#wikimedia-incubator bn.wiktionary entry total talkies

[2014-01-26 11:02:04] <Pratyya> Hydriz: can you please see https://bn.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E0%A6%AC%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%B6%E0%A7%87%E0%A6%B7:Statistics?
[2014-01-26 11:03:02] <Pratyya> the first line is বিষয়বস্তুর পাতা	২৬৭
[2014-01-26 11:04:13] <Pratyya> it's like Content pages	20,951 in simple wiki.
[2014-01-26 11:04:55] <Pratyya> But the problem is the result at bn wiktionary is 267 (২৬৭=267) in last 1-2 months.
[2014-01-26 11:05:16] <Pratyya> but in that time I created almost 50+ entries, then what's the problem?
[2014-01-26 11:05:40] <Hydriz> Pratyya: It depends on what your wiki's article count method is
[2014-01-26 11:05:46] <Hydriz> Let me take a look...
[2014-01-26 11:06:25] <Hydriz> Pratyya: Did your 50+ entries contain links in them?
[2014-01-26 11:06:37] <Pratyya> mean? Hydriz
[2014-01-26 11:06:41] <Pratyya> link where?
[2014-01-26 11:06:48] <Hydriz> Link to other pages in the wiki
[2014-01-26 11:07:19] <Pratyya> no. but it has categories. Hydriz
[2014-01-26 11:07:37] <Hydriz> Hmm, you need to actually link to other pages in the wiki before it gets counted
[2014-01-26 11:07:58] <Hydriz> 'wgArticleCountMethod' => array(
[2014-01-26 11:07:58] <Hydriz> 	'default' => 'link',
[2014-01-26 11:07:59] <Hydriz> ),
[2014-01-26 11:08:08] <Hydriz> That's the setting for your wiki
[2014-01-26 11:08:18] <Pratyya> how did you got that?
[2014-01-26 11:09:01] <Pratyya> Hydriz: ^
[2014-01-26 11:09:33] <Hydriz> http://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/highlight.php?file=InitialiseSettings.php
[2014-01-26 11:12:38] <Pratyya> what's the settings for simple.wiktionary Hydriz ?
[2014-01-26 11:14:03] <Hydriz> Pratyya: We are the same, "link"
[2014-01-26 11:14:32] <Hydriz> Our entries usually have links, and it is quite like a requirement that we do so
[2014-01-26 11:15:08] <Hydriz> Pratyya: Have a look at your wiki's Special:DeadendPages and slowly fix them
[2014-01-26 11:25:39] <Pratyya> can a bot or something do that Hydriz ?
[2014-01-26 11:25:56] <Hydriz> I don't recommend using bots though
[2014-01-26 11:26:05] <Hydriz> Just try to link to other pages manually
[2014-01-26 11:26:25] <Hydriz> Of course, you should only link to pages that are actually related to the page itself
[2014-01-26 11:37:41] <Pratyya> Hydriz:  see https://bn.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=%E0%A6%AC%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%B6%E0%A7%87%E0%A6%B7:DeadendPages&limit=1000&offset=0
[2014-01-26 11:38:01] <Hydriz> Pratyya: Yes?
[2014-01-26 11:38:22] <Hydriz> "The following data is cached, and was last updated 05:36, 25 January 2014. A maximum of 5,000 results are available in the cache. "
[2014-01-26 11:38:27] <Hydriz> So you are in luck
[2014-01-26 11:38:40] <Hydriz> You can just work on these pages by slowly adding links to them
[2014-01-26 11:39:23] <Pratyya> there are 963 pages!!! I'm having hallucination .
[2014-01-26 11:40:33] <Hydriz> Pratyya: Ahahaha we only have 84: https://simple.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=Special:DeadendPages&limit=100&offset=0
[2014-01-26 11:41:15] <Hydriz> Since your wiki is still small, just make sure this habit gets in for every editor first
[2014-01-26 11:41:29] <Hydriz> Or else you are going to have a very bad time in the future
[2014-01-26 11:42:00] <Pratyya> no. if I'm on a wiki, that wiki will never go down :P
[2014-01-26 11:42:23] <Pratyya> but we've to spend all most 6 months to do this linkings.
[2014-01-26 11:42:53] <Pratyya> If we've got 3-4 more users it'll take 1 months top. but.....
[2014-01-26 11:43:23] <Pratyya> so can you please find me the actual number of entries of bn.wiktionary Hydriz ?
[2014-01-26 11:43:47] <Hydriz> Pratyya: I can do a query on the cluster, give me a minute
[2014-01-26 11:43:59] <Pratyya> sure.
[2014-01-26 11:45:07] <Hydriz> Pratyya: 1285
[2014-01-26 11:45:20] <Hydriz> MariaDB [bnwiktionary_p]> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM page WHERE page_namespace='0';
