-The weekly [[WP:TOP25]] is unavailable because of questions about its exclusion list. The [[Galapagos shark]] article was excluded from the top ten because of very low reported mobile page views. However, there were reports of large sharks and at least one shark attack last week. [[Overview effect]] had almost entirely mobile page views on a transient date. Please see [[WP:5000]] for raw data.
