Here to settle the perennial debate of whether RW is dying
Notes:
- Editors were counted using Special:Editcount, checking each month since our founding and tallying up the number of editors with 3 or more edits for that month.
- A threshold of 3 edits to qualify as "active" was used to filter out spam accounts and new users who fix two typos then never come back again.
- These numbers are off by 1 or 2 per month. I'm using data I originally gathered in mid-2014, and due to deleted pages and revisions, a small number of barely-qualifying users get bumped off over time. Recalculate these same numbers a year from now, and you'll have lost another 1-2 per month. This decay rate is actually pretty reasonable and there's no reason to panic about it.
In brief:
- Our number of editors is stable.
- Last I knew, our visitor count was about 2 million unique visitors per month. If visitor count was falling significantly, Trent or David would've said something.
- We aren't freaking dying. The old guard just needs to get over itself.
