166:, it had 485 total nominations, and in the categories, it lists 348 waiting for a review and 141 under review (which includes all review/on hold/2ndopinion noms), which totals 489 rather than 485. I've never figured out what's causing the discrepancy in these category totals, but it's why I trust the Report numbers to be more precise and use them when I get the chance. As far as the interim daily numbers, it's not going to be too far off if sometimes the Nominations page is used, and I think there was one past drive where I managed to get the Nominations page consistently for all 30 days, but for this drive and the last one I've taken the beginning and end numbers from the Reports page.
209:, I checked all three categories by copying the lists and then counting them. There was one in the nominees category that was caused by a category manually added to an article talk page back during its GAN review in 2015, but otherwise the number of entries were what I expected (485); the same for for the 141 under review. The number of nominees awaiting review was off, however: the total given was 348, but there were only 343 actual entries. I don't know why there's a discrepancy there of five entries in the count, but it's important because the Nominations page currently shows five higher than reality when it comes to "waiting for review". What are these five phantoms?

page. I started out this drive using the
Reports page, because the software there gets its numbers by parsing/counting the nominations and reviews on the GAN page at 01:00; it's a simple matter to back off from 01:00 to midnight, and doing diffs lets you know exactly when the new noms or new reviews

boilerplate on category pages is meaningless, in my experience—when something I do causes a change in the membership on any number of category pages, it happens right away, including to the count. I think you'll find that the phantom five are always there on the awaiting page. I had known about the

After that, I'm a bit stuck. The category page does warn that "This list may not reflect recent changes", which might account for it; if the deviation (currently five) fluctuates over time, this might suggest it is just based on lag. Or it could be some other error. By the way, maybe we should move

The number in this category is off by five: it currently says that there are "approximately 342 total" pages in the category, but lists only 337 (page 1: "The following 200 pages are in this category, out of approximately 342 total"; page 2: "The following 137 pages are in this category, out of

Nominations page is that it uses categories to base its numbers from (via template
114:, I could be totally missing something, but are the numbers for 18 March (479 outstanding; 339 unreviewed) correct? At present, the nominations page gives the numbers as 484 (+5) and 347 (+8), but Legobot has run only twice since midnight, and added only two articles (

simply exclude them. Unfortunately, it doesn't also get rid of the phantom five for the awaiting review category, which I'd been hoping it might somehow cure, if there were some non-page unseen subcategories or files being included in the count. Oh well.
188:; that makes a lot of sense. The discrepancy is odd, but in any event (and as you say), it's better to work with a consistently generated number than with a number that is subject to change every 20 minutes, with no archive. --
