December 2010 update

Hello. I've just found out that your script has failed to count Growth for be: and be-x-old:. What's the reason? :) Wizardist 17:32, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Hello. Sorry for bothering you, but that was me who asked you to increase the weight of Belarusian (be-x-old) wiki to 1.4 in the List of Wikipedias by sample of articles. Frankly speaking I didn't suppose it would result in the Growth counted incorrectly and set to "n/a". As you can see from the difference for be: and be-x-old: the community of the latter one made a big step forward to get a Growth award in November, but now the team is disappointed, as the the Growth results made in November appear to be lost. Maybe is it possible to set the Weight for be-x-old: for November back to 1.0, recount the growth and then get "n/a" for December, when the Growth results aren't so painful? —zedlik 00:43, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

Sorry about that. I ran it with the old weight and be-x-old: would been +3.27 growth and be: would have been just +0.09 growth. How about I just change be-x-old growth from "n/a" to +5.55 and explain with a footnote that you would have still had +3.27 anyway? Doing this will bump ja: off the podium so hopefully they don't complain :) -MarsRover

They are big enough to ignore such a bump. :) 3.27 is good. It was proposed to fallback the Weight this month and get n/a on January 1, 2011. Wizardist 08:19, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, I suppose the variant you suggested would be great. Maybe it is even worth putting +3.27 as a primary growth value as it is the real value with the explanation that "mathematical" growth was +5.55 but it included the change of the Weight, or something like this. I've discussed this with Wizardist, he agreed that this variant would suit best. I hope ja: won't really complain as impartially they got the 4th place :) —zedlik 14:02, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

I've noticed the update, many thanks for your help! —zedlik 03:38, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

Lezgian Wikipedia

What's wrong with Lezgian Wikipedia? I think that you made ​​a mistake in counting. Here is the list of articles with page size. Over 20 articles have a size more than 10 kilobytes. Or we do something wrong and we must count without interwikis list? And where can I find full list of Lezgi 1000 articles, because I found just 125 articles, but in this list figured 129?--Soul Train (talk) 19:59, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

It seems that something has gone wrong ... in july list at ca.wiki is showed an absent article, looking at List_of_Wikipedias_by_sample_of_articles/Absent_Articles#ca_Català are showed two , both are present and have interwikis at english article. (HIV/AIDS indicates an error in the absent articles page) --Mafoso (talk) 07:50, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

Hey! Why Lezgi Wikipedia have just 0,1 points in September!? We created 11 articles in September. Also article about Rome was expanded by uzer Aslan4ik to more than 100 kb. I undo your revision for October, because there's absolutely false data. 11 article is at least 0.11 points, and Rome can expand for at least 0.2.--Soul Train (talk) 23:37, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

Your Rome is actually counted as a large article (lez.wp articles > 30k chars). --MarsRover 15:49, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

As long as you do not give me detailed information for the growth, I can't accept this data. I want to know the real algorithm, and that there are clear rules to update the rankings.--Soul Train (talk) 23:45, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

Install python and run the following script at the beginning of the month: List of Wikipedias by sample of articles/Source code. You will get the same results I get. --MarsRover 15:49, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

Also, list of Neglected articles - there has been one existing article, and 9 "red" articles. So what we see now? M. Gandi allready created, and V. Lenin created at 26 September. You should fix this bug, your program working wrong.--Soul Train (talk) 00:02, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

You need the en.wp interwiki link back to lez.wp for the scoring program to know about whatever was created. I start the score program around the 1st of the month so all the iw link need to be correct by then (Gandi link was added late). If given enough time, Bots will eventually add the iw links which is probably why earlier months were fine. This is the reason your score wasn't as high as you thought. Next month calculation will include the non-counted articles in both the score and growth. But if you want to re-run it now, just run the program above. --MarsRover 15:49, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

• Thanks for answers.--Soul Train (talk) 19:04, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

Weight of kk.wiki and az.wiki

Hi. Many Turkish, Azeri and Kazakh words are similar. And the length of many of the sentences are identical. Therefore, Azeri and Kazakh should be "1.3" as the Turkish. --Bolatbek (talk) 14:55, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

Kazakh language based on cyrillic script. Even if these languages ​​are very similar, they are not equal in size.--Soul Train (talk) 06:37, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

For every Wikipedia, the articles in this sample list are retrieved (based on interwiki links from the English Wikipedia) and the number of characters is calculated (minus "comments" and the "interwiki" text at the bottom of the article).

Calculated the size (byte) or number of characters? I think that the number of characters. Examples,

Gömleğimin rengine uygun kravatınız var mı? ~38 character
Көйлегімнің түсіне сәйкес галстугыңыз бар ма? ~39 character

Kış mevsimi, yılın en soğuk mevsimi. Kışın kar yağıyor. Çocuklar, kar topu oynuyorlar, kardan adam yapıyor, buzda kayıyorlar. Bu mevsimde insanlar çok hasta oluyorlar. Hastalanmamak için dikkatli olmamız gerekiyor. ~216 character
Қыс маусымы, жылдың ең салқын маусымы. Қыста қар жауады. Балалар, қар лақтырып ойнайды, қардан адам жасайды, мұзда сырғанайды. Осы маусымда адамдар жиі науқастанады. Науқастанбау үшін абай болуымыз керек. ~203 character

--Bolatbek (talk) 14:39, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

Kazakh and Azeri have millions of speakers so there should be a Bible translation on the Internet. Just need to find a published text for "The Tower of Babel (Genesis 11: 1-9)". Also, Soultrain is right. If they have different character sets then they probably will have different weights. Croation and Serbian have different weights even though they are very similar languages. --MarsRover 20:15, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

I found them.

Kazakh Cyrillic 908 char ~1.3

Azeri 956 char ~1.2

--Bolatbek (talk) 12:00, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

False report of stubs

In the last update of List of Wikipedias by sample of articles/Stubs#ru Русский, there is a false report that Russian article for en:Umar is a stub. On November 1 16:32 UTC it was renamed from ru:Умар ибн Хаттаб to ru:Умар ибн аль-Хаттаб, but there was a redirect from the former name to the present one, and the size was suffucient for an "article". I though that the redirects are processed correctly automatically by the statistical program. Isn't it so? - Ace111 (talk) 16:09, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

Yes and no, It is known limitation that the program doesn't handle localized REDIRECT statements. For example, it can understand this #REDIRECT [[Умар ибн аль-Хаттаб]] but not this #перенаправление [[Умар ибн аль-Хаттаб]]. I am not sure how to fix this without include 200+ translations of REDIRECT to the program. If you can fix this program, let me know. --MarsRover 19:54, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

Thank you, I forgot that renaming uses by default the localized magic word. Then, there are two possible ways to deal with this:

1) One can build a table of 200+ translations. This can be done in automatic way. E.g. by something like:

lynx -dump -width=999 http://svn.wikimedia.org/doc/MessagesRu_8php_source.html | grep "'redirect'"
which gives: ... '#перенаправление', '#перенапр', '#REDIRECT' ...
lynx -dump -width=999 http://svn.wikimedia.org/doc/MessagesEs_8php_source.html | grep "'redirect'"
which gives: ... '#REDIRECCIÓN', '#REDIRECCION', '#REDIRECT' ...

One can simply dump all these words to some list and check whether the file starts from #<some word> and this word is found in the list.

2) Or by recognizing the format of the file consisting of only one line: #<some word>[[<string>]] . I don't think that this format can mean something else but redirection. - Ace111 (talk) 20:33, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

Updating the List of Wikipedias by sample of articles

Hi, the list was not updated in February. Are you the only person who does the updating?--Drajay1976 (talk) 07:43, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

I assume it's because the system of interwikis is currently undergoing a redesign, breaking the automation. What's the plan, MarsRover? Is it possible to make a partial update without Wikipedias that implemented Wikidata already (:it, :hu) or do you prefer to wait until everything is done? — Yerpo ^Eh? 09:49, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

All articles still have interwikis, so no changes are necessary for making the update. — Ace111 (talk) 12:13, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Hmm, I was sure I saw them being removed over at :hu, but now I can't find that article. Nevermind, then. — Yerpo ^Eh? 14:16, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I was just busy in real life. --MarsRover 00:48, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Just an aside: It looks like the January prizes (for December 2012) have disappeared from List of Wikipedias by sample of articles/Growth. – Umbert' (talk) 21:01, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

I will take a look at it. --MarsRover 00:48, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

It looks like you fixed it, perfect. – Umbert' (talk) 18:27, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

Problems with interwikis

Hello, English Wikipedia starts to remove interwikis in its articles. Is it clear how to extract interwikis in a new way? — Ace111 (talk) 17:17, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

The interwikis are located here. But, you are correct it is not clear how to extract the the information. There are supposed to be new APIs available. --MarsRover 18:14, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

Btw, new APIs for wikidata --MarsRover 21:45, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

I made some adjustments to MakeScoreTable.py that should make it get the iw-links from Wikidata. Boivie (talk) 22:51, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll try it out at the end of the month. --MarsRover 01:55, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

It seems that the new code doesn't take into account the interwikis which are in the articles in the English Wikipedia. Today's report lists 2 stubs in Russian Wikipedia which in reality is not the case. You can check that en:Abbasid Caliphate links to ru:Аббасидский халифат and en:Dentistry links to ru:Стоматология (both articles have weighted size more than 10k). Wikidata assignments (d:Q12536, d:Q12128) are overwritten by the interwikis in the English articles. Could the present code be corrected for this? — Ace111 (talk) 22:38, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

Have errors with chinese wiki(zh)(0->68 stubs), korean wiki(ko)(0->45 stubs)and japanese wiki(ja)(0->59 stubs).--Towerman (talk) 03:15, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

It would be possible to get iw-links from enwiki as well. But I'm not sure it's the best thing. I think it's better to base the comparison of a Wikidata item, than on an enwiki article. The problem with the chinese, korean and japanese stubs however seems to be a bug that has to be fixed. Sorry about that. Boivie (talk) 21:33, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

Okey, I found a bug. Boivie (talk) 22:06, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

The official way of using Wikidata is that "existing language links in the wikitext will continue to work and overwrite links from Wikidata" (http://blog.wikimedia.de/2013/03/06/wikidata-now-live-on-all-wikipedias/). So this issue will arise again and again for different Wikipedias unless the bug is fixed. To get interwiki links from enwiki article it necessary to use both Wikidata and corrections in the article itself. — Ace111 (talk) 20:23, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Changing to wikidata items instead of enwiki articles in List of articles every Wikipedia should have

A discussion at List of articles every Wikipedia should have suggested that that page should be based on wikidata items instead of enwiki articles. So I made some changes to the code, and tested the changes. It seems to be working as expected. Boivie (talk) 19:01, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

Ok, thanks I will use it next time. --MarsRover 21:20, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

Question about weight

Hi MarsRover, I don't understand how it works the system of the weight on the list of Wikipedias by sample of articles. Here say that the article architecture has 29,478 bytes, but if we multiply the article size at that moment (27,443 bytes) by Galician weight (1.1) give as result 30,187, not 29,478. Do you know why exist that difference? Regards. --JaviP96 ^{talk me} 20:22, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

The measurement is in characters (not bytes). So, even through wikipedia says its 27,443 bytes, it really is 26,798 characters and translates to 29,478 weighted characters. To figure out the characters you can cut and paste into a word processor like WinWord. Also, the calculation excludes interwiki links and comments from the total character count. --MarsRover 01:59, 18 May 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. I have another question, according to this, weight for gl wiki is 992 characters and for es wiki is 1095 characters, but say that both of them multiply characters of the article by 1.1. Are there some intermediate step? I think there should be, because there are a big difference. --JaviP96 ^{talk me} 18:33, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

I am not sure where "992" came from. I have 1020 characters for the first Galician version and 1041 for the second (eg. cut and paste into Winword and look at the character count including spaces). That is 1.13921568627451 or 1.116234390009606. And we round to one decimal place. --MarsRover 20:42, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

With spaces, Spanish version has more than 1150 characters, you can check here. So 992 should be correct to Galician (if I'm not wrong the weight would be 1.17). About the second version I think that is unreliable, because it even has orthographic mistakes (*construir, *atoparonse, *imo-los). --JaviP96 ^{talk me} 22:10, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

Yes, that 992 sounds correct if you remove the starting and trailing space and then all the leading spaces for each sentence. I am not sure we are 100% consistent with that procedure when calculating other languages. But we did that with English so I guess that should be the standard way we do it. --MarsRover 01:25, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

┌────────────────┘
So Galician weight is 1.17, and should be round it off to 1.2, not to 1.1, isn't it? --JaviP96 ^{talk me} 06:25, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

Yes, that sounds right. But have to wait until next month to do the change. --MarsRover 19:13, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

Don't worry, that's not a problem. Thanks you for all. --JaviP96 ^{talk me} 20:41, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

Growth

Hi MarsRover, this month Galician wiki grows 0.98 as much as zh-yue wiki, but it doesn't appear in the 3rd Place here. What do you do when two wikis have the same growth?

There is other thing more that I have to tell you, some small wikis are cheating, they use an automatic translator to increase the size of theirs articles. In ce wiki ce:User:Simba16 is creating a lot of articles from the list (even 7 on the same day!!) with more or less 60,000 bytes. Here you have some examples: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.

In uz wiki they used (not in this month) a bot to create and increase the size of this articles this articles: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

In my opinion we should do something with these wikis. What do you think? --JaviP96 (talk) 10:22, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

It seems that ce:User:Simba16 translates articles from the Russian Wikipedia. The articles are currenty not large, most of the byte count is from a large untranslated Russian text, which is commented out and anyway not counted by the used script. The Uzbek Wikipedia seems to use the texts from en:National Encyclopedia of Uzbekistan which is also a legal way of extending the articles. -- Ace111 (talk) 22:47, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

Agreed, I don't see anything wrong with ce.wp or uz.wp but I don't know for sure they are using the native language. If you see non-native text (eg. Russian) then comment the text out of the article and it won't be counted in the calculation. --MarsRover 19:14, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

The growth was not exactly equal, the comparison used more decimal places than displyed:

• zh-yue 15.988888888888888888888888888889 - 15.01 = 0.978888888888888888888888888889
• gl 37.266666666666666666666666666667 - 36.29 = 0.976666666666666666666666666667

--MarsRover 19:14, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

About uz. wp I see that they paste all the article in Russian language in them articles, and I don't understand that, and about ce. wp if a bot copy the text from en:National Encyclopedia of Uzbekistan, this text doesn't has any wikipedia format. Probably there are similar Encyclopedias in most languages, if all wikipedias do that, this list will be useless. --JaviP96 (talk) 09:58, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

Adding wiki formatting to existing text is fairly easy, IMHO. You can even have people do that who don't know the language. Copying from an existing encyclopedia is also fine as long as they are not violating copy rights and its the correct language. English WP even copied from an old Encyclopedia Britannica. --MarsRover 20:21, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

Tyva Wikipedia (tyv)

Hello, there is no Tyva Wikipedia (tyv) in the List of Wikipedias by sample of articles. Can you add it and recalculate results in September?--Soul Train (talk) 17:09, 5 October 2013 (UTC)

I tried to add tyv: but the "pywikipedia" framework hasn't been updated yet. So, it just comes up as unknown wiki. --MarsRover 03:28, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

Who can fix this bug? pywikipedia developers?--Soul Train (talk) 07:52, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Article size

Hi MarsRover, I am from Vietnamese Wikipedia, I calculate the size of article (by this template) but it may not give a right number. Last month, I expanded more than 60 articles from stub ones, but only 30 articles were recorded in List of Wikipedias by sample of articles. Could you please explain about it? Thank in advance!--Cheers! (talk) 14:28, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

That template is measuring the article in bytes and not characters. Unfortunately the template syntax is not elaborate enough to get you the exact number in characters. But if you look at the ratio between bytes and characters you can see what number to multiple by to get close.

• Sensory System (735 characters) = 844 bytes = 1.148 bytes per character
• Cholera (29598 characters) = 35404 bytes = 1.196 bytes per character
• Vatican City (28713 characters) = 33711 bytes = 1.174 bytes per character

For example, make sure your Vietnamese articles have more than 12,000 bytes and they will be articles. Also, increase to 36,000 bytes and they will be long articles.

Subpages

Hi! It seems that not all subpages of List of Wikipedias by sample of articles are updated in April. /Growth, /Long Articles etc. are not updated. Yurij Karcev (talk) 17:14, 22 April 2014 (UTC)

I will fix those for the next update. --MarsRover 18:12, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Weight of ba.wiki

Hi, can you change weight of ba.wiki? Bashkir on Cyrillic has 805 characters. -- Регион102 (talk) 04:56, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

I count 824 characters in WinWord statistics. But it is still a 1.4 weight when you round the number. I will move this discussion to the actual page so whoever does the calculation can update the script. --MarsRover 03:16, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

Agree, in WinWord I got the same results - 824. First time I calculated without line numbers. New weight will be 1.4? -- Регион102 (talk) 20:11, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
