Tried this with a heatmap and there's no way to make it look pretty :(

I'm all for sharing this. Sucks that the page itself is quite difficult to read though. (I don't think that's something we can necessarily fix, though I can make a heatmap showing countries by upload? Would be tricky to make out some of the smaller countries in Europe but I'll try it out)

TLDR: Interesting stats but ugh, it's kinda an ugly link :-/ I wish there was a prettier way to do it :-/.

Don't really have an objection to posting it per se but posting it frequently could get annoying especially since it's sorta a wall of stats/text. Perhaps a tweet with some specific stats 'in' the text (to save people from having to parse it themselves) and then posting again if there are significant changes (right now the top ones are fairly far apart but could obviously change) and/or before the final push (as you can see on the graph the largest upload time is very much at the end).

Alternatively (and somewhat preferred if someone thinks they can do it well) an illustrative graphic to go with the link or instead of it? .. perhaps a map either with rankings or uploads? or pushing a couple countries that are close together?

Just checking if anyone has objections for us to share this link from our social media accounts: https://tools.wmflabs.org/wlm-stats/#countries

Would be great to let our follower know who is in the league periodically!

Thanks!
