[edit] No update since January?
I was hoping to get some insight in the user base dynamics. :( --ZooGuard (talk) 09:16, 3 May 2013 (UTC)
[edit] If anonymous users were tracked...
How high up would 173.32.30.79 be? Probably pretty high, huh? Wehpudicabok [話] [変] 21:00, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

[edit] June, July and August...
It looks like LArron is on a vacation. :) Anyway, the lapse demonstrates for the umpteenth time that RW lacks redundancy in "staffing" - too many things depend on a single person continuing to volunteer time and effort.--ZooGuard (talk) 13:14, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

- User:Genghis Khant started the whole thing in the current format in 2008. Before him User:Jtl had a look at the stats, I think - but that was even before my time, and sadly, I never had an exchange with Jtl.
- I took over in Nov 2008: nearly six years ago. In the beginning, I recognized all the editors in the top-10 - today, not even half of them, as I'm ignoring many of the current discussions.
- At the time, I built up a couple of perl routines to query the edit data. It was intended for Conservapedia, but worked with other wikis (RationalWiki, Citizendium, A Storehouse of Knowledge, etc.) However, it only takes into account non-anonymous editors. That's fine for CP and CZ, but here at RW, editing via RW becomes more and more important
- User:Nx integrated some very interesting queries into RW's API. Especially useful could be
- http://rationalwiki.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=activeusers&aclimit=500&acmonth=08&acyear=2014 gives you a list of the active users in Aug 2014 - including IPs
- Every time I update RW's stats, I'm thinking: "I really should include the IPs". But then, I crank up the old machine, and use the clever queries only for a plausibility check. And nobody complaints - as only a handful editors look at it: not enough to justify eine Extrawurst für RW zu braten (come up with a RW-centric solution)
- So, if anyone wants to improve/update/overtake this page, go for it :-)

- So, is the active users table based on that API query, or crawling the logs? What exactly do you query, the Recent changes? I can try convincing the snake to do some stuff the next time you are not available, but a few starting points would be nice.--ZooGuard (talk) 17:31, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
[edit] Shit, August
Slow month, eh? MĖSSIÅH ØF DØØM Yesterday seems as though it never existed

- Well, this makes it official - we should rename it OsakaSunWiki. (Stats for the previous months would show a similar picture if OS's IP edits were included.)--ZooGuard (talk) 06:47, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
[edit] How does this update?

- LArron usually does all the work. If they don't stop by, it doesn't get updated (a terrible system, I know).
