There already is a variable avalible on Special:Statistics to show the number of
users, and the number of files.

I've filed a separate Bug 5741 in response to requests at the Vietnamese Wikipedia.

This is fixed by the introduction of the {{PAGESINNS:ns}} and
{{PAGESINNAMESPACE:ns}} variables, but these variables are disabled at the
Wikimedia projects due to server load issues.

Marking FIXED. Getting this enabled on WMF is a different bug.
