Wikipedia talk:Million Award

Susanna Hoffs

Just promoted to FA. It was a million-award-winner when promoted to GA, and, per the note at WP:MILLION to "choose a one-year date range, such as 1/1/YYYY - 12/31/YYYY for the previous calendar year" might still qualify (1,175,316 views, including some spikes, in the calendar year 2023). However, views have gone down to a little under a million (excluding a main page appearance for DYK) in the year to date so maybe only a Three-Quarter Million Award?

Note: GA version awarded 6 April.

 Verified: Primary author, nominated for FAC and responded to reviewers. Main Page appearance 5 May 2024 (DYK). An even bigger spike 22 March, not sure what that was. Assessing at 920k views in the 365 days before promotion. Awarded. – Reidgreg (talk) 19:26, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

Thank you Reidgreg. the spike on 22 March coincided with this Reddit post, which may be the reason. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 13:35, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

Promoted to GA today, DYK hook already provisionally approved. Close to 2.3 million page views in the last year. Since May 2024 there has been a reduction in page views for reason unknown (possibly related to google AI preview rollout?). But with daily average page views since then still suggest an average close to a million views even if views don't pick up. The last 5 years average, which includes years of lower traffic, is 5,476,011 giving a daily average of 2,994. I hope this is sufficient for the 1 million award.
