*Summary: *This talk will highlight various recent insights and new
sources of data on how readers read Wikipedia, going beyond the familiar
pageview numbers (that tell us which topics are popular and how overall
traffic is developing, but not e.g. which parts of articles are being
read). While we are still only beginning to understand some of these
aspects, we now know more than a year or two ago. The presentation is
centered around data analysis done by the Reading team, but will also
include findings by other WMF teams and by external researchers.
