[Wikinews-l] End of competition day 1

[Jon Davis]

I thought I'd chip in my 2 cents also.
http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/User:ShakataGaNai/ENWN_stats#Click_through_by_date

Out of curiosity I decided to pull stats on the number of click through's of
enwn.net links.  The daily average for clicks is 603, yesterdays (Day 1 the
competition) saw almost 5x times that amount, or 2913 clicks.  That is the
most clicks in a single day so far.

Impressive day, keep up the good work.
-Jon

PS.  I'll try to remember to update these stats periodically through out the
competition.
