Hi, I have a quick question. When measuring a wikis [[Template:Size|size]], do we go by total pages? (I.e. all the talk pages included) or just articles?

I appreciate your feedback and input on the [[LexingtonWiki]]. I am honored that you visited and equally embarrassed that you had difficulty. We recently upgraded to MediaWiki v1.17 and catastrophe befell us. Overnight one night last week we installed the upgrade and spent eight hours attempting to perfect the configuration. When I returned some hours later, I was not permitted to log in. The system rejects me as it did you. As I am unfamiliar with MediaWiki and (to a certain extent) Php, I don't know how to fix it. | I appreciate your feedback and input on the [[LexingtonWiki]].

: WARNING - David, forgive me for butting in - but I need to alert you to the fact that [[User:ScottSchaefer]] is basically a spammer! Virtually all of his [[Special:Contributions/ScottSchaefer|edits here]] on [[WikiIndex]] primarilly contain URLs to his own external sites - including his commercial blog and his commercial site for website design (which also offers SEO optimisation) - they contain NO 'internal' WikiIndex wikilinks. Yes, granted, he has created an entry on here called [[LexingtonWiki]] - but that too (on here) was full of external URLs - primarily relating to his own commercial enterprises, rather than any actual content on his 'wiki'. Finally, looking directly at his LexingtonWiki - it is both plagued by spam (including the usual medications for 'erectile dysfunction'), along with many entries blatantly copied and pasted directly from the [[English Wikipedia]] (presumably to somehow 'boost' his viability of his 'web sites' by inflating his page count).<br>I personally would recommend leaving the [[LexingtonWiki]] article on here (it is afterall a viable wiki - albeit an extremely unethical one!) - but block [[User:ScottSchaefer]] - on the grounds that he tried to use WikiIndex to blatantly peddle spam by subversively inserting non-wiki URLs into a wide range of articles (primarily userpages, sub-userpages, talkpages and images). Just my recommendation - and although I may only be a 'regular editor' (rather than a sysop), I hope you can agree that I have been a trustworthy editor, and one which is making [[:Category:Active contributors to this wiki|an active and positive contribution]] to WikiIndex - by both improving articles, and improving 'housekeeping' of templates, categories and the likes.
