Description

I need to run updateArticleCount.php to update the count in Special:Statistics and {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} for commons
Context: The value of https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgContentNamespaces was changed in T167077 and the value is currently wrong....

How can we make this happen?

Wow, that was fast. I thought it would take hours…

Weird, it was taking way longer for me earlier... Glad we got it done :)
