Srikanth,<br><br>Good work. And thanks for sharing. <br><br>Since in this we are calculating edits per day, new users per day, new articles per day, and so on, I feel it will be good if those details are displayed instead of the current total edits/users/articles. In fact for daily analysis that data is more valubale than total edits/users. I know for developers like you it is just one line of code. But for non-developer users like me it makes big difference. :)<br>
<br>Also is is it possible to get the data of number of users who do at least 5 edits per day. I know that makes sense only for very active wikipedias. But still it is a good metric I suppose. <br><br>Thanks once again for sharing this.<br>

<div>Hi all,</div><div><br></div><div>ar:User:OsamaK had developed a pywikipedia based bot to collect daily stats[1] and has been running for over 2 years. I had just &quot;translated&quot; it and started running for Tamil wikipedia here[2]. I am now looking ApiSandbox[3][4] to build queries which will get more data(Bot activity, number of users with atleast 1 edit on the day,anon edits etc) which might be useful to log and keep track on daily basis.let me know if some other parameter might be useful to collect.</div>



<div><br></div><div>Feel free to run this on your Indic wiki project and observe the numbers :) This can help notice sudden spikes on any parameter on day-day basis and help relate to some event (outreach / real world events)</div>



<div><br></div><div>Thanks to Osama for the base code, the english version of which is available here[5]. Please feel free to fork and and add to it :)</div><br clear="all"><div><div>[1] <a href="http://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D9%85%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%AE%D8%AF%D9%85:OsamaK/%D8%A5%D8%AD%D8%B5%D8%A7%D8%A1%D8%A7%D8%AA/%D8%AF%D9%8A%D8%B3%D9%85%D8%A8%D8%B1_2011" target="_blank">http://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/مستخدم:OsamaK/إحصاءات/ديسمبر_2011</a> </div>
