Amount of data in Commons?

This seems to include only the plain text. I presume the pictures and so on all fall under Commons. Is there any similar figure for the amount of data in Commons, in bytes? I had a look around there but couldn't find anything, though they have statistics for the number of files. Wombat140 (talk) 01:42, 29 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to know too. However, it's best to discuss that in Wikimedia Commons, not Wikipedia. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 00:32, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Word count

This article says the English Wikipedia contains over 3.9 billion words, I'd like to know which parts of an article count toward this number (do references, lists or tables count?). Tools like User:Caorongjin/wordcount and Wikipedia:Prosesize don't count the words inside certain tables, so the contents of the episode list section in One Piece (season 1) are not counted (plenty of prose gets skipped because it's inside a table), while I assume they would be counted here. How is the counting done and which words get counted? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jasper Norbert (talkcontribs) 23:50, 31 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That is a good question. I don't really know as how words are counted isn't stated. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 00:20, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
