Okay, I think I've managed to semi-automate this now. In the future,
updates should appear within a day of new backup dumps going up.
http://www.wikipedia.org/wikistats/EN/Sitemap.htm
This is generated from the backup dumps by Erik Zachte's processing
scripts: http://members.chello.nl/epzachte/Wikipedia/Statistics/
(To change the language of the page, change the "EN" to "NL" etc. Most
languages are not translated yet; contact Erik for info. All versions
should show the same data set.)
Erik: I made some slight tweaks to support filtering the data through
bzip2 as it reads; I don't know if that will work on Windows, though it
ought to. Patch attached.

I was just putting a few finishing touches on my simulateneous edit bug fix,
and I have two quick questions for anyone willing to answer them:
* Do HEAP tables in MySQL disappear on restart, requiring you to run another
CREATE TABLE query?
* If yes, would it be better to grant CREATE TABLE permissions to enuser and
create it on first use, or should something be put in a startup script?
Now some of you may be interested in what I'm doing mucking around with HEAP
tables, so I attached a source file and I will now explain my rationale.
The simultaneous edit bug occurs very rarely (maybe once every few days),
when two users pass the edit conflict check and then simultaneously try to
update the article. No edit conflict is registered. My thinking went like
this:
* Can't lock the whole table because it's not worth the performance
degradation for such a rare error
* Instead use MySQL's user locks to provide synchronisation
* But PHP threads die all the time for no good reason, so there is a risk
that a lock will be left unreleased. Due to persistent connections, the lock
will stay active indefinitely. Only the DB thread which created the lock can
release it.
* Waiting for a timeout and then pressing on regardless is possible but not
ideal
* Instead, when a PHP thread gets a lock, it registers its DB thread ID in a
HEAP table.
* If another thread tries to get the lock but times out, it kills the
offending DB thread
Using shared memory or something like that would be faster, it's just not
scalable.

Thank you Brion! I guess it was my mistake to make the original request while
you were on vacation... One minor thing though; If it wouldn't be too much
trouble, then it would be great if the "Retrieved from" url text was an
active link. http://www.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Foo is also a bit
messy; http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo would be better (this isn't that
important though).

That sounds like a great idea to me.

Okay, Wiktionary should now be back in line with the version of the
software running on the other wikis.
And, hopefully, not too broken. :)

Hello. I have some question on Wikipedia stats. Sorry if this question was
already answered elsewhere.
In japanese wikipedia, access counter is not disabled. Many took notice
that, since around the beginning of July, the increase of page view count
has slowed down quite a bit. We figured, or guessed, that it has to do with
"caching" which was introduced around that time. But we don't know what it
is counting now, or what it was counting before. For example, daily views of
Main page and "Wikipedia:welcome, newcomers" become something like 1/5 to
1/10.
Is it just now counting the number of log-in users who access the page, as
opposed to all access including those by non-logged on users?
Those stats would help wikipedians as well as outsiders (occasionally
including journalists) to understand the activity level of wikipedia, if
roughly. I would appreciate if someone could help on this.
regards,
Tomos

I have the new mailman installed now, but the administrative interface
is giving me some trouble. I'm working through it, but It's driving
me crazy. Basically, the changes that are made through the admin
interface (including moderation tasks) don't take effect. I'm
checking permissions, but it's not working out just yet.
Really, I just sent this message to make sure that things are still
working in terms of mail delivery.

I saw images on CNN yesterday. I wonder how someone will get through the
walking crowd to deliver fuel :)
That is if phones are still operational and a fuel order can be placed
at all.
1-3 sound good to me. I feel reassured that Wikipedia will be online
when the world's only super power (no pun intended) breaks apart.

I have read news about a power problem in the USA. Is there a backup power
system for the Wikipedia servers and there conection to the internet?
