{{wiki project|Size}}{{TOC right}}

'''WikiIndex:WikiProject - By Size''' — this [[:Category:Wiki project|project]] aims to add [[:Category:Wiki Size|size]] categorization to {{tag|WikiIndex}}.  This page is where we will develop the internal categorization scheme, as well as where we will share what we know about how to get size information from wikis running on various [[:Category:Wiki engine|wiki engines]].  Please jump in and help!

According to the [https://WikiIndex.org/index.php?title=Talk:WikiProject:By_Size&diff=prev&oldid=41366 discussion contribution of] [[Special:Contributions/69.87.199.67|user:69.87.199.67]], I think, we should establish a way for auto-categorisation of size in certain way(s):

*Wiki with 201 to 500 pages

  pages= 349 (in our [[Template:Size|Size template]])

in the [[template:Size]], the date can be obtained by

  <nowiki>{{CURRENTTIMESTAMP}}</nowiki> // ({{CURRENTTIMESTAMP}}) [https://www.MediaWiki.org/wiki/Help:Magic_words#Date_and_time]

Using the {{WMF-Meta|Help:Extension:ParserFunctions|parser functions}} extension <tt>#if</tt> or <tt>#switch</tt>, size and size categorization time could be auto-categorized for maintenance. --[[Wolf Peuker|Wolf]] | <small>[[User talk:Peu|talk]]</small> 14:11, 21 February 2007 (PST)

We now have a new mechanism of categorization of [[wiki]] sites by [[:Category:Wiki Size|size]].  The [[Template:Size|size template]] has a new field parameter – <code>pages=</code> – which should be used to set the actual 'good' page count (ie, not stubs, redirects, talk pages, etc).  The original 'wiki_size' field parameter is now obsolete.

The size [[Special:Categories|categories]] have also moved; the original categories will initially be transformed into [[redirect]]s.  In the following list, categories that have already emptied are striked out; and once they are emptied, will be deleted (and will therefore appear as [[red link]]s if they were to be repopulated) to avoid any future misuse:

 

<s>Category:Wiki Size (old style)</s> → [[:Category:Wiki Size]]

*Wikis with unknown size — '''U'''

**<s>Category:YourWikiSize</s> → [[:Category:Unknown size]] – the wiki size was not entered yet

**[[:Category:No realtime statistics]] – 'esoteric', the wiki engine provides no real time statistics (that we can determine)

*Small wikis — '''S'''

**<s>Category:Empty</s> → [[:Category:Empty wiki]] – ie, 0 pages

**<s>Category:MoreThan100</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 101 to 200 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan200</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 201 to 500 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan500</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 501 to 1,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan1000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 1,001 to 2,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan2000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 2,001 to 5,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan5000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 5,001 to 10,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan10000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 10,001 to 20,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan20000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 20,001 to 50,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan50000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 50,001 to 100,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan100000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 100,001 to 200,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan200000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 200,001 to 500,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan500000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 500,001 to 1,000,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan1000000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 1,000,001 to 2,000,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan2000000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 2,000,001 to 5,000,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan5000000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 5,000,001 to 10,000,000 pages]]

**<s>Category:MoreThan1000000</s> → [[:Category:Wiki with 10,000,001 to 100,000,000 pages]]

**and a new top-level category — [[:Category:Wiki with more than 100,000,000 pages]]

===size classes===

:'''L''' — Large

:'''M''' — Medium

:'''S''' — Small

:'''U''' — Unknown

According to the following size-class-independent ordering scheme, the size classes can be changed easily.

;where ''letter'' depends on the most significant digit of ''lower_bound_page_count'':

==[[:Category:Templates|Templates]]==

===Size data===

We now have [[template:Size]].  Its draft boilerplate was on its [[Template talk:Size|talk page]].  Please add it to the bottom of a couple wiki entry pages to see if it works.  We still need to figure out the categorization issues.
