About this data

This page tracks how often Wikipedia template parameters fall out of use as articles evolve, measured across different languages. It reveals which language communities maintain their templates most actively and how long parameters typically remain useful. The data comes from analysing template parameter usage in Wikipedia dumps, focusing on parameters that are defined but never actually used in articles.

Sources

Every figure on this page was read from these pages.

Why this isn't published anywhere else

No existing sources directly track or publish Wikipedia template parameter obsolescence rates by language, nor do they measure maintenance variations across languages.

Uniqueness score 1.00 — assessed against live web search results when this subject was created.
