97.119.198.190, do you actually have a method for determining how many times a user reaches that article through this link? That would be amazingly useful. -- Fyrael (talk) 20:26, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Fyrael:, I'm not the IP, but the method is pretty straightforward. Pageviews for the redirect SW (film series) will show how many readers use that link. If the dab page is the only place the link is used, it is fairly safe assumption they are coming from the disambiguation page. Of course, that doesn't preclude some risk of gaming the system if the link is posted to some external sites. older ≠ wiser 20:49, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oh duh, I forgot it was using a redirect. Thank you. And here I was so sure that such a process didn't exist specifically because we'd have been using it in primary topic discussions EVERYWHERE. -- Fyrael (talk) 21:27, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
