Wikipedia talk:Size in volumes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] What about the images?

The size calculation appears to ignore images. You might want to add a note about that, or else do some additional calculations to include them. --Tagishsimon (talk) 17:45, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] No updates?

Am I doing something wrong, or has the statistics page at http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/TablesWikipediaEN.htm seriously not been updated since Oct. 06? Is there a more updated version? 74.250.127.214 (talk) 10:00, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

No, it hasn't been updated for that long. Aparently the software used has trouble coping with database dumps above a certain size. However, the number of volumes is based on the live article count (which does update evry time you look at the page), and the average number of words per article (which uses the somewhat old page you linked to).
