19 posts held, back to 16 July 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 pageof Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
ERR is average views per post over the last 30 days divided by subscribers, the definition TGStat uses, so this figure is comparable with the one you will see elsewhere. It falls structurally as a channel grows: a high ERR on a small channel and a low one on a large channel describe reach mathematics, not quality. We publish the figure and the sample it came from and pass no verdict on it.
ER is defined industry-wide as (forwards + reactions + comments) ÷ views— note the denominator is views, not subscribers. Telegram’s public web preview carries views and reactions but not forward or comment counts, so the reaction rate above is the reactions term only and is therefore a floor: the true ER for this channel is higher by an amount we have not measured and will not estimate. It is computed over the 14 of 15 measured posts that carry a reaction reading, and over those same posts' views.

Views are a single reading per post, taken at the time above. A post published in the last day or two is still accumulating views, which pulls the 30-day average down slightly. That is a property of the standard definition rather than a fault in it, so we keep the definition rather than “correcting” the number into something nobody can reproduce.
Precision. Telegram publishes view counts on its public widget in short form — 8.12K, 3.7M — so any reading at or above 1,000 reaches us rounded to three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. Averages and rates derived from them are shown to the same precision rather than to the unit: a figure like 3,701,250 would assert digits nobody measured.
Reaction counts are published per emoji and rounded the same way, so a total below 1,000 is exact and a larger one is a sum that may carry a rounded component from each emoji above 1,000. Because it is a sum, it does not look rounded — read a large reaction total as three significant figures per contributing emoji rather than as the figure it prints.
85 reactions across 18 posts, in 5 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 43.5% of them.
| Reaction | Count | Share | Share, drawn |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🔥 | 37 | 43.5% | |
| ❤🔥 | 32 | 37.6% | |
| 👍 | 13 | 15.3% | |
| 🤔 | 2 | 2.35% | |
| 🙏 | 1 | 1.18% |
No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 18 of the 19 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 85reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 19 most recent posts we hold, published 16 July 2026 to 6 August 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.
Eastern Orthodoxy? 'Orthodox proofs' from Chalcedon undermine their own case (Brownson) What kind of mind appeals to Pope St Leo the Great and the Council of Chalcedon against the papacy? https://www.wmreview.org/p/brownson-orthodoxy-2-4

Eastern Orthodoxy? No, Pope Leo the Great is not a witness against papal primacy The 'Orthodox' priest whose work Orestes Brownson is critiquing next tries to claim that Pope St Leo the Great rejected papal primacy. Unsurprisingly, this is false: https://www.wmreview.org/p/brownson-orthodoxy-2-3

Devastating refutation of "sedevacantism". Wow. Maybe time to close up shop. On the other hand: Any daily Novus Ordo attendee who realises the problems and turns to the traditional rite also stops going to the NO. The SSPX historically told everyone not to attend the indult either. "The Indult Mass," it said "is not for traditional Catholics." Someone who concludes sede vacante may also stop attending Mass as oft…

Last week, we visited the Oratory of the Holy Face in Tours, France. Léon Papin-Dupont – declared Venerable by Pope Pius XII – is buried there, as is Sr Marie de Saint-Pierre, whose revelation he helped promote. Ven. Dupont also worked miracles, and was known as "The Apostle of the Holy Face" and "The Holy Man of Tours".

Following on from the "Episcopal Throne" of Tours, a friend sent me this: "On the topic of episcopal thrones, check out this nightmare from St Hedwig's Cathedral in Berlin." Remember, that the dogmatic R&R apologists tell us that we must accept their ideas, and cannot hold Leo XIV to lack authority, because otherwise there would be no successors of the Apostles left. And the men they tell us are the formal success…
Sean Johnson asked on Substack, regarding the extract from Fr Palmieri (below): "How Do R&R Apologists Respond to this Argument?" The full reply to Mr Johnson's question is linked here: https://substack.com/@sdwright/note/c-305585964

'They miserably deceive themselves who think they can adhere to the Roman See while resisting the Pontiff' – Fr Palmieri SJ Fr Domenico Palmieri SJ directly refutes the 'recognise and resist’ ecclesiology of the Gallicans: https://www.wmreview.org/p/palmieri-xxx-ii

This is the "episcopal throne" or "cathedra" in the Cathedral of Tours, France. We are told that Leo XIV etc. must be legitimate Popes, because otherwise there would be no more formal successors to the Apostles. But this "cathedra" is a good example of how these "formal successors" view themselves and their authority. If it was a humble stool or wicker chair, it would be better. It would be fine. But this is a del…

Showing the 12 most recent of 19 posts we hold for @wmreview. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Citation-graph rank — 553,212 of 1,481,306entries in the measured graph. A weighted position computed from the forward and mention edges below — republished posts weigh more than named mentions — and recomputed periodically, over the whole graph. Published only as this ordinal position, never as a score: a position is a fact, and a score printed beside one channel’s name would read as a verdict this register does not make. The two counts beneath stay separate for the same reason mentions are never summed with forwards anywhere else on this page — a named-by count costs nothing to manufacture.

Channels on the register that have forwarded this channel's posts into their own feed.
Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 15 August 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
