At Special:Video, there is a drop-down list with latest, trending, most popular, etc., as sorting options.

Since the counter that tracked video views stopped working, and was not fixed, shouldn’t this pull-down box be changed to reflect that?

Moreover, I’d like to suggest that, in light of the removal of the counter, the default sort should be “latest”. This would have the added benefit of making the default sort at Special:Videos the same as at Special:NewFiles.
