Hi everyone,

This will "capture" all external link clicks within the page content, tell the toolserver about it, and then load the intended page.
Something else: Is the toolserver able to handle the load this will produce? Maybe make it part of http://stats.wikimedia.org/ ?
I have no idea about the amount of traffic. I'd guess it's less than 1% of Commons page views, but I might be widely off.
One way to find out would be to turn it on for everyone :-)
But, being the script author, I'd rather have someone else put it into the default Commons JavaScript. IMHO it will work technically, I just want to avoid "developers do whatever they want on Commons"-issues. Volunteers?
Cheers, Magnus
