Share is the percentage of requesting ip addresses (out of the global total) which originated from this country
 Further percentages show per country share of page edits per Wikipedia visited

Countries are only included if the number of requests in the period exceeds 10000(10 matching records in 1:1000 sampled log)

Wikipedia's are only listed for some country if the share of visitors for that particular country exceeds 0.1%.

The second column displays the actual numbers of records found in the 1:1000 sampled log on which the percentage is based.
Multiply by 1000 for actual page edits over the whole period of 1 months.
If the number of records in the sampled log does not reach the (arbitrary) number of 5 per sampled month, the percentage is flagged dark red to extra emphasize high inaccuracy.

Page requests by bots are not included. Also all ip addresses that occur more than once on a given day are discarded for that day.
A few false negatives are taken for granted. Country meta data collected from English Wikipedia. Portal = www.wikipedia.org

Errata: WMF traffic logging service suffered from server capacity problems in Aug/Sep/Oct 2011.
Absolute traffic counts for October 2011 are approximatly 7% too low.
Data loss only occurred during peak hours. It therefore may have had somewhat different impact for traffic from different parts of the world.
and may have also skewed relative figures like share of traffic per browser or operating system.

From mid September till late November squid log records for mobile traffic were in invalid format.
Data could be repaired for logs from mid October onwards. Older logs were no longer available.

In a an unrelated server outage precisely half of traffic to WMF mobile sites was not counted from Oct 16 - Nov 29 (one of two load-balanced servers did not report traffic).
WMF has since improved server monitoring, so that similar outages should be detected and fixed much faster from now on.
