Thanks Alice :)
Aleksey, the graphs were never off on meta. Please check if your graphs show any errors in the browser console - I did update the underlying libraries several times.

Was this why it was offline on meta for a couple of weeks?
Amazing! I have an immediate use for this on the en.wikipedia. On May 5, 2015 4:25 PM, "Yuri Astrakhan" yastrakhan@wikimedia.org

Graph tag support template parameter expansion. There is also a
Graphoid
service to convert graphs into images. Currently, Graphoid is used in
case
the browser does not support modern JavaScript, but I plan to use it
for
all anonymous users - downloading large JS code needed to render graphs
is
significantly slower than showing an image.
Potential future growth (developers needed!):
- Documentation and better tutorials
- Visualize as you type - show changes in graph while editing its code
- Visual Editor's plugin
- Animation <

usage in MediaWiki. The project stayed dormant for almost half a year, until Zero team decided it was a good solution to do on-wiki graphs.
The
project was rewritten, and gained many new features, such as template parameters. Yet, doing graphs just for Zero portal seemed silly. Wider audience meant that we now had to support older browsers, thus Graphoid service was born.
This project could not have happened without the help from Dan
Andreescu,
Brion Vibber, Timo Tijhof, Chris Steipp, Max Semenik, Marko Obrovac, Alexandros Kosiaris, Jon Robson, Gabriel Wicke, and others who have
helped
me develop, test, instrument, and deploy Graph extension and Graphoid service. I also would like to thank the Vega team for making this
amazing
library.
