hello
should not web server logs (of requests) be published?

my native language is tatar and i would or i am going to write to
tatar wikipedia and say other people to write to it.
authors/managers/administrators of tatar texts are tatar people. for
that i think it is correct if tatar people can see web server logs. i
think this would not be bad for privacy of readers, because they would
see that logs are published, and can access wikipedia through proxy to
hide their ip address. ip-addresses of anonymous writers are already
published. if anonymouse readers want to hide their referer or search
keywords, they also can hide that by copy-pasting wikipedia article
url, and this also should be said shortly on every page and in privacy
page.
another advantage of this is that people could create custom analysers
of the logs.

i think logs should be divided with directory structure by years,
months, days, and probably hours.
