Wikipedia Pageviews Seismograph

Track and compare pageview trends for Wikipedia articles, visualized as a seismograph showing spikes in reader interest. Compare up to four pages and easily investigate what caused viewership spikes using Google News searches.

1. Select Wikipedia Pages

Enter up to four Wikipedia page titles, but you can do a lot with just one. Try searching for public figures or people in the news. You can even search for popular topics. If you want a complete overview of how the Seismograph works, I made a 3-minute YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8XxxvQ6alY.

2. Choose Date Range

Select a time period to analyze (tip: 2-3 months works best)
