This was a good feature. Even if it was probably software-intensive.

:{{Mw|Extension:HitCounters}} generates the identical '[[Popular pages]]' output. It was totally re-written (by Mark A. Hershberger, MediaWiki software developer) to prevent the server-intensive loading of the original incarnation. But this replacement HitCounters is not included in the core MediaWiki software - it needs to be installed as a separate extension. | :{{Mw|Extension:HitCounters}} generates the identical '[[Popular pages]]' output.

:::: At the very least, we could use Spiecial:MostLinkedPages to tell different kinds of wikis apart.

:::::Did you want to start a new list article, maybe [[List of wikis by number of most linked-to pages]]? (Note that the [[Special:MostLinkedPages]] here on WikiIndex is broken, along with many other SpecialPages). [[:Category:Lists]] gives a few examples of what we currently report on, but obviously, we could do with more help to output our data! This will also need new Semantic properties creating, along with a new field in either the [[Template:Wiki|Wiki infobox template]], or [[Template:Size|Size stats box template]]. | |||
:::::Are you able to create a bot to pull such data from other sites? If so, a separate bot account ought to be created. | |||
:::::My only caution is that this new list will be a MediaWiki-centric output (which will be fine for use on [[WikiApiary]]), and might not include the many other wiki engines which are in use.
