Subject: [Foundation-l] Wikipedias by page views
To: Wikimedia Foundation Mailing List <foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org>

Inspired by the Wikimania thread, I decided to work out approximately how
much traffic each language of Wikipedia gets.  I totaled the top 1000 page
views for February at http://stats.grok.se/ for each of the Wikipedia
communities and arrived at the following list:

  Language          Page views          % of Total

1  English             929238291           50.32%
2  German              188053798           10.18%
3  Japanese            174055663           9.43%
4  Spanish             112874582           6.11%
5  French              76874066            4.16%
6  Italian             58002665            3.14%
7  Polish              54562647            2.95%

Assumming that the number of page views for the top 1000 pages is
representative of the total count for all pages, it appears that English
accounts for just over half all Wikipedia traffic at present.  It also
suggests that EN Wikipedia probably gets over 1 billion page views per
month.  ;-).  It would be interesting to see pageviews per article if anyone
wants to add in the article counts for each community.
