I'm currently working gathering data for the Autoconfirmed article creation trial project[1]. One of the measures we're interested in is the number of new articles, both surviving and deleted, that is created per day. I know that recent data is logged through EventBus, but if possible I'd would also like to have historic stats on this (e.g. going back a handful of years). Would there happen to be a dataset of that available somewhere?
