This looks good, but should it be [[Template:Statistics]] or [[Template:Project statistical breakdown]]. Also brings up another issue, someone was doing reader stats on the toolsever. Can we get a most popular in the last 7 days version of that?

It will generate statistics every day at 00:10 UTC. Currently, it is working on sr.wn and en.wn. If anyone from other project is interested to have those statistics, I may add it easily. It changes pages [[Template:Statistics]]. However, I didn't make possibilities for localization yet, but I'll do that in the future. _______________________________________________ Wikinews-l mailing list Wikinews-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikinews-l

I changed program, so statistics for every day will be kept for some time on Toolserver. This means that tomorrow we will have statistics for one day changes, the day after tomorrow for two days etc. On 11/21/07, Milos Rancic <millosh(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Actually the reader stats are Leon's (from de) wikicharts tool. I'm glad we have this bot, the old (similiar) statistics were not being updated very regurally. As a side note, please put a note up on [[WN:BOT]] before starting operations 0bawolff. On Nov 21, 2007 1:00 PM, Brian McNeil <brian.mcneil(a)wikinewsie.org> wrote:

Bot is "fully internationalized". At its page on Meta [1] you may check translations in other languages. Primary, I used Wikipedia interwiki links for getting translations and I got translations for all wn languages. However, I already see that some translations are not so good. Also, if there is no translation, default value is name in English. You may do whatever you think that it is correct with the right side of dictionaries. For example, if you want to change "Administrator" to "admins" in English, do it at the right side of translations['en']['Administrator'], but don't change key value. Today or tomorrow, I'll open accounts (and bot accounts) on all wn wikis, which means that I'll be able to start with adding statistics at other wikis from the beginning of the next week. Until that, it would be good to hear if some communities don't want those statistics. (However, I'll check for approval for all communities before I include particular language in the bot job.) Presently, bot is working on English [2] and Serbian Wikinews [3]. This means that interwiki links for other languages don't work. In the next few weeks I'll remove interwikis which don't exist.
