Indeed! Orienting it that way (pivoting on
language rather than
project) is something several people have asked for; I plan to spend a
chunk of my spare time (that is, recreational time) trying to make it
work. Should be fairly trivial.

Hello Finn,
I do not have a specific answer to your question. However, it might be
worthwhile to add Finnish in to the comparison as according to the CLDR 26
T-L information
http://www.unicode.org/cldr/charts/26/supplemental/territory_language_infor…
You have some sizable Finnish language speakers in Sweden:
Swedish {O} sv 95.0% 99.0%
Finnish {OR} fi 2.2%
So if the similar query is executed on Finnish language, and the results
also show some "undue" proportion of visits from Sweden, then what you
observed as anomaly is the that unique. We probably need many iterations of
comparative outcomes and normalization of data (Sweden does have higher
population). Also, it might be handy to have some statistics on immigration
or residence, it is EU. I will not be surprised that for example the visits
from Oxford to Wikipedia website have sizable German language requests.
I am still a bit bothered by the number "1" in the current dataset. It
does not feel right since the numbers of 1.4% and 0.6% is a notable
difference in this regard. Perhaps we need some high precision "universal
percentage" number for each territory-language pair. It would be also great
to do another set of aggregation: i.e. given a territory, which language
versions of Wikipedia are accessed....
Best,

Hi Oliver,
Interesting dataset! I am curious about why the Danish Wikipedia is so
highly acccessed from Sweden. Could it be an error, e.g., with Telia
IP-numbers?
In Python:
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> df =
>>>
pd.read_csv('http://files.figshare.com/1923822/language_pageviews_per_c…tsv',
>>> sep='\t')
>>> df.ix[df.project == 'da.wikipedia.org', ['country',
>>> 'pageviews_percentage']].set_index('country')
pageviews_percentage
country
Austria 1
China 1
Denmark 61
Estonia 1
France 1
Germany 2
Netherlands 2
Norway 1
Sweden 18
United Kingdom 3
United States 3
Other 5
MaxMind has some numbers on their own accuracy:
https://www.maxmind.com/en/geoip2-city-database-accuracy
For Denmark 85% is "Correctly Resolved", for Sweden only 68%. I wonder if
this really could bias the result so much.
If the numbers are correct why would the Swedish read the Danish Wikipedia
so much? Bots? It does not apply the other way around: Only 2% of the
traffic to Swedish Wikipedia comes from Denmark.
best regards
Finn
