Because myself and others have been frustrated by the lack of good stats on the number of active editors on the English Wikipedia, I have compiled some stats on the editing frequency on enwiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Editing_frequency I am going to forgo any extensive analysis for now. But I will say that these trends mostly mirror trends seen elsewhere, with a peak in early 2007 followed by a decline and then leveling out as we go towards the present. In September, 130,000 registered users and 525,000 anons made at least one edit to an article. If you define "active editors" as those making at least 20 article edits per month then 14000 registered users and 6000 anons met that threshold in September. -Robert Rohde _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
