Thank you.

Wikinews in Limburgish (li) still has not been added to Wikidata. Wikinews in Limburgisg has been created already on 15 November 2018...
Yep that's the subtask T209820, looks like it's got stuck with the deployment schedule around the US holiday, possibly moving forward on Monday 26th?
The statistics of the Limburgish Wikinews look like they need updating. It currently says there are 49 pages, while I think that should be more. Can they also be included here?
Standard behaviour when articles etc are imported
In most cases, it should be fixed automatically in a few weeks when the relevant maintenance script runs over all wikis
In this particular case, it's just a couple of days until the wiki gets recounted (Dec 1). Worst case scenario in other cases is a couple of weeks, since the script is run twice a month.
Since there are currently 799 non-redirects in the main namespace, and it looks like almost all of them (>95%?) are linked to other pages via a template, the article count of liwikinews should jump up to the high 700s when the wiki gets recounted this weekend.
If that doesn't happen, @Ooswesthoesbes, definitely make more noise about this (probably in a new Phabricator task).
Note that a main-namespace page must contain at least one [[wikilink]] (which may be provided via template transclusion) to get counted as an "article" (also known as a "content page"), so don't expect the count to increase all the way up to 799.
(As a final note, I will point out that the total page count of the wiki, currently at 786, cannot possibly be right, either, since it's less than 799. Although this is a curious situation, since this count is less often significantly wrong, it should also get fixed, along with most of the other on-wiki stats, when the wiki is recounted on Dec 1. We hope.)
I think we can consider this done. If there's any issue, reopen. If you want a configuration change, open a new task.
