Incidentally, the "Content Pages" count on Special:Statistics is NUMBEROFARTICLES, so that's no help.

Whereas, "Articles (excl. redirects)" on Special:WikiStats is just wrong, but I have no idea where the number comes from. (It's 400 odd too high for me.)

To double-check the actual number of articles, I usually use: But that assumes all your content is in the main namespace.

Edit: Both Special:LongPages and Special:ShortPages list in excess of 1,000,000 articles, I thought it was limited to 1000 like other special pages, but this says otherwise

Edit:
 * The longest article on lyrics.wikia is ‎Frank Sinatra ‎(152,713 bytes)
 * On Special:ShortPages, the same article is number 1,537,313.
 * Lyricwiki says there are 2,770,953 pages. I sure hope that other namespaces are counted in that, because otherwise it's out by over a million pages.
