WikiIndex:Site statistics information — on 2 August 2006, MarkDilley proposed here to have this page here on WikiIndex. It was created in 2014.

Statistics[edit]

What are statistics for? If you got no goal to reach they are meaningless.

Other people keep stats: http://WebNumbr.com/profile?name=http%3A%2F%2Fwikiangela.wordpress.com

It says, amongst other numbers:

  • 320,197 number of active wiki sites on Wikia

How many Wikia sites do we have here on WikiIndex?

  • 20,496

That makes 1/16 or less than 6%. To be more precise, we got:

  • 13,545 pages in category: Wikia; that makes 4.2% of all existing Wikia wiki sites are listed here;
  • 28 pages in category: Wikkii; that makes 1.07% of all formerly 3,000+ existing Wikkii wiki sites are listed here.

And that is about wiki sites that are/where easy to find because we got the address of the wiki farms Calculating this in reverse, we shall have:

  • Worldwide more than 760,000 wiki sites, of which we got less than 2.6%, 20,000 on page; and wikisphere is growing rapidly;
  • How will we gain any significance at our current speed? Never!

Statistics show that our significance is only imagined or hoped or 'envisioned'; it is not real.

Wikipedia grew more significant than Encyclopaedia Britannica.

On German and English Wikipedia there is not even a page about us.

Wiki farms and our coverage[edit]

Quality of article pages on WikiIndex[edit]

The quality of our wiki article pages is much more difficult to measure and to turn into numbers. It would require a vast amount of time to do that. But as a starting point, it can be said, that amongst the 20,793 pages in the namespace at October 2016, 13,596 of them are in the category: Wikis to add. This means, for the most part, that the wiki page contains two specific items of information:

  • URL of the wiki site, and,
  • the template {{Add}}

Most of those article pages remain unchanged since 2006, and their only purpose is to increase the number of pages in the main namespace. They can only be found by people who already know the name of the wiki. And people who know the name, do not need the service of WikiIndex. They will be faster by using Google. Also, not all pages with no useful information on it contain the template {{Add}}. Therefore the actual number of useless pages is higher. Anyway, the actual number of wiki pages here is lower than 7,197 = <Pages in namespace> - <wikis to be add> - <wiki-people-pages and others>. Therefore, the above estimations about our coverage of the Wikisphere need to be divided by 3.

So, WikiIndex got 1% of the Wikisphere covered by possibly useful entries after a working period of 10 years.
