Is this true

How accuarate is this report? Just wondering because I see that Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada shows only 1,000 edits to its 108,861 articles in the last 365 days. XOttawahitech (talk) 23:16, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This report shows activity of the WikiProject itself, not activity on the articles of that project. In other words, those 1 000 edits are to pages whose name starts with Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada/. User<Svick>.Talk(); 16:48, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

DAB WikiProject

Wikipedia:WikiProject Congo is a DAB, referring to either Wikipedia:WikiProject Democratic Republic of the Congo or Wikipedia:WikiProject Republic of the Congo. There are probably more; this was the first I saw after sorting by name.

Why no longer active

I have found this list very useful in identifying the most active WikiProjects for invitations to editathons, etc. Is anyone else interested in having it maintained?--Ipigott (talk) 10:26, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I second that opinion. Grey Wanderer (talk) 00:50, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Presentation seems backwards

I have been using {{Database report}} to produce useful reports in a WikiProject for a long while, and this has really propelled this WikiProject up the list. But this was never my intention. Also, the idea that bots aren't excluded from the main ranking doesn't seem to do what the report is designed for - to demonstrate user activity within a WikiProject. My suggestion here is to make "Edits excl. bots" the primary ranking column, and "Edits incl. bots" a column one can alternatively sort by. Thank you for your consideration. Stefen 𝕋owers among the rest! GabGruntwerk 03:51, 14 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
