Hi Hassan, In 2008, when the original file format was conceived that fourth column contained 'total bytes transferred'. I have never seen anyone use that number.
So in derivative and aggregated versions that number has been set to zero for a long time. In the third incarnation of this data stream it's still there just to not break client scripts which may expect it.

I have a question about data files available at https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pageviews/ As I understood, in each line, the third column is number of pageviews and the fourth one is its total traffic. But the fourth column is always zero! Did I make a mistake in understanding the meaning of these numbers? For example in line 346 of file https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pageviews/2016/2016-04/projectviews-20160401-060000 we see "en - 4271631 0" which means there were 4271631 views for that project, with zero traffic! Thanks in advance, Hassan _______________________________________________ Analytics mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/analytics _______________________________________________ Analytics mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/analytics
