A The unusually large increase in the number of articles in March 2015 was caused by a maintenance script running for the first time on 29 March. The purpose of the maintenance script was to correct the automatically updated count, which was missing roughly 95,000 articles. Since the maintenance script will run on the 29th of each month from now on, the reported count should stay much closer to the true count. See note for more information.
B The month-end total FAs listed for March 2013 through October 2014 do not match the number listed in this table because of two errors [1] [2] that were found and corrected in November 2014.[3] The numbers in this table are audited and correct; the numbers in the linked diffs at month-end were incorrect.
