Need the Potentia Media page back. I am trying to make it what it was listed as

11:11, 30 December 2007 Henrik (Talk | contribs) deleted "Potentia Media" ‎ (It is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article. (CSD G11))

Need the Potentia Media page back. I am trying to make it what it was listed as. A bit of help for Charity would be nice. It's not a business, it's a charity. Below is an email I just got in. I represent at 503C3, Sisters in the Building Trades. My e-mail is shyeshye@aol.com I have no idea how to use this site other than to read it. So a bit of help would be nice. Lots of work trying to change the world on a shoe string. Help is appreciated. It was a good article, just a few points that needed to be made real, and I was working on that as you will see below. Explaining a charity and what it does is not a bad thing. And all 3 charity's involved in this request are easily varifiable. Great site. First time I have had an issue. Thanks for your work. It is appreciated.

Dear Melina,

Thank you for writing to us and for the wonderful work that you do! Yes, Potentia media is a beautiful project and unfortunately, we dont have a partnership with them. As you can see on Potentia's web site, they currently partner with CARE. However, we are talking to them about potentially partnering with them and should that happen, we would mutually feature links to each other's web sites.

I tried to look up the wikipedia entry where Potentia mentions they partner with the Global Fund but was unable to find it - can you please send me the link?

Also, considering the wonderful work you do with Sisters in the Building Trades, Id like to quickly mention one of our grantee partners in Nicaragua that works to train women in unconventional trades like building, carpentry and so on - do check them out at www.mujeresconstructoras.org

Thank you so much for writing to us,

Warmly,

Preeti

Misplaced Pages web statistics

hi,

i am a researcher at Inria in France. I am doing a research over the domain name system and, in order to validate the results of my research, i would need real web statistics from a range of different websites with different users numbers. So i figured that wikipedia would be perfect, since you have multiple domains, e.g. en.wikipedia.org, it.wikipedia.org, with a broad range of hits. Given the open nature of wikipedia, shown in projects like yours at stats.grok.se, i was wondering if you could help me to find this kind of information regarding wikipedia.

Thank you My email address is: perito@inrialpes.fr

Misplaced Pages article traffic statistics

When will there be a stats of July? 217.233.246.114 (talk) 19:25, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

... and of August? --Hans-Jürgen Hübner (talk) 15:55, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

add Wikiprojects to stats site?

I'd also like to echo the positive feedback to your site. Very nice to know what is popular. Any chance we could have a function which indicates popularity of individual articles when you select down to a Wikiproject (i.e. Wikiproject Birds). Most articles have been assessed. We could then know what people are reading in our respective areas of expertise..... Pvmoutside (talk) 18:51, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

I will do those analyses for you in some days. --- Greetings, Melancholie (talk) 01:48, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Stats tool for page views

The stats tool stopped working for counts on pages after June 2008. The drop down menus extends to June 2008 and no later.

Yes I was just about to ask about this as well. Hello, may I find out when this will be updated or if there is another place to go. It was quite interesting to creat something and then see how many people are viewing it. It kind of makes it worth while knowing that someone is reading your material. Adam (talk) 03:29, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Ditto - make that thank you very much - Smallbones (talk) 05:19, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Direct input URL does work?

Drop down list ended with 200806, June 2008. I have made new article EcoCute on 14:58, 10 July 2008.
Direct input "http://stats.grok.se/en/200807/article" manually, example http://stats.grok.se/en/200807/EcoCute shows only 10, 11 12th traffic in July. It is hard to believe that no one see EcoCute from 13th July. http://stats.grok.se/en/200807/Obama also zero traffic since 13th July. It's obviously something wrong from 13th July. Is such direct input of URL with "YYYYMM/article" correct method ?--Namazu-tron (talk) 02:15, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

nice tool for vandals

thanks. HA! HA! HA! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.122.250.142 (talk) 12:25, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Norwegian

Hi! I love the stats tool. But there are two Norwegian wikipedias, and you have stats for just the bigger one. They are:

• Norwegian (nynorsk) nn
• Norwegian (bokmål) nb or no

Thanks! --Hordaland (talk) 09:33, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Ooops, sorry. "Norwegian (nynorsk)" is also on the list. The one called just "Norwegian" should be "Norwegian (bokmål)". Thanks. --Hordaland (talk) 09:37, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Access to data

Hello, Henrik. Hope you have a good vacation! There's no rush for answers to this. First please let me add my thanks to the pile for your page view tool. This thank you is long overdue. Can you please tell me where to find either Misplaced Pages server logs or part of their data? Also can you tell me who has access to them? I had thought I read somewhere on meta that only one class of user or maybe it was employees of Wikimedia have access to the logs--on "System administrators" it says any "Wikimedia system administrators" has access. I assume that means only the persons listed and not admins on daughter projects? (As background, I looked around a bit, found your tool runs through 30 June (200806) as of today. Data for the English Misplaced Pages is dated "(!!Oct 2006!!)" on Misplaced Pages Statistics site map which links to "database dump" which is 404 not found. Thus these two questions.) Best wishes. -SusanLesch (talk) 18:49, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

The data comes from http://dammit.lt/wikistats/ 199.125.109.65 (talk) 15:39, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Great. I will try to look around and ask User:Midom who seems to own that domain as well as be a Wikimedia system administrator. Thank you! -SusanLesch (talk) 19:12, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Please hurry back from your vacation. The tool only goes as far as the end of June and I can't get my page hitcount fix! Gatoclass (talk) 05:18, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

He may not be coming back

He put up that vacation box (at top of page) July 1st folks. I wish I could take a long vacation. I bet he isn't coming back and so probably that is the end of the tool Chrisgj (talk) 00:49, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Individual Page Stats for South Ossetia War

Dear Henrik,

Hi.

I am working on page usage of wikipedia as part of an academic research project on media and war. I was wondering whether I could stats on the page dedicated to the South Ossetia war - http://en.wikipedia.org/2008_South_Ossetia_War. I want to track these stats on a hourly basis if possible over the course of the month of August 2008. Any help would be gratefully received! Biologylessons (talk) 15:10, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Biologylessons, if you ever hear back from Henrik about the stats for the 2008 South Ossetia war article, I'd love to know - I'm also extremely interested in taking a look at the page view metrics of this article! It boggles my mind that a page view counter isn't enabled for Misplaced Pages - we're running MediaWiki at work (an older version, no less!!), and the number of page views shows at the bottom of every page, plus we can look at weekly/monthly reports - clearly the capability is built into the software, but just as clearly, Misplaced Pages chooses not to make this information public - fie upon them!!! Akindofmagick (talk) 19:45, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

I will do that individual analysis for you! Starting with August 7. Will take two days before there are the first results, is that ok? --- Best regards, Melancholie (talk) 20:37, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

First day: 2008 South Ossetia war (protagonists (day before)); not yet interesting, event not yet resounded throughout the land on 2008-08-07... --Melancholie (talk) 20:56, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Stats tool

Looks like I have nothing new to say, but:

1. Your stats tool is AWESOME
2. It would be nice if it could have data for after June. -Oreo Priest 20:30, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Stats.grok.se problem

When the page is initialized, the month selected is May instead of July, and URL hacking for the current month doesn't work anymore. Could you please fix the page to be up-to-date? And don't remove the possibility to view stats for the current month by URL hacking, please. :-) Admiral Norton 23:16, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

In it.wiki, the month selected by default in Stats.grok.se is December 2007; July and August are not selectable, because unavailable in the list. Same request to above :-) Bye! --Roberto Segnali all'Indiano 04:33, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Same request as above. Also, the July stats stop at about the 11th or 12th of July. Coincidently (???), this is August 13th. Perhaps the dates are a month off? davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 00:27, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Henrik, please come home!! We neeeedd you to fix the stats.grok.se counter!!!! Akindofmagick (talk) 19:25, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Anyone fluent in Python who can fix the stats tool?

There is a script in the raw data for the stats tool. Anyone with the skill care to look at it and try fixing it and running it on your own web site? davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 00:33, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

The script you mean is not one of Henrik's; and it does not work properly (respectively it only works at the data source itself). I could extend my analyses to the functionality of stats.grok.se, but actually I still hope that Henrik will come back (by now even hoping that nothing bad happened to him during vacation)! --- Best regards, Melancholie (talk) 11:58, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

I agree Melancholie - I'm concerned, too. But the Wikimedia blog seems to give some indication that Erik Zachte] will start to keep page view stats, so there's hope no that front. Besides that - Henrik, where are you? Drop a line and let us know you are okay. --David Shankbone 20:45, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

I blogged about you and the stats tool

Henrik, I blogged about your stats tool and the introduction of a page hits by Wikimedia. --David Shankbone 19:06, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

hallo henrik, is it possible to update this very interesting tool? (there is no july and august) thanks --62.143.249.236 (talk) 06:43, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Come on people READ these discussions before posting!

Read these discussions and you'll see over the last 8 weeks, at least a 9 people asking Henrik to update the statistics. If you read these discussions, you'll learn that Henrik is on a very long vacation and someone recently hired is supposed to get the statistics working again soon. Please, enough is enough already! Chrisgj (talk) 06:23, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Would Henrik be OK if we put a notice box at the top of this page to explain the situation? That would help at least those users who can read. I must admit, I check pretty regularly to see if the tool is up again. It's all about me! :) Franamax (talk) 22:59, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

live edit counter

Can you please fix the {{User:Henrik/ubx/User contrib}} userbox? It's no longer showing live edit counts. Thanks. --Closedmouth (talk) 13:44, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
