Day 4 of 14 is over, and the English page about Australia at the Paralympics has received 20729 pageviews in the last 30 days.
http://stats.grok.se/en/latest/Australia_at_the_2012_Summer_Paralympics So far Australia has a page in German and French: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorlage:Navigationsleiste_Teilnehmer_Sommer-Paralympics_2012 https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australie_aux_Jeux_paralympiques_d%27%C3%A9t%C3%A9_de_2012 By size of Wikipedia, the next languages to be translated into are Dutch, Italian, Polish, Spanish, then Russian, Japanese, Portuguese, Chinese and Swedish. I think Chinese and Russian should be our primary focus. It would be good to have a Chinese language Wikipedia page as China is leading the medal table, as they did for the Olypmpics, so this presents a unique opportunity for Chinese Wikipedia to have the information that Chinese speakers are looking for. The Chinese Olympics page received 94184 pageviews in July and 97069 in August. Sadly, the main Chinese page for the Paralympics has received ~640 pageviews in the last 30 days. http://stats.grok.se/zh/latest30/2012%E5%B9%B4%E5%A4%8F%E5%AD%A3%E6%AE%8B%E7%96%BE%E4%BA%BA%E5%A5%A5%E6%9E%97%E5%8C%B9%E5%85%8B%E8%BF%90%E5%8A%A8%E4%BC%9A And they only have articles written for three Chinese speaking countries. https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:NPCin2012SummerParalympics According to the census, Chinese is one of the most important languages in Australia other than English. The Chinese page about Australia at the Olympics received ~640 pageviews for July and August. http://stats.grok.se/zh/latest30/2012%E5%B9%B4%E5%A4%8F%E5%AD%A3%E5%A5%A5%E6%9E%97%E5%8C%B9%E5%85%8B%E8%BF%90%E5%8A%A8%E4%BC%9A A Russian and Ukrainian page about Australia and Ukraine would also help, as the Ukraine is coming fourth in the medal tally (and most Ukraine citizens know Russian). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukraine_at_the_2012_Summer_Paralympics p.s. The quickest way to find <nation> at Paralympics in <language> is to start at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Nations_at_the_2012_Summer_Paralympics And follow the interwikis on the category, or navigate to the English page about the nation and see if it has an interwiki. (e.g. Italian Wikipedia doesnt have a category, as it has only one article about a nation https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italia_ai_XIV_Giochi_paralimpici_estivi ) Japanese and Swedish Wikipedias don't have an article about any nation. -- John Vandenberg _______________________________________________ Wikimediaau-l mailing list Wikimediaau-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaau-l
