We've added section-level discussion statistics for comment count and participant count.
However, all we expose at the page level is the location of the latest comment.
It might be useful for people to get a sense for the activity of a page if we also showed at least the "X people are commenting" statistic at the page-level as well. It's technically pretty simple to do, since we're already basically doing all the work for each section separately.

GBasha-WMF was looking for a way to find this information, and it occurred to me that it was sort of strange we weren't already exposing it...

Of course these counts will only cover un-archived conversations, which is somewhat arbitrary based on local archiving policy and whether an archiving bot is running.
In this example, we were interested in how many people had participated in total (including archives). That is possible for us to count but less trivial.
