MauriceAgain thanks Dan,To conclude, I think Wikipedia data are very nteresting for scientific study. I've seen some studies in information science, but in my field - Communicatoin science - very little. I hope to change that with my contribution :-)On a similar topic, when a user is logged in to perform edits to a page and he refreshes the wikipedia-page, does this register as a visit? Or do only not loggedon visits register as a visit?For now the traditional measurements are sufficient. I.e. I assume spider traffic is sort of random on a daily basis, and because I will do timeseries analysis, this will have little affect on the findingsDear Dan,thanks for this information. I looked at it the new data. Are these data also available per subject or only aggregated for the entire site? I am mainly interested in statistics about specific pages in Wikipedia.

We have been slow to announce this and change the pages because it's a confusing change.On Thu, Dec 24, 2015 at 4:44 AM, Maurice Vergeer <m.vergeer@maw.ru.nl> wrote:Maurice VergeerAgain thanks and best regardsBecause I want to relate the pagecounts to events taking place in the Netherlands (e.g televised political debates), knowing what the timezone is is important.Dear Federico Leva,thank you very much for the clarification and the quick reply.--On Thu, Dec 24, 2015 at 10:38 AM, Federico Leva (Nemo) <nemowiki@gmail.com> wrote:Maurice Vergeer, 24/12/2015 10:16:
I am looking at your pagecounts as archived on
https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-raw/2015/2015-12/
Can you tell me from what timezone the time stamps originate?
Any and all timestamps in dumps.wikimedia.org are in UTC. Apparently this is not as obvious as generally thought, so I've added a note: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Analytics%2FData%2FPagecounts-raw&type=revision&diff=240313&oldid=184255
