Open these two pages:
<http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/ChartsWikipediaFR.htm>
<http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/ChartsWikipediaEN.htm>
Each has four bar charts with yellow bars. Ignore the top two charts.
Focus
on the third and fourth charts with yellow bars.
Random fluctuations aside, the ones for French show a consistent upward
trend.
They don't.
Are you willing to concede that they look *markedly* different from the
English ones, and don't show a clear downward trend starting in 2007, as
the English ones do? :))
Sure, I am: en.wiki is the one in the worst conditions. However, any
hypothesis explaining decline (or proposing corrections) only for
en.wiki and not for all the other wikis (which similarly experienced it)
is IMHO useless.
