Edit Peaks in April & May

We have peak number of edits in April and May every year. Any reason for that? Meg Ireland 14:15, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

Maybe Eduzendium activities? Otherwise, no big idea (and remember, "lies, damn lies and statistics" :)) Aleksander Stos 14:30, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

Any chance of more recent progress in time?

It appears they end in October 2008. Howard C. Berkowitz 18:24, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

October 2008, indeed. Short answer is, well, yes, I should try it. A longer story is that at some point article listings in the categories on the wiki became quite incomplete. This resulted in inconsistencies in stats so that I had to stop. Now, I've just checked and it seems that the listings agree with article counts (so it should work). Aleksander Stos 19:40, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
It certainly would be reasonable to show a "data loss" in the graphs. Howard C. Berkowitz 20:09, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

Wot? Wat!

Sending a quick ‘hello’ out to all of you who wanted a weekend write-a-thon. Also, a nudge, push, and a shove to all those who haven’t made it out in a while. This Sunday, 10th January, is your Big Chance. Party theme is ‘stubs’. Now, what could be easier? Write about anything you want!
