Since Special:ValidationStatistics is no longer updated frequently, it would be useful to know the date of the update for both the core statistics and the hourly statistics. The first date would fit well in the second line, the second date would fit in the explaining sentence for the hourly statistics. Furthermore, it would be nice to see if the lag has increased or decreased. To this end, in the third table, behind the total numbers, a (+/X), where X is the difference to the number there before, should appear.
ValidationStatistics should be updated every two hours as it always has been...unless someone changed the crontab recently.
For quite some time now, it takes days for the core statistics to be updated. The hourly statistics are updated more often, but definitely not every hour.
http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/Cron_jobs#FlaggedRevs_stats_update Hmm...don't seem to be done in parallel, rather in succession per wiki...which slows down as wikis are added
Still, the code for the top 5 only cached items for 1 hour
With Aaron's request I have added back in the information on: http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/Cron_jobs#FlaggedRevs_stats_update We are hopeful that this is the fix.
Still no updates.
OK, working now. Domas fixed it \o/
The problem persists, the page is not updated for days. So, I'd like to take up the suggestions from the first post again (well, in addition to more frequent updates).
The 'last updated' date was added in a recent revision, which should be good enough when live. Also, the .sh script to update the page was deleted by accident and restored in r58059, so there were no updates in that time.
