Unsolved problem:

What is the longest current article that is a political biography? 88.235.215.219 (talk) 04:39, 2 December 2024 (UTC)

Vladimir Putin (486,278 bytes). Most of the time, this category is identical to the longest biography overall. We are in the unusual situation where that's not the case.

I've made a change to the list that I hope solves this problem, so that we give either the longest political or non-political biography, depending on what the longest biography is overall. The other one remains hidden in the mean time. Renerpho (talk) 06:42, 2 December 2024 (UTC)

Gap between edits to a page

Is there an automated or database-derived list that lists the longest gaps between edits between pages (including redirects and other non-articles)? I recently added an rcat to Brandenburger Tor (a 20 years and 11 months gap), which is a few months below the record (although there are probably a lot more between that and Beato Angelico).

I am not aware of such a list. The records presented here for that category (and its subcategories) were found manually. Renerpho (talk) 21:08, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

Longest section title?

Most footnotes in one article?

24-cell has a lot of footnotes, and that got me wondering: what article has the most amount of unique footnotes? Catzcute4 (talk) 17:00, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

@Catzcute4: 180 unique footnotes (peak number from Special:Permalink/1214361288 on 18 March 2024; it is down to 175 now) is quite impressive... I think it's worth adding to the records list.

I'll leave doing that to you (unless you need help; feel free to ask). Some considerations: We have a category "most used footnote in one article", which somewhat confusingly refers to inline citations (references), not notes. I would suggest to rename that category to "most used reference in one article", and add a "most unique footnotes" category below, with your find as the first claimant, and an explanatory note, along the lines of {{efn|1="Footnotes" here refers to entries in the [[Help:Footnotes|Notes]] section of an article. For records about [[Wikipedia:Citing_sources#Inline_citations|references]], see above.}}. Mark the record as {{efn|name=Unconfirmed|Unconfirmed}}. For consistency, I suggest to also edit the hatnote at WP:MRA when you're done, so that it no longer refers to footnotes, but to references. Renerpho (talk) 18:57, 19 January 2025 (UTC)
