Cool. WikiProject Popular Pages is fixed now, BTW. We'll try to make sure everyone is
switched over ASAP. Thanks for the extra time!

No problem at all, end of June is fine with us. But Erik's right, it's just a
matter of changing the url you download from, the rest is meant to be compatible and we
can help if you have questions.

Subject: Re: [Analytics] Pagecount Datasets to be Deprecated at the end of May
Hey Dan,
thanks for the reminder! I'm worried there are a lot of community and GLAM tools that
rely on these datasets and are not yet transitioned to the new data sources (like
WikiProject popular pages). Is there any chance we could get a 1 month reprieve so that
Community Tech could track down and fix some of these tools before the deprecation? Sorry
we didn't do this earlier. We just hired a new developer though and I think this would
be a good on-boarding task for them. Let me know what you think.

Just a reminder, we will be deprecating the pagecounts datasets at the end of May, as we
mentioned earlier this year [0]. This means these files will remain there to be used by
researchers but new files will not be generated in the future.
Pagecounts datasets that will be deprecated
pagecounts-raw
pagecounts-all-sites
Options for switching to the new datasets [1]:
pageviews for the same format but better quality data
pagecounts-ez for compressed data
