|
Today's featured list statistics Featured lists (WP:FL) are considered to be the best lists in Wikipedia. The Today's featured list (WP:TFL) was launched in June 2011, with lists featured every Monday, and since then there has been a record of the articles chosen. Since February 2014, TFLs are featured on Mondays and Fridays. The values include: the date at the Main Page, the topic of interest,[1] the main author(s),[2] and pageview and image statistics.[3] Please, do not see this list as a competition, but as a helpful tool for determining correlations between reader views and topics featured on the main page, in relation to the date selected. The most-viewed list in the year was Aishwarya Rai filmography at 22,500 views on 20 May. |
