Special:Statistics

I fiddled a bit with a new version of Special:Statistics. It can solve
bug 5619 [0].

Please see the screenshot [1] from my local wiki.

Two points to clarify:

1. Is action=raw [2] still needed? The API do the same job [3]. If the
answer is no, should I depreciate it with an error message and link to
the API or remove it in total?

2. At the moment we have the numbers of sysops in the list. Should we
expand the list to all existing usergroups?

[2] http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spezial:Statistik?action=raw
[3]
http://de.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=statistics


Any suggestions/objections?

Raymond.

Keep it as a backwards-compatibility feature.

I like the mockup. Really cleans up the page and makes it more usable.
Like Victor said, I'd keep action=raw for bc. Adding other groups might
also be a good addition as well (make sure it scales nicely, some wikis
have a *lot* of groups).

Neat! I'd probably recommend breaking up the table a bit to group
related bits of information together.

What I'd *really* love to see would be the ability to show some tables
or graphs of historical data -- showing growth and activity over time.
This could require expanding the site_stats table a bit to store
multiple rows, say rolling over to a new record per-day or something.

But perhaps that's another project... :D

Yes, keep for back compat. :)

Incidentally, I'm working on an extension which implements this as a
side feature.
