top 25 Report/October 2003
- The Wiki: Top 25 Report was created in January 2013. This page is part of an archive project to preserve data from previous popular page reports.
← Last month's report – Next month's report →
The most viewed articles for October 2003, derived from historical data.
In 2002-2004, "en.wikipedia.org/stats" and later "wikimedia.org/stats/en.wikipedia.org" posted monthly data on viewing statistics derived from Webalizer. The October 2003 report (preserved at archive.org [1]) included a list of the Top 100 most requested URLs. This was an increase from prior monthly reports, which only listed the top 30 URLS.
After removing non-article pages (but keeping the Main Page, which we normally exclude from the Top 25 Report), the below list was created and commentary added in November 2016:
October 2003
1. 249494 Main Page. (See archive.org version of Main Page for October 8, 2003: [2]) 2. 26838 Current events. In 2016, this is simply a redirect to News. In 2003, it was the equivalent to Portal:Current events, and was a prominent link on the Main Page3. 20711 The Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything - This article first became very popular in the August 2003 chart, probably because it was absurdly comprehensive for the time. In 2016, it now redirects to Phrases from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy#Answer_to_the_Ultimate_Question_of_Life.2C_the_Universe.2C_and_Everything_.2842.294. 15084 Douglas MacArthur - Why was MacArthur so popular this month?
