It's more likely that it's just an attack by automata, rather than a sharp peak of genuine interest. Since 20150306 is within the last 30 days I can look and check, and will do so now.

Hi
I was goofing around with the Wikipedia page counts dumps and noticed some strange anomalies.
For example:
The page “Double-entry_bookkeeping_system” had 55921 page views on pagecounts-20150306-070000.gz
Where it only had 54 views on pagecounts-20150306-100000.gz (3 hours later).
Is there a bug in the page counting system? How likely is it to have a sharp peak of interest in Double-entry_bookkeeping_system?
Best regards
