going undetected. Not sure if there is room for a non-English vandalism category that this might make, though. VanIsaac, MPLLcont WpWS 01:23, 24 August 2022 (UTC)

Shortest pages?
If the legitimate shortest pages (as in, pages that weren't kept as redirects through page moves) were to be included here, the shortest disambiguation page on Wikipedia would be Phenylphenol, at 150 bytes. The shortest article would be Queen Eleanor's Vengeance and Other Poems, at 288 bytes. DizzyTheMan (talk) 16:42, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

User:Jasonr was made a sysop in 2003, in order to fix a server crash, and apart from that has four edits. That's gotta be something, right? jp×g 21:24, 27 October 2023 (UTC)


 * @JPxG: This led to Jimbo's final time desysopping someone! I believe it's the record, at least of the modern admin era (since there may have been some people with fewer edits who had access to the shared admin account). Graham87 might know. -- Tamzin  &#91;cetacean needed&#93; (they&#124;xe&#124;she) 21:28, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Yep, that's correct, with Clifford Adams (along with his CamelCase username CliffordAdams) being a close runner-up. I'm sure I remembered an old list of these ... and after much toing and froing, I managed to find it ... behold Historical archive/List of administrators by edit count, which I just restored!

 * Graham87, would it be possible to fully update this to 2023? You know, for those of us who were still editing with IP accounts back in 2006. Liz Read! Talk! 05:34, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
 * HaleBot could probably do it, but whether it should (if once or regularly) is probably an entirely different matter. That would fly against the face of the MFD discussion that led to it being deleted. To get the current answer, you can see the regular list of Wikipedians by number of edits and just ignore those not marked as admins. You could also view this 2022 query I did for admins with lowest edit counts in reverse to get a reasonably up-to-date answer. I/you could fork it for admins with highest edit counts. As for making it an onwiki page again, I'm not sure ... as you might know back in 2007 there were no usergroups between regular editors and admins (see this Signpost story) but now that's certainly not the case.
