Wikipedia:List of countries by coverage

This Wikipedia article or category is currently inactive and is kept primarily for historical interest. If you want to revive discussion regarding the subject, you may try using the talk page or start a discussion at the village pump. |
The following lists the countries of the world in the order of the coverage on the English version of Wikipedia, by searching for ["name of country" site:en.wikipedia.org] at Google. Duplicated entries in mirrored sites are not included.
Notes:
- This list includes dependent territories and some disputed or occupied areas that are de facto independent.
- The number of Google hits will not necessarily be up to date.
- The number of Google hits in the official language(s) (other than English) of the corresponding countries is included for reference and comparison.
- The Google hits work for most countries, but it has a problem differentiating, say, Guinea and Guinea-Bissau, and the Netherlands and the Netherlands Antilles, where one would become a subset of another. Pay special attention to the number of hits of these countries, and use the minus sign in searching (example: ["Guinea" -German -Bissau -Equatorial -New -Papua -Portuguese site:en.wikipedia.org]) if necessary. Mark these countries with an asterisk * where appropriate.
- These figures date from early 2005, and have not been updated
