[07:57:52] <ravidreams>	 Hi, we are seeing sudden decline in article count in many Wikipedias?
[07:57:58] <ravidreams>	 Any explanation?
[07:59:20] <Nemo_bis>	 the count was wrong and has been fixed
[07:59:34] <Nemo_bis>	 Always use stats.wikimedia.org for correct information
[08:04:52] <ravidreams>	 Thanks, Nemo
[08:05:36] <ravidreams>	 basd on Wikipedia dumps
[08:05:42] <ravidreams>	 well, we track daily stats at https://ta.wikipedia.org/wiki/விக்கிப்பீடியா:Statistics/March_2015
[08:05:43] <ravidreams>	 so far it has been consistent with stats released at 
[08:05:43] <ravidreams>	 http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/TablesWikipediaTA.htm
[08:06:41] <ravidreams>	 Has this fix been explained somewhere? We would like to understand if it is some internal issue in calculating or if they have changed the minimum article size or something
[08:15:34] <Krenair>	 Nemo_bis, ^
[08:24:28] <Nemo_bis>	 ravidreams: there was no change and I see no current issue.
[08:26:45] <ravidreams>	 Nemo_bis: Hindi registered 3K decline yesterday
[08:26:47] <ravidreams>	 https://hi.wikipedia.org/wiki/विशेष:Statistics
[08:26:53] <ravidreams>	 says 103K articles 
[08:27:06] <ravidreams>	 whereas stats for last month shows 106K
[08:27:08] <ravidreams>	 http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/TablesWikipediaHI.htm
[08:27:16] <ravidreams>	 I could see the pattern in every wiki I checked
[08:29:51] <Nemo_bis>	 ravidreams: yes, there was a change in Special:Statistics. That's the point. Had the counts been correct, we wouldn't have udpated them.
[08:30:31] <Nemo_bis>	 Also, it was a 4k decrease, not a 3k decrease. https://wikiapiary.com/wiki/Wikipedia_%28hi%29
[08:30:47] <Nemo_bis>	 Which shows you Special:Statistics didn't agree with WikiStats before either.
[08:31:44] <ravidreams>	 OK then, where can I read more about this update? I can pass it to the communities that ask about this change

[14:11:21] <hoo>	 Nemo_bis: Mozilla's wiki, right?
[14:11:25] <hoo>	 saw that yesterday
[14:13:50] <hoo>	 Nemo_bis: https://github.com/christi3k/ImportFromEtherpad The code would need quite some love to get deployed on WMF sites
[14:13:58] <hoo>	 also it needs the "pandoc" package
[14:16:49] <Nemo_bis>	 Yes, that's where I saw the notice
