So, first off: Ironholds made all the numbers used in this metrics
meeting available in the tool at
http://pentaho.wmflabs.org/pentaho/Home
I'm not going to repost the username/password here, but find me (or
Ironholds?) on IRC if you're interested in exploring the data.

Ok. With that said, here are some thoughts about the numbers, with
some copy & paste from IRC:
Q:
RoanKattouw: Ironholds: Re the India language graph (97% of hits from
India being to enwiki), we are now idly wondering what places are more
diverse in those terms
RoanKattouw: Like, maybe the USA?
RoanKattouw: Is the Spanish- speaking internet more than 3% of the US internet?
RoanKattouw: cscott: Basically my question is, what is the % of enwiki
hits in the US. Apparently for India it's 97%
A:
zhwiki and/or eswiki are the top non-enwiki sites in the US; they
account for about 1% of traffic.
See

and cscott-us-proj.saiku on pentaho.
Q:
cscott: also i'm very curious about, say, the rise of iran traffic --
is that to enwiki or fawiki?
cscott: in general, is the global south reading enwiki? or is mobile
traffic to the local wikis exploding?
A: Almost all due to enwiki traffic.
See
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Cscott/2014_December_metrics
cscott-ir-proj-2.saiku on pentaho, and attached graph.
Q:
cscott-free: another question: does the decrease in latin america
correspond to a decrease in the eswiki project?
A:
The presented slide listed the following among the "Top Decliners":
Country, Month page views (billion), Annual growth rate
Ecuador, 0.04, -30.5%
Venezuela, 0.09, -28.0%
Portugal, 0.05, -23.8%
Mexico, 0.34, -23.2%
Colombia, 0.14, -23.2%
Chile, 0.08, -22.3%
Brazil, 0.32, -21.0%
Peru, 0.06, -17.8%
Countries in the top 25% by total human PVs as of October 2014; annual
growth rates based on linear model (May 2013-October 2014)
I'm still working on figuring out the answer to this one. As far as I
can tell, eswiki page views are pretty flat, and eswiki page views in
Ecuador (for instance) are down a little, but now by 30% annually. So
there's something mysterious here.
Possibly related: commons page views in latin america dropped sharply
starting in 2014-06, after mediaviewer was turned on. But that
doesn't seem to be quite enough.
