:::I agree. That is a downside to Analytics - I've been looking at ways to make data from there more public, perhaps with a special page of its own or using the new "extra statistics" hook added in 1.16, but it requires a fair bit of coding because of the way they handle accounts (it's biased towards firms that want to offer access to customers' accounts, so it's needlessly complex for generating custom reports for your own site). We had over 30 million pageviews in total while at Wikia, which may seem surprising until you consider our coverage includes numerous articles on popular pornography artists and their works, as well as related websites. Thankfully we do not host the works ''themselves'', otherwise our bandwidth bill would go through the roof, but I've already [http://community.livejournal.com/wikifur/81592.html had to do micro-optimizations] on [http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Softpaw_Magaizine a few] [http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/High_Tail_Hall pages].

Hi Green Reaper, | |||
Wikiindex deals also about wiki people, that's why have personal pages in the main namespace. As you know, the MediaWiki software provides notifications about changes in your user talk page, now this service gets not active if somebody wants to contact you on [[Talk:GreenReaper]]. Our cross-linking is quite easy: Two pairs of pages, one in the main namespace and the corresponding one in the user namespace were bound thus: add two redirects, | |||
* [[User:GreenReaper]] → [[GreenReaper]] and | |||
* [[Talk:GreenReaper]] → [[User talk:GreenReaper]] | |||
Think about adding a link to the tool functions like ''User contributions'' or ''E-mail this user'' by hand on your page in the article space. | |||
I made an demonstration image, for the case my English isn't clear enough. | |||
