Vipul Naik, 08/01/2017 08:13: Seems most likely indeed, especially since France appears as first country for nearly all wikis from Esperanto and below (<= 0.01% share of global total) at https://stats.wikimedia.org/archive/squid_reports/2016-10/SquidReportPageVi… , closely followed by USA. France is also 97 % of traffic for bm.wiki, which has a -87% that month, while we have no breakdown for kg, rn, tpi, ee, lg, cr; bg (+124 %) and wuu (+81 %) seem different patterns. (For convenience, I attach the TablesPageViewsMonthlyOriginal.htm row for the month sorted by variation.) It can happen that some large IP ranges are reassigned to a different ISP, or otherwise get used in different countries, so that a significant portion of traffic seems to "move" to other countries: for instance we had this problem with Australia once (http://infodisiac.com/blog/2010/01/wikipedia-page-views-a-global-perspectiv… ). I'm not sure any ISP could have real users for so many languages: perhaps a huge mobile operator (Orange?) or some hosting suddenly used for a lot of proxying (OVH?), but I wouldn't bet on it. Nemo
