Michael, Thanks! Your solution solves a different problem than I was looking for (list of page views of each article over time per a WikiProject), but having a comprehensive list of the pages under WikiProject_Seattle will undoubtedly be useful as well. Heck, I am tempted to install ActivePerl on my PC (used to have it on an earlier PC & also had access to a couple of Macs) to write a Perl script to convert the results into a .csv file to load it into Excel or the Libre Office equivalent.
Kudos to you & the UW iSchool.
