Wikimedia Statistics is not a wiki. It is merely a portal of the Wikimedia Foundation which generates and publishes a wide variety of statistics from over 750 wikis of virtually all Wikimedia projects. Its primary URL is http://stats.wikimedia.org. To quote the headline from its about page – "Enough tables, bar charts and plots to keep you busy for a while" – these are available in 25 different languages; and are produced as either interactive graphs, database dumps, log files, and raw scripts and data. One of the main geeks contributors is a chap called Erik Zachte from The Netherlands (initially from 2003 a volunteer for Wikipedia, and since 2008 part of his job as Data Analyst at the Wikimedia Foundation), and as well as producing all these stats, publishes his own web site and blog too.
