Many [[:Category:Wiki Engine|wiki engines]] (though not all) provide global statistics.  Here is how to find the appropriate [[wikiFactor]] related stats for various wiki engines (although it can also depend on software version used by individual wiki sites).

#[[:Category:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]] — <s>go to the <tt>/Special:PopularPages</tt> page of the wiki – <code><nowiki>http://YourWikiURL.org/Special:PopularPages</nowiki></code></s><br>MediaWiki have, by default, now [[MW:Requests for comment/Removing hit counters from MediaWiki core|removed the page 'Special:PopularPages']] from its core installation.  They now use the RestAPI function instead.  To now produce the data as before, one must install the [[MW:Extension:HitCounters|Extension:HitCounters]]. Many large wikis are not able to have MediaWiki (or an extension) internally generate hit counters as they operate behind a reverse proxy (such as Squid or Varnish) or an external content distribution network (such as Cloudflare) for performance reasons - which means most of the requests never reach the main servers. There are alternatives, but mostly these are site-specific.

#[[:Category:Wikimedia Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] — <tt>/Special:PopularPages</tt> has been unavailable for some time.  The 'Top' sites option at [http://stats.grok.se/ stats.grok.se] can be used for [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedias]], but needs to be summed on a per-month basis.

#[[:Category:Wikia|Wikia]] — originally, this info could be accessed at <tt>Special:Mostvisitedpages</tt> – <code><nowiki>http://YourWikiName.wikia.com/Special:Mostvisitedpages</nowiki></code>, although from September 2011 this tool was removed, and no similar page counter existed for Wikia sites.  Sometime in mid-2012, Wikia reinstated <tt>/Special:Mostvisitedpages</tt>, so this feature became active again. By mid-March 2013 it had gone again, on [http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Mostvisitedpages the Community Central] and at least one big wiki.  There is now no Special:PopularPages; it was replaced by <code>Special:Top/most_visited</code>, which was deprecated in favour of <code>Special:Insights/popularpages</code>.
