[Wikimedia-l] Re: Are we losing our readers?

Could there something be wrong with the presentation? The total number of edits at the English Wikipedia should have dropped 21,23% https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/en.wikipedia.org <https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/en.wikipedia.org]> The numbers at https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/en.wikipedia.org/contributing/edits/normal|ta… do show 63.8M edits in 2021 and only 61.5M in 2020.

Has this been analysed somewhere, are we losing our readers and contributors or is it mostly Google that access our info "smarter" not creating "views" Anders https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/de.wikipedia.org https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/en.wikipedia.org https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/nl.wikipedia.org https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/pl.wikipedia.org _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list -- wikimedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines and https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia-l Public archives at https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org… To unsubscribe send an email to wikimedia-l-leave(a)lists.wikimedia.org _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list -- wikimedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines and https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia-l Public archives at https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org… To unsubscribe send an email to wikimedia-l-leave(a)lists.wikimedia.org _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list -- wikimedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines and https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia-l Public archives at https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org… To unsubscribe send an email to wikimedia-l-leave(a)lists.wikimedia.org
