The Main Website reached another milestone early yesterday (Tuesday) morning - the 25 millionth visit.
The site began long ago, you can find a history and timeline on the website.
Until the site got its own domain - on the Feast of Blessed Damien de Veuster (10 May 2002) no logs and very few stats were available. On that first day, there were 45 visits - viewing 495 pages.
Over the years the site has greatly expanded in content and in users. For example, last month there was an average of over 8,500 visits looking at over 43,000 pages each day. Over 2,000 people belong to the groups that receive emails about updates.
And yesterday, the total number of visits passed 25 million. During those visits, folks viewed 156 million pages. Not bad for a bit over 12 years of service :-)
For reference, it took 6.2 years (July 2008) for the first 10 million visits. It took only 4.2 years for the second 10 million. And now, after only 1.7 years, we are halfway to the third 10 million!
All I can say is Thank You!

Now featuring over 35,000 Bishops
This past week I've been working on some older data entry for the site. In doing so, it has passed a milestone: it now has data on over 35,000 Bishops.
Here is a quick table showing how the data has expanded over time:
(Note: there are a few "bishops" on the site that are not really bishops. These are mostly either ordinaries of a jurisdiction such as a prefecture or cardinals that were not also bishops.)

College of Cardinals (with new Designees): Notes, Statistics, and updated Charts
The Charts (Warning: PDF format)
The charts are:
The last Consistory to create Cardinals with 6 or fewer designees was under Pope Paul VI (actually his last one) - in June 1977 - just over a year before his death.
Among those named, was a young (50 years old) new (a month after his consecration) Archbishop of München und Freising {Munich}, Germany - named Joseph Ratzinger (better known now as Pope Benedict XVI).
The charts are:
- Number of Cardinals (1585-2022; 1915-2022; and 1965-2022)

and 20,000,000 visits later
The Main Website reached another milestone early this morning - the 20 millionth visit.
The site began long ago, you can find a history and timeline on the website.

Over the years the site has greatly expanded in content and in users. For example, last month there was an average of over 7,000 visits looking at over 36,000 pages each day. Over 1,850 people belong to the groups that receive emails about updates.
And today, the total number of visits passed 20 million. During those visits, folks viewed 128 million pages. Not bad for 10.4 years of service :-)
For reference, it took 6.2 years (July 2008) for the first 10 million visits. It has taken only 4.2 years for the second 10 million!

Happy Anniversary & Happy Birthday!!!
This year marks the 15th birthday of this project. Although the exact date was not recorded, it was started early in the year 1997 - and only consisted of 3 manually created and maintained pages.
It was originally started because, at the time, only a handful of dioceses around the world had websites. Simply put there was almost no information on the current (much less historical) Catholic Hierarchy on the web.
5 years later (and 10 years ago today), the website gained its new name and got its own domain: Catholic-Hierarchy.org. Statistics are only available from that time as well.
A more complete history of the project can be found on the site itself.
The site was "unified" (see the link above for more details) in August 2002 - meaning that is when it first covered the entire world. At that time it had entries for 8,700 bishops and 5,300 dioceses (current and historical).
Today the databases cover over 32,500 bishops (roughly 5,200 living, the rest historical). Dioceses are a bit more complicated - as that category now includes current dioceses (roughly 3,100), titular dioceses (roughly 2,200), Cardinal Titles (roughly 250), and historic dioceses make up the rest - totaling a bit over 9,100 now.
The databases also include over 220,000 bishop events, roughly 48,000 source references; 54,000 lineage records; 31,000 diocese statistical records; 12,800 diocese event records; just under 2,000 external links; and a bit over 500 "group" records (consistories, conclaves, etc.) relating to over 17,000 bishop records.
In the past 10 years, people from around the world have visited the website 19 million times. During those visits that have viewed 123 million individual web pages. A total of roughly 2 terabytes of data.
In the average month (over the last year), there have been 116,000 unique visitors with 216,000 visits, viewing 1.2 million individual web pages.
Last month, the website had visitors from more than 165 countries! The top dozen were: USA, Poland, Italy, Vietnam, Germany, Brazil, France, Australia, Ghana, Mexico, Canada, and Belgium. Vatican City State even appears as #25.
All I can say is: Thank You!
I'm glad ya'll enjoy my little hobby!

Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth?
The 2011 edition of the Annuario Pontificio was presented to Pope Benedict XVI on 19 Feb. It recently became available for sale and I received a copy late yesterday (Friday).
One of the changes it lists, with a date of 22 Oct 2009, is the uniting of the Archdiocese of Halifax with the Diocese of Yarmouth to form the Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth, Canada.
The difficulty is that there has never been an announcement of such a unification. There is no reference to it on the official website for either jurisdiction, on the CCCB website, nor on the Vatican website.
Given the uncertainty about this change, I have decided not to show it on my website until further confirmation or clarification is available.
I have contacted a number of different sources and I hope to be able to provide an update in the next week or so. If you can assist in clearing up the matter, please leave me feedback through the form on the main website.
[AP 2011 references to the unification are on pages 287 (Halifax-Yarmouth), 806 (Yarmouth), and 1151 (changes).]

Version 2.6.9 - Eastern Catholic Churches
I had the opportunity to make some adjustments to the code today and I've made a first cut at cleaning up the handling of the Eastern Catholic Churches.
Let me begin by saying, its not near done - but hopefully its better. I have added some internal structures which should allow some additional flexibility in the future. Since I know I will be making more revisions, I have not done a general refresh, so the changes will only show on pages as they are updated.
Some examples:
FYI, in the lower right corner of any automated page on the website has the version of the code that generated that page and the date of the data as well.
Feedback is most certainly welcome, just use the regular feedback form on the website.
Please be patient though, after all this is just a hobby done in my spare time. I don't always have time to response to every message, but be assured I do read and consider them.
P.S. My copy of the Annuario Pontificio 2011 is on the way. Hopefully I'll have a chance to work with the new data in the coming months.

Version 2.6.8 and a General Refresh
I'm happy to release a new version (2.6.8) of the main code along with an update to the build system (1.8.2). This was the first change to the build system since September 2003.
Just to explain that a bit, the main code (web.ssl) does most of the actual work (like generating a web page), the build system (build.ssl) controls the overall process.
The changes are almost all internal, relating mostly to expanding some variables that had reached their limits (i.e., the web site had simply grown too big) and adjusting the meaning of some others. As always, it is certainly possible that I've broken something else in the process, so if you see something really odd, please let me know.
For those that really watch the site closely, the Build Detail pages will have a few enhancements. (The lists of which bishops, dioceses, etc. were updated will still normally be included except for when the build is a "full" refresh.)
The other big event this weekend was a full refresh of the web site (44,660 web pages). (The site itself is slightly larger than that because it includes a few non-automated web pages.) That build is complete, but it may take a day or so to get it all uploaded.
The full build this time took a bit over 11 hours (which is part of the reason I don't do them very often!). I should note however, that is a vast improvement over the last successful full build which was done in April 2004 and took roughly 88 hours (and that was with about half the number of bishops on the site).
The full build before that took about the same length of time as the new one. It was in September 2003 and took just under 12 hours. But the site at that time was much simpler, it had just begun to add Bishop Lineages and it didn't yet have Titular Dioceses, Cardinal Titles, any of the Structured Views, nor any Consistory, Conclave, or Council information. At that time there were less than 14,000 bishops (vs over 30,000 now).

Here is a quick table showing how the data has expanded over time:

Version 2.6.7 Structured View of Bishops
This weekend I've had a chance to make a few updates to the code that generates the website. There are several minor fixes and one big new feature: Structured View of Bishops.
The idea is to have a single page which shows all the current active bishops for a given country with various vital stats. As an example, take a look at this page for the United States of America.
You can find the link for a given country from the main country page, in the 2nd column labeled "Structured View" (not to be confused with the "Structured View" of dioceses listed in the 1st column).
Please note that I have not done a full refresh, so the new pages will appear for each country as a change occurs for that country. I hope to do a general refresh later this month.
There may be a couple more small code adjustments tomorrow.
If I've accidently broken something with the new update, please let me know! (Just use the feedback form on the website.)
Just a quick follow-up: Thanks for the feedback! I've made several minor adjustments today that should fix most of the outstanding issues on the Structured View pages (most related to secondary appointments). [updated 22 Jan 2011]
Another bug fixed today, Prelates were showing incomplete information. [updated 23 Jan 2011]

15 million visits, viewing 100 million pages
The main website passed two major milestones in the past week. A week ago today, the site had its 15 millionth visit. Then yesterday, the site passed 100 million pages viewed.
The site began long ago, you can find a history and timeline in an earlier post.
Until the site got its own domain - on the Feast of Blessed Damien de Veuster (10 May 2002) no logs and very few stats were available. On that first day, there were 45 visits - viewing 495 pages.
So the milestones I mentioned above are based on stats beginning on that day - not quite 8.5 years ago.
Over the years the site has greatly expanded in content and in users.
All I can say is Thank You!

Another Random Cardinal Chart
After posting the previous charts, someone asked a good question: how many Cardinals are created per year?
The Chart (Warning: PDF format)
So I ran the numbers and created a new chart showing the number of Cardinals created per papacy and the average number of Cardinals created per year.
The result is that beginning with the 17th century, the number of Cardinals created per year was around 4 until about 50 years ago. There was one obvious exception, Pope Alexander VIII (who averaged 10.77).
Beginning with Pope John XXIII, the average has been just under 9 per year. Pope Benedict XVI is current just over 7 per year.
(The overall answer is an average of 4.6 Cardinals created per year over the last 400 years.)

If you view the blog as a webpage (rather than as an RSS feed) then you no doubt have been noticing a few adjustments. I think I've got it setup pretty well now, but if you disagree, feedback would be appreciated (please use the Feedback form on the main website).
Please note the Archive list is now on a separate page.

Version 2.6.4
I've done some work on the code today. The changes are mostly internal and will allow me do some more analysis of cardinals over time. There are two visible changes. On the page for someone that was created a cardinal and then later resigned that dignity, the length of service as a cardinal is now correct.
The second change is that on the Pope pages, there is a new column named "Conclave Start" which has the date and a link to the page for that conclave (if I have one on the site).
If you happen to see any strange side effects (probably involving cardinals), please let me know via the usual feedback page.

Technical Note regarding Voting Cardinals
While doing some research I discovered that my wording on the website relating to the age of a cardinal and his right to vote in a conclave was not accurate. I'm in the process of updating the wording on the site.
The old wording was:
(Source: #33, Universi Dominici Gregis, by Pope John Paul II, on 22 Feb 1996)
The old wording was:
Cardinals under the age of 80 at the time the Holy See becomes vacant may vote in a conclave.The new wording is:
Cardinals that reach the age of 80 before the Holy See becomes vacant may not vote in a conclave.It may not seem like that big of a change, but there is one important distinction. If the Cardinal turns 80 years old on the same day that the Holy See becomes vacant, he does retain the right to vote in the subsequent conclave.

Daylight Saving Time
We have reached that time of year again. This weekend the US moves to Daylight Saving Time. Europe (specifically Rome) doesn't make the change until 2 weeks later.
The net effect is that the formal announcements out of Rome will not be available until an hour later where I am located. And that means that I will probably already be enroute to my day job and thus unable to update the website nor provide the usual notifications until the evening (US time).
The good news is this will only last a fortnight, then Europe makes the change too, and everything is back to normal (at least until the Fall, when the we go out of sync again for a short time :-)
