Wiki Adoption Statistics

In response to Nate's post at Bearing Point on the using of their wiki, I've posted up some stats on our main instance (we have other separate wiki's, such as our website). (Disclaimer - Nate is also customer of ours.)

We're an early adopter and have approx 80 staff, and grant access to our instance to our customers. We've been running our business on Confluence since version about 0.2 in 2003 (before you could pay for it). 5 years later and I can definately say that we made the right choice. Great job Atlassian (Mike/Charles for Confluence back in those days). I still remember Mike explaining to me what a wiki was, but we quickly moved off another web-based file sharing tool onto it

Ok show me the data!

Basic wiki:

Current Wiki Pages = 21,340
Versions of Current Wiki Pages = 115,819
Pages with Comments = 975 (I think we tend to comment on/in blogs)
Number of Comments = 2,333
Unique Page Authors = 206

Blogs/News

Current News Items (Blog Entries) = 12,983
Versions of Current News Items = 17,115
Comments on News Items = 7,900
Unique News Item Authors = 170

Crowd puts our current active user count at 164. We would have more authors above as some projects end or staff move on and their contributions remain, but accounts are deactivated. the overall count is < 500.

How big is your wiki?
