Share of new sites using MediaWiki
Each dot is one launch day. Line is the 7-day rolling average. Chart starts at first detection.
The shaded part of the chart is measured against a different set of sites. Until 8 July 2026 we only tracked launches from launch platforms; from that date we crawl the wider web as well. The share is a proportion of whatever we were tracking at the time, so it can step at that line without the technology itself changing. For a single continuous measure, switch to launch platforms.

Recent launches we can show
2 of the 100 sites using MediaWiki are product launches we list individually. The other 98 are sites we found crawling the wider web: they count towards the figures above, but we do not publish them one by one. How StackScope Discovery works
