Forum:Page access counts, Special:Popularpages are gone!

The page access count at the bottom of every page has gone missing. Also, the Special:Popularpages page has been removed.

Is this situation temporary? I hope! Why has it occurred, and when will the access counts and Popularpages return? --Alisonnic (talk) 19:58, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
 * They were disabled to resolve load issues. I don't expect they will be re-enabled. -- 20:03, 22 February 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm very sorry to learn this. I felt these statistics were very interesting and informative. I never experienced load issues before they were disabled. Was there a vote on this decision? --Alisonnic (talk) 11:53, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
