About this data

This page monitors the variety of protocols (like HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and mailto) used in external links found within Wikipedia's 'See Also' sections. We analyse the percentage breakdown of these protocols to see how linking habits on Wikipedia have changed over time.

These statistics are derived from a large-scale analysis of Wikipedia's 'See Also' content. While Wikipedia has data on link rot, the specific breakdown of protocol diversity in these linking sections is not widely tracked elsewhere.

Understanding this data offers a unique glimpse into the changing web landscape and how external resources are referenced, providing insights into the longevity and accessibility of linked information.
