Wikispore:Background jobs running

The last number in this API reply shows how many wiki pages are in the queue to be updated. It is the "background jobs" count https://wikispore.wmflabs.org/w/api.php?action=query&format=json&meta=siteinfo&siprop=statistics

When there are Cargo tables to update based on changes to wiki pages, that task is assigned to the background queue and increases the jobs number.

Opinion

Opinion from user:econterms: Someday an extension and Special page should show this number along with some explanation and diagnosis. The background number can skyrocket on some wikis, which is bad, and means Cargo queries can bring back obsolete information. That isn't happening on WikiSpore.
