I didn't know wikipedia page view counters are available for public usage. The wikipediatrend R package relies on http://stats.grok.se/ http://stats.grok.se/, which in turn relies on https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-raw/ https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-raw/ which has been deprecated. The new dump is located at https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pageviews/ https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pageviews/ Data is available in hourly intervals. * pageviews-20170227-050000 en Peyton_Manning 58 0 [edit] There is a wikipedia-hosted OSS viewer for these logs, e.g. Swedish crime stats: https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&range=latest-90&pages=Crime_in_Sweden https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.or...

Cool! I wonder what spiked the views for artificial intelligence on 10/11/2016? https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&start=2015-07-01&end=2017-01-31&pages=Artificial_intelligence https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.or...

  I think that spike peaks on October 12, which is when this was released: https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/blog/2016/10/12/administrations-report-future-artificial-intelligence https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/blog/2016/10/12/adminis...

  the wiki page is about Java the country, not the programming language. Haven't found any relevant news around that time though.

    Indeed, that's why I used "Java (programming language)".

BigQuery also has the public dataset of Wikipedia page views. Handy for quick SQL and sampling. An intro by Felipe Hoffa (Google): https://www.reddit.com/r/bigquery/comments/3dg9le/analyzing_50_billion_wikipedia_pageviews_in_5/ https://www.reddit.com/r/bigquery/comments/3dg9le/analyzing_...

The Wikimedia foundation provides an public page view API for most Wikimedia projects: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Analytics/PageviewAPI https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Analytics/PageviewAPI

  Thanks, that's a good resource. I'm surprised though. It seems that Top-1000 articles by monthly views are 90% about celebrities and movies. I think tags or categories would be most useful. https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/metrics/pageviews/top/en.wikipedia/all-access/2017/01/all-days https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/metrics/pageviews/top/en.w...
