Yeah, that's been some of my thoughts too.Then I quit! This is why Wikipedia is failing/no one uses it anymore etc etc) and partially because, some decline is normal once all the low hanging fruit type articles are created ( Railroad station article output is bound to decline once we've written articles on all existing railroad stations, etc.) Sergecross73 msg me 15:53, 26 April 2018 (UTC) Reply Partially because it seems like its always being cited by people who are crying about not getting their way ( What do you mean I can't write a personal essay about all 200 characters that appear across Ocarina of Time. I personally don't usually buy into all the panic/worry about "Wikipedia is on the decline". The rates will always get slower, as there is less historically notable subjects to add to wikipedia. This WikiProject seems to have a significant amount of high quality articles. Pres N 15:39, 26 April 2018 (UTC) Reply I'm not the biggest fan of the articles on how Wikipedia is failing. Nomader ( talk) 14:21, 26 April 2018 (UTC) Reply Whoops, yes, it's GA+A class and FA+FL class all the way across. czar 14:57, 29 April 2018 (UTC) Reply Quick question here- does "FA" refer to FL/FA in this case? I'm noticing that the FA/FL seems to add up with the ΔFA column pretty nicely. Anyone who has edited a plot section knows that word count on Wikipedia also accounts for little. Article count is a poor measure of project growth but is more often used because it's harder to quantify quality growth, which is often done in sheer word count. ~ Dissident93 ( talk) 08:21, 26 April 2018 (UTC) Reply There is plenty of noteworthy military action taking place each day ( Category:April 2018 events in Syria). ~ P*h3i (□) 05:04, 26 April 2018 (UTC) Reply Unlike video games and other entertainment media, military history is not something that has new, encyclopedic-worthy info released daily, so it makes sense that this project hasn't declined, and is in fact more active now than a few years ago. Pres N 04:17, 26 April 2018 (UTC) Reply This is really interesting data! Thanks for compiling it. Anyways, I mainly posted this because I spent so long building the table that it seemed a waste not to, so. The main point of concern is that the rate of GAs peaked in 2016 and FAs in 2015, though the trend isn't long or deep enough to be over-alarming (to me, at least). VG article count itself started slowing down in 2016, but that was about the point that we started getting aggresive about finding and merging/redirecting new substubs- the sheer size of the 'new articles report' every week doesn't seem to bear out a slowing rate of creation. GA and FA counts keep going up, as do the percentage of total VG articles. The data as chosen doesn't make things look as dire, actually, as MILHIST seems to find it. 82 Bad handling of important subject: VG remastering.79 A valuable tip when writing articles using sources in another language.77 Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 16 June 2018.76 Dark Souls "Bloodstains" and "Bonfires" merge discussion.67 Resolving Rhythm vs Music video game.66 Please see Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard#WP:VG_Sources.64 A reminder with E3 around the corner.61 How to convert percentage to numbers?.59 Borders for Timeline of release year template.55 Is the use of game manuals permitted on video game articles here on Wikipedia?.47 WikiProject collaboration notice from the Portals WikiProject.42 Sorta emergency source request - Edge Magazine #200.41 Do you Copy Edit good? or: How I Learned to Stop Refreshing and Love the Wait.40 Piposh - perhaps the only Israeli video game series.39 Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Oxenfree/archive1.37 Lists of Nintendo Characters inconsistency.30 Move to Every Extend Extra to just Every Extend series.28 Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia.23 Articles for Deletion: List of Harry Potter-related topics.22 I outlined a complete overhaul of Handheld video game.21 1001 Video Games you must play before you Die?.18 Does Metacritic accept user input for critic reviews?.16 What sources can be used as references for video games, such as gameplay and game content?.15 Using some user generated content web pages as references for descriptions of video game content?.5 Need more opinions at List of longest-running video game franchises.
