Odd daily update

[edit]

I just updated the Progress chart and accompanying table, and was surprised to see the number of old articles go up by one. This isn't supposed to happen, though I suppose it could be that someone started on an article, removing the copyedit template as they did so, and then ended up not completing the copyedit and restoring the deleted template. I guess I'm posting this to acknowledge that something unusual happened, but the total for today seems to be correct—at least, when I checked the individual months, there were indeed 40 templated articles from August and 146 from September, for a total of 186. Yesterday's total was given as 185. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:42, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It could also be that someone reverted an edit that had removed a template, or gave the wrong month in a newly added template. These things happen! Thanks for all the progress chart updates you do. Cheers, Tdslk (talk) 03:30, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
