The old definition was never put down clearly in words, but it can be understood easiest I think from this SQL query that generates pagecounts-all-sites (which was what wikistats used until this switch): https://github.com/wikimedia/analytics-refinery/blob/master/oozie/pagecounts...

Strainu I know you can read that, but if others are curious I'll try to put it in words.

Hello!

The analytics team wishes to announce that we have finally transitioned several of the pageview reports in stats.wikimedia.org to the new

pageview

definition [1]. This means that we should no longer have two conflicting sources of pageview numbers.

While we are not not fully done transitioning pageview reports we feel

is an important enough milestone that warrants some communication. BIG Thanks to Erik Z. for his work on this project.

Please take a look at a report using the new definition (a banner is present when report has been updated) http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/TablesPageViewsMonthlyCombined.htm

Thanks,

Nuria
