automatic country-page creation #9

Open huggi opened 9 years ago

Okay, some basics should be created automatically like 195 country pages: Can you create them, adding always:

[[Wikipedia:$Countryname]] inside, as we're all to lazy to do that manually? Same for the cities.

I don't think it's useful to have 195 empty pages... Better grow organically.

Okay (I'm not interested in building massed), but let's put it this way: It's better to have 195 empty pages with a minimal effort and a link to an existing Wikipedia article which satisfies the normal user instead of giving him the impression maybe something is here and then he searches for e.g. Albania and than, oh there is nothing (of course albania is now there). At the end of the day, semantics is a lot about user perception and if we have 195 pages and see that only the austrian guys are looking there, we improve that. before we have that, we don't know where to go.

Side question: Could you do a reset with the statistics or is there a way to see for e.g. top10 pages visited in the last 24 hours as of today the counters are so high that we could not even see a simple trend? Thanks!
