Sometimes, when we are changing {{review}} to {{publish}} (Like this: https://zh.wikinews.org/?diff=84147&oldid=84146 ), the total number of articles shown in https://zh.wikinews.org/wiki/Special:%E7%BB%9F%E8%AE%A1%E4%BF%A1%E6%81%AF will decrease by 1, which should be a bug

Accidentally selected wrong bug number
zhwikinews counts an article if it has an internal link. Solution would be to change $wgArticleCountMethod to something that isn't counting internal links.
The choices are, an article is: Any page, Any page with a link, or any page with a comma.
Is this something that's still wanted?
I would suggest any page, as internal links will not always appear in an news article.
Typically we ask for a link to a community discussion about the change, to make sure the community understands what is going to change, and agree with the change.
