This traffic report is adapted from the Top 25 Report, prepared with commentary by Igordebraga, Max BuddyRoo, and SSSB.

For the December 30-January 30 period, per this this database report; shout out to ElijahPepe for some of the write-ups below.

These lists exclude the Wikipedia main page, non-article pages (such as redlinks), and anomalous entries (such as DDoS attacks or likely automated views). Since mobile view data became available to the Report in October 2014, we exclude articles that have almost no mobile views (5–6% or less) or almost all mobile views (94–95% or more) because they are very likely to be automated views based on our experience and research of the issue. Please feel free to discuss any removal on the Top 25 Report talk page if you wish.

Uh, what happened to the first two weeks of January? Was Wikipedia closed? Or was data not collected? You mention Jeff Beck so I expected to see him on a list but he must have passed during the first half of January 2023. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:00, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like the prior issue ran an 2022 end-of-year wrapup instead of the WP:TOP25 for the first two weeks of 2023, as it usually would have, and we didn't include those in this issue. ☆ Bri (talk) 00:03, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's it, I chose to start with the period after the previous edition (published on January 16) rather than including week 1 and week 2. igordebraga ≠ 15:21, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
