Someone reported an issue on reddit: "why are all the article counts different? I thought the only difference was how detailed the articles are. "

@mgautierfr @kelson42 @rgaudin I don't know who should have a look into it ; maybe one of you already have the explanation

@benoit74 Pretty sure this is a bug, probably at the reader side. But should be checked.

I think I know what's going on ; I'll check

There are two issues here:

nopic was apparently buggy and recreated a few days later in February.
mini numbers are wrong because of a bug in Kiwix Apple reader that has been fixed.

Looks consistent now with nightly build ; here what I get for a few major languages.
