Thanks! Those graphs are really useful. Is there any possibility that they could be added to the main stat pages for the projects, like http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/SummaryEN.htm, or even the report card pages?

It's unfortunate that such informative graphs are currently hidden away.

I was poking around on stats.wikimedia.org and reportcard.wmflabs.org to see

if I could find out how overall editing levels had changed (if any) over the

past year. Unfortunately, it seems that all of our "edits per month" graphs

show all edits, including bot edits. Since changes in bot editing levels are

often dramatic from month to month, this noise effectively cancels out the

usefulness of the graphs. For example, you can see a huge spike in March

when I presume the Wikidata bots were running at full force:

http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/ChartsWikipediaEN.htm#3

My question is: Would it be possible to replace or augment these graphs with

graphs that exclude bot edits? I know that bot status is not stored in the

revision table, so this would be quite expensive to tally. Would it be

prohibitively expensive? Sorry if this is a dumb question.
