Commons got approx. 108M pageviews last month - https://stats.wikimedia.org/wikispecial/EN/TablesPageViewsMonthlyOriginal.h… This is slightly below Wiktionary, and about three times (all) Wikibooks, or five times Wikiquote or Wikisource - https://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/TablesPageViewsMonthlyAllProjects.htm My understanding is that this will only count people who visit a Commons file description page (or other page), but will not count any of the following other ways to access a file: * viewing a Commons file embedded in another wiki * viewing a "local description" of the file on a page on which it's embedded * viewing a "local mirror" of a file description page on another wiki * loading a file directly from upload.wikimedia.org without going through the Commons description page (someone, please correct me if I'm wrong!) So: * https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Lozupone_katz2.png - counts, but * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katz%27s_Delicatessen - does not count * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katz%27s_Delicatessen#/media/File:Lozupone_ka… - does not count * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Lozupone_katz2.png - does not count * https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/06/Lozupone_katz2.pn… - does not count This is consistent with the way the pagecounts work everywhere else, but will mean that the Commons pageview data doesn't fully reflect all the ways it's used.

See also https://tools.wmflabs.org/siteviews which lets you compare total pageviews or counts of unique devices to WMF projects. Not sure if this is helpful, but thought I'd share :) On Tue, Jul 12, 2016 at 4:24 AM, Andrew Gray <andrew.gray(a)dunelm.org.uk> wrote:
