Description Melancholie 2009-03-10 04:33:49 UTC

Consider adding &dontcountme=s to the importScript() URL at wikibits.js (if still a current parameter).

----
Not sure if you should use &amp; actually!

&dontcountme=s is deprecated. Not sure why...

Comment 2 MZMcBride 2009-03-10 05:23:35 UTC

&dontcountme=s was an old Webalizer hack used to make sure that scripts wouldn't screw up pageview stats. Wikimedia hasn't used Webalizer since about 2004, I believe.

If there's anywhere in the code that &dontcountme=s is still being used, it should be removed per r35103. I've adjusted the bug summary accordingly.

We don't use that extension. Furthermore, the extension should simply be updated such that it no longer uses this parameter.

Comment 5 Chad H. 2009-03-10 19:05:15 UTC

I don't see any usages of 'dontcountme' anywhere in Wikimedia SVN-maintained extensions, and the only instance in MW core is in the completely unused MonoBookCBT template.
