Site Statistics - Wiltshire OPC Project

September 2025: OPC’s and transcribers uploaded 56 items to parish pages (including updated documents)
October 2025: New and updated documents added as we go through October.

New images and galleries are added to the site on a regular basis.
The amount of images in each gallery will vary from subject to subject. We are always working on new items and information to add to the site and currently hold a large of amount of items to be loaded (however much more information is available elsewhere to be gathered in and processed).

We are currently working on a census transcribing programme as a priority, this is coming along pretty well considering we have a small team working on this. We are also reviewing documents under copyright and General Data Protection Regulations. This may mean that some items will no longer be available to the website until they have been re-transcribed.
We have many items to be processed probably in the region of 3000 items, sadly a slow process to check
To see what items are in the process of being transcribed please take a look at the Coming Soon page

At the beginning of each month the site holdings list is updated to show what can be found on parish pages and elsewhere on the site
At present we have over 29400 items of interest published on parish pages.
Items are annotated with either Submitted or Revised.
Parishes A-E – as of 1st October 2025
Parishes F-J – as at 1st October 2025
Parishes K-O – as at 1st October 2025
Parishes P-R – as at 1st October 2025
Parishes S – as at 1st October 2025
Parishes T-U – as as 1st October 2025
Parishes V-Z – as of 1st October 2025
The date of when any item was updated can be found at the foot of the published document. The original upload date is in the left hand column, the date when the item was uploaded with changes is in the right hand date column.
Note: Something has gone wrong with the lists – am currently working through checking the information is correct – those items highlighted in blue have been checked and are correct and current. All other items the uploaded information needs checking but will take awhile to go through as there are thousands of entries to check through. The content of the published documents is not affected by this.

We currently have 60 OPCs and 1 OPC/Consultant who cover between them 143 of the 334 parishes/pages available. You May view the list here: OPCs and Vacancies
We also have 5 transcribers registered (not all active at present). We have 9 specific task holders of which 7 are site administrators.
The site currently has over 5280 registered users at present.
We do not have a figure for the number of times the site has been visited.

Our Facebook Page has over 2090 members. 8 are Admin or task holders.
Our Facebook page has members interests lists and other useful items within its files section. Discussion topics can vary each day.
We also feature other significant or interesting items relevant to the county that occurred Nationally or even Globally.
Above all the Facebook page allows everyone to discuss things from brickwall dilemmas to old fashioned words that have their roots in the county. Did you know for example that the expression “different as chalk from cheese” originates from the geology of the county. Many shared items from other Wiltshire interest Facebook Pages are featured often.

At present our “We Will Remember Them Calendar” has over 16200 entries covering conflicts from the English Civil War to present day conflicts. (This figure will be slightly lower once our latest search/cross reference project has been completed
It also includes retired military personnel and those civilians who died due to enemy action including prisoners of war. It also includes members of the Emergency Services who have given their lives whilst serving the county.

Our website Maintenance Fund has now been running for several years and every penny (after funding site fees) is used for maintaining the website. The latest accounts may be viewed via the information tab at the top of the page.
