Module:NUMBEROF

• The module implements {{NUMBEROF}} and {{Wikipedia rank by size}}.
• The module uses commons:Data:Wikipedia statistics/data.tab and commons:Data:Wikipedia statistics/meta.tab for statistics and commons:Data:Wikipedia statistics/rank/*.tab for rankings.
  • data.tab, meta.tag and rank/*.tab are updated by bot multiple times per day.
• The module loads Module:NUMBEROF/data, Module:NUMBEROF/rank, Module:NUMBEROF/other and Module:NUMBEROF/meta once per page [not per template invocation].
• The module was originally developed on Enwiki.
