Furious domination

And for real Furious aficionados, be sure to scroll down to see our Furious only chart, which reveals that all seven movies were ranked among the 200 most popular articles this week.

Interstellar's entry has last week's total (586,354 views) listed, for some reason, instead of this week's total (564,409 views, according to the most-viewed-articles page). Needs fixing immediately! Whoop whoop pull up ^{Bitching Betty | Averted crashes} 18:21, 17 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. It was an artifact from the last list.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 19:56, 17 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, what's happened to Serendipodous? He's the one who usually does the traffic report. Whoop whoop pull up ^{Bitching Betty | Averted crashes} 23:10, 17 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Believe it or not we generally switch off weeks to make the workload easier.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 03:38, 18 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Re Zlatan Ibrahimović: actually, he said it in English.--A bit iffy (talk) 18:43, 19 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

All the reporting seems to convert his comments into English which I suppose is common for football coverage, they aren't going to go into details like that, they want to get the "scandalous" comment out there.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 17:00, 20 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
