RationalWiki:Pages by popularity

This page is dead, but is being retained as an archive. Please do not edit it! This page has either outlived its usefulness, or, through neglect and/or indifference, become unused. If you wish to reinvigorate it, bring it up on the talk page.

These logs are very imperfect, but will give you a rough idea what's up with this.

The number is the number of pageviews coming in via the /wiki form of the URL. (Other forms are not counted, e.g. diffs, in-MediaWiki redirections, etc. So some pages with a popular redirect might need to be hand-merged if you cared a lot about the count.)

• [1] (4,941,847 bytes)
• [2] (6,917,870 bytes)
• [3] (5,714,253 bytes)

Raw pagehit logs

These are the month's log from squid1 concatenated with the log from squid2 (which is why the timestamp appears to restart half way through). Note: These links automatically download the file.

• [4] (326,711,908 bytes, expands to 6,594,965,830 bytes)
• [5] (353,310,816 bytes, expands to 7,131,549,181 bytes)
• [6] (358,071,400 bytes, expands to 7,235,593,627 bytes)

How this was made

The shell script is:

#!/bin/bash
grep -oP "wiki\/.*" $1 | grep -v "wiki\/.*\/" | grep -v "\?" | grep -o "\/.*" | sed -e 's/%20/_/g' | sed -e "s/%27/'/g" | sed -e 's/%28/(/g' | sed -e 's/%29/)/g' | sed -e 's/%3F/?/g' | sort | uniq -c| sort -nr

Here's the first thirty lines of the pagehits log from 201510.pagehits.xz:

The aim of the script is to get only requests starting http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/ and not any other hits. The script probably needs more than a few tweaks.

If anyone feels up to setting up the code from Wikimedia Toolforge - Pageviews for RW purposes, we have pagehits logs back to late 2012 on hand.
