'''Wikiscan''', located at <tt>https://Wikiscan.org</tt>, is a website which produces and displays independent {{tag|statistics}} on {{tag|Wikipedia}} and other [[WhatIsWiki|wikis]] hosted by the {{tag|Wikimedia Foundation}} (WMF).  Wikiscan was created in {{tag|FoundedIn2011|2011}}, and is hosted on the servers of [[Wikimedia France]].  As of August 2018, Wikiscan generates statistics from 362 separate wiki sites of the WMF.


The Wikiscan software source code is made available under {{tag|GNU General Public License|GNU General Public License version 2}} (GPL v2), and the two latest versions of Wikiscan can be downloaded from the [https://Wikiscan.org/?menu=about Wikiscan about page].  The displayed content generated by Wikiscan (except its logo) is published under the [[:Category:Wiki Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike|Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 (deed France)]] (CC BY-SA 3.0/fr).  It uses public data made freely available from the relevant [[MediaWiki API]] for each individual wiki, together with [https://Dumps.Wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-ez/ pageview files] from [[Wikistats]] to generate pictorial graphs of statistics.

Individual reports of Wikiscan outputs are located at sub-domains of <tt><nowiki>https://Wikiscan.org</nowiki></tt>.  Being as Wikiscan primarily concentrates on the various [[:Category:Wiki Language|language]] versions of Wikipedia, the Wikiscan URLs mirror the individual language abbreviation for the Wikiscan sub-domain identifier; for example, the Wikiscan URL for the [[English Wikipedia]] is <tt><nowiki>https://en.Wikiscan.org</nowiki></tt>, the [[Norsk Wikipedia|Norwegian Wikipedia]] Wikiscan URL is <tt><nowiki>https://no.Wikiscan.org</nowiki></tt>, the [[Chinese Wikipedia]] Wikiscan URL is <tt><nowiki>https://zh.Wikiscan.org</nowiki></tt>, etc.  Other Wikimedia Foundation project wikis are configured with their language abbreviation merged in front of their project name; so the [[English Wiktionary]] is found at <tt><nowiki>https://enwiktionary.Wikiscan.org</nowiki></tt>, the [[English Wikiversity]] is at <tt><nowiki>https://enwikiversity.Wikiscan.org</nowiki></tt>, the [[Wikibooks (English)|English Wikibooks]] is located at <tt><nowiki>https://enwikibooks.Wikiscan.org</nowiki></tt>, [[English Wikisource]] is at <tt><nowiki>https://enwikisource.Wikiscan.org</nowiki></tt>, and [[English Wikinews]] will be found at <tt><nowiki>https://enwikinews.Wikiscan.org</nowiki></tt>.  The other language versions of the various projects mirror the English examples, but the notable exceptions are the multilingual wikis; [[Wikimedia Commons]] is found at <tt><nowiki>https://commons.Wikiscan.org</nowiki></tt>, whereas [[Wikimedia Wikidata]] is found at <tt><nowiki>https://wikidata.Wikiscan.org</nowiki></tt>, and so on.
