A drop down for 280 Wikipedia's would be somewhat hard to navigate. What about a front page with all major projects (Commons,Wikibooks,Wikinews,Wikipedia,Wikiquote,Wikisource,Wikiversity,Wikti onary,Other projects) sorted by name or total requests in the past hour, each linking to an overview page for one project. On that second page (or below that first list) you could list all languages for that project, sortable by name or by total requests in the past hour, each linking to a page like you have now. Instead of a long sortable table you could have a swappable index, like e.g. http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/PlotsPngEditHistoryAll.htm Erik -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ed Summers Sent: Tuesday, February 21, 2012 6:01 PM To: Research into Wikimedia content and communities Subject: Re: [Wiki-research-l] wikitrends Yes, this is clearly something that needs to be done :-) Would it be best to have a drop down that lets you select the project?
