Today, just out of curiosity, I decided to compare the popularity of wikiHow and the different WMF projects. I think my findings will be of interest to the community, as I found that wikiHow is the second most popular wiki, behind only Wikipedia. Below, I’ve listed the different wikis and the global popularity ranking beside the corresponding name. Enjoy!

There are several online popularity rankings. Where is this ranking taken from? Quantcast? Alexa?
Alexa. If you look closely, you’ll see that I linked each name to the relevant ranking page.
