- Well said, Hawkeye. Some great info and guidance there. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 22:00, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
- Those pageviews reported by the bot are off.
Cleopatra's Wikipedia popularity is a long time false positive, at least in part due to this. I'm also not sure where the bot is getting its pageview count from for the IsraelâHamas War... it's actually around 13 million. Oppenheimer is above 28 million. Sam Bahadur is at 2 million views, not nearly 19. Ed [talk] [OMT] 22:42, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
- The Bot added up the pages as reported on Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Popular pages. For 2023 IsraelâHamas war, Popular pages gave it 2,043,849 views in December, 3,123,611 in November and 8,110,830 in October. I have corrected an error; I think the figures line up better now.

- Thanks, Hawkeye! If I'm understanding that correctly, apologies for the direct language as I didn't know it was your bot that did the calculating. I assumed it was something off with the Community tech bot's updates. Ed [talk] [OMT] 05:16, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- No apology necessary. There was an error in the Bot's calculations caused by a software change external to the bots. I have corrected it. I should have checked more carefully but was in a hurry to make the Bugle issue. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:53, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
