2009-2015 data: The page indicates that "Also all ip addresses that occur more than once on a given day are discarded for that day." I don't know of any public data sources where registered/unregistered are explicitly split out. For some countries, you could probably make some reasonable estimates by applying assumptions around which languages are most strongly associated with the country -- e.g., jawiki for Japan: https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/ja.wikipedia.org/contributing/editors/normal|line|2-year|editor_type~anonymous*group-bot*name-bot*user|monthly On Mon, Aug 24, 2020 at 1:34 PM Thomas Stieve <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear Isaac and Su-Laine, > > Thank you for your replies.
