Also I think there are fewer "me too" and "That's great, congratulations" -type messages, which on the whole is a good thing I think. I suspect analysis would show just as many topics and substantive comments. John

There has certainly been a shift to Facebook in that time and possibly to Twitter and maybe the specialist sublists like tech and I think education. I'm not sure I approve of all of that both for open source reasons and because it excludes the pseudonymous amongst us. But it has certainly happened, hopefully in the most part with specialised discussions now taking place in specialist areas. Regards Jonathan Cardy

In this period the average numbers have declined and now they are at 30% or possibly 20% of what they were in 2012.

Has there been an increase in wiki activity over the same period?
