I would like stats or a graph that shows:
Number of unique editors per article X number of articles with that many unique editors.
So for example
number of unique editors Number of articles with that many unique editors 15 356 30 3455
And so on. Is this even possible?
Certainly. If you know how to write in MySQL and some brand of computer language that supports MySQL, it shouldn't be hard to generate such stats from a database dump (see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Database_dumps). If you don't know how to, maybe someone who does will have pity on you and do it for you. I haven't gotten around to learning MySQL yet, but it looks to be probably fairly simple if you have access to a dump.
Mark, We have csv files of revision-level header information. Any standard stats package (Stata, SAS, R, etc) should have no trouble with them. I'll send you the file (10MB) for Simple English; tell me (or Erik Garrison, cc'ed, the creator of these files) when you're ready for the one for enwiki (3GB). Best, Jeremy
