Comprehensive? What?
- codingdave 11y agoBillions? What?
- cwyers 11y agoThat's... a very good point.
- TeMPOraL 11y agoSome random Internet stat says there are about 3 billion users on the Internet. It's reasonable to assume that Wikipedia gets used by at 1-2 billion at minimum.
- cwyers 11y agoDaily?
- TeMPOraL 11y agoRight. Reading comprehension failure on my part, sorry :<.
- felipeerias 11y agoNo need to assume: they report having about 400 million unique users per month. https://reportcard.wmflabs.org https://reportcard.wmflabs.org
- a3_nm 11y agohttps://reportcard.wmflabs.org/ https://reportcard.wmflabs.org/ indicates 453M unique visitors in the month of April 2015, so most certainly the claim of "billions of people every day" is wrong by at least one order of magnitude.
