Anders raised the question how this relates to "smarter" machine-created traffic. Do we know more about this?

Have been tracking medical pageviews for EN WP for more than 10 years. It appears our readership peaked around 2014, there was a bump during the pandemic, and now the fall in pageviews is continuing again... This despite much of our pageviews for medicine continuing to be related to the pandemic.

Additionally, pandemic 2020 with a lot of lockdowns makes many people commit to different activities, among them starting editing on Wikipedia or reading more. Basically, in my opinion it is better to compare with 2019 numbers. Also, it will be useful to have some kind of survey about this which can give us a better overview of these data. As I`m editor and admin on Macedonian Wikipedia, I was quite surprised that our Wikipedia actually continues to grow in terms of reading and having a stable editing base.
