Is anyone aware of why several Wikipedia pages about "index", including this one, are suddenly at the top of the trending articles with several million views? SrAlfredos (talk) 17:17, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Yes!! I checked multiple other websites to see where else something could be trending for some context, but nothing. Bettysumthin (talk) 02:43, 20 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

My assumption is that it may have something to do with bot activity, in much the same way “XXX: Return of Xander Cage” and variations of “XXX” have been known to trend in the past (the talk page for that film has more discussion on this topic). But I have no definitive proof to that effect. Msmfs (talk) 15:18, 20 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Funny you mention that, the “XXX” thing is trending on wikipedia right now, right under this page (at #2) Clayel (talk) 15:38, 22 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I’ve also noticed this weird behavior. Might have something to do with how the data is retrieved, but I wouldn’t know. TheXug (talk) 00:53, 23 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Looking into it! Seddon (WMF) (talk) 17:14, 20 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Yes, this is so weird. It has been trending for so long. It's on #2 on today, 26 Jan. ChesterChow (talk) 09:05, 26 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
