WikiIndex:WikiProject - By Size
This project aims to add size categorization to WikiIndex. The page is where we'll develop the internal categorization scheme as well as where we'll share what we know about how to get size information from wikis running on various engines. Please jump in and help!
Categorization by Size - Reloaded
According to the discussion contribution of 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
by typing
wiki_size=349
in the Template:Size, the date can be obtained by
{{CURRENTTIMESTAMP}} // (20241225171248) [1]
or similar (year-month-day). Using the parser funcions extension #if or #switch, size and size categorization time could be auto-categorized for maintainance. --Wolf | talk 14:11, 21 February 2007 (PST)
Categorization scheme
Now we have a new mechanism of caterorization von wikis by size. the size template has a new parameter wiki_pages the should be set to the page count, the wiki_size parameter is obsolete now. The size categories are moving now (i stroke moved (emptied) categories):
Category:Wiki Size (old style) → Category:Wiki Size
- Wikis with unknown size U
- uncategorized jet
- Category:UnknownSize (it's well-known that the size is unknown)
- Category:No realtime statistics
- Small wikis S
- (Category:Empty → [[:Category:Template:Empty]])
- Category:LessThan10 → [[:Category:Template:LessThan10]]
- Category:MoreThan10 → [[:Category:Template:MoreThan10]]
- Category:MoreThan20 → [[:Category:Template:MoreThan20]]
- Category:MoreThan50 → [[:Category:Template:MoreThan50]]
- Medium wikis M
- Category:MoreThan100 → [[:Category:Template:MoreThan100]]
- Category:MoreThan200 → [[:Category:Template:MoreThan200]]
- Category:MoreThan500 → [[:Category:Template:MoreThan500]]
- Category:MoreThan1000 → [[:Category:Template:MoreThan1000]]
- Category:MoreThan2000 → [[:Category:Template:MoreThan2000]]
- Category:MoreThan5000 → [[:Category:Template:MoreThan5000]]
- Large wikis L
Category:MoreThan10000→ [[:Category:Template:MoreThan10000]]Category:MoreThan20000→ [[:Category:Template:MoreThan20000]]Category:MoreThan50000→ [[:Category:Template:MoreThan50000]]Category:MoreThan100000→ [[:Category:Template:MoreThan100000]]Category:MoreThan200000→ [[:Category:Template:MoreThan200000]]Category:MoreThan500000→ [[:Category:Template:MoreThan500000]]Category:MoreThan1000000→ [[:Category:Template:MoreThan1000000]]Category:MoreThan2000000→ [[:Category:Template:MoreThan2000000]]Category:MoreThan5000000→ [[:Category:Template:MoreThan5000000]]
"size classes"
The size classes are for better orientation against zero blindness.
- L
- Large
- M
- Medium
- S
- Small
- U
- Unknown
According to the following size-class-independend ordering scheme the size classes can be changed easily.
subcategory ordering scheme
- category name
- "MoreThen" + digit + n x "0"
- category order
- n x "0" + letter
- where letter is
- A if digit is 5
- B if digit is 2
- C if digit is 1
new template
We now have Template:Size. It's draft boilerplate is on it's 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. TedErnst | talk 12:22, 9 Mar 2006 (EST)
How to get size information
Most wiki engines provide statistics somewhere including a page count. Here's how to find them for various wiki engines (although it can also depend on version)
- MediaWiki: Replace Special:Recentchanges with Special:Statistics
- We can also add MediaWiki listings to the http://s23.org/wikistats/mediawikis_html.php system which tracks various wiki stats
- MoinMoin: Replace RecentChanges with SystemInfo or System_Info
- UseModWiki: Replace ?RecentChanges with ?action=index
- PhpWiki:
- ProWiki: Replace ?RecentChanges with ?action=spx
- PmWiki: Search for / and scroll to the bottom (maybe searching for main/ would be better)
- Tikiwiki: Replace ending /tiki-lastchanges.php with /tiki-stats.php
- Twiki: Replace /WebChanges with /WebIndex
- Oddmuse: In RecentChanges click on 1 day and replace ?action=rc;days=1;all=0;showedit=0 with ?action=index
