I'm working on brushing up an existing page, and will be putting it forward twice as a non-bold link in DYKs connected to stubs I am going to improve. It made me wonder whether there is a way to work out the page that has featured most in DYK, and how many times it has appeared? DrThneed ( talk) 01:48, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
According to the "here's how" link in the DYK notification sent to talk pages, hooks that get over 20,000 clicks are eligible "to be listed among the all-time leaders". Since the page Ida Hunt Udall received 24,003 views (1,000.1 per hour), I thought that meant it would be appropriate to follow that instruction and add it to the appropriate page. However, the wiki link to "all-time leaders" just leads to the main Did You Know Statistics project page. Where would one add pages that get over 20,000 clicks? The all-time DYK pageview leaders project page states hooks must receive over 25,000 views, not 20,000. Is that a typo? Or has the requirement been raised? And what precisely is the requirement? 20,000 and 25,000 are both different from the 800 views per hour (which would be 19,200 in 24 hours).
Apologies for any trouble; just looking for some clarification. Many thanks to all y'all who maintain the statistics. P-Makoto ( talk) 04:33, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
I noticed a reported error on the July 2019 page due to a subsequent page move (the article's current title was 'unoccupied' at the time the hook ran, so pageview stats could not be found), and fixed it. This involves one of my hooks from a couple years back, if anyone wants to check my work. ( diff, pageviews link) – Reidgreg ( talk) 14:12, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
I had a DYK posted yesterday and so was just following up the number of views. Some points arising:
1. The number of views for the day is not the same as the number recorded automatically at WP:DYKSTATS. The latter was 7,898 while the pageviews link was 7,919. Is there some adjustment for the half-day slot or what?
2. I added the number to the {{ DYK talk}} template on the article talk page using its views parameter. It would be a time-saver if this was done automatically.
3. I wanted to make a similar update to the notification on my talk page as I like to keep a record. What's especially puzzling is that the notification doesn't use specific template like {{ DYK talk}}. Instead, the user notification is made from more basic components like {{ ivmbox}}. Why is there not a version of {{ DYK talk}} designed for user talk pages?
I've discussed this before with @ Theleekycauldron and Cielquiparle: but others may be interested too, please.
