Parent article

After seeing a few comments of at the help desks about the confusing links to Essays....as in different templates and different pages linking to 3 different essays about essays. I have taken the time to make a proper parent article at the main target Wikipedia:Essays (as per 2012 discussion ) and fixed the linking problems. Parent article now links and mentions the points of the main essays about essays. Talks about the status of essays, there creation and modification, and finding essays. Attributions are located at Wikipedia talk:Essays. Enjoy -- Moxy (talk) 19:37, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Why are there two lists?

Pacerier (talk) 17:01, 28 February 2016 (UTC): ❝

Why are there two lists of "Wikipedia essays by impact"? :
  1. https://tools.wmflabs.org/enwp10/cgi-bin/list2.fcgi?run=yes&projecta=Wikipedia_essays
  2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Essays/Assessment/Links
Does both lists have the same definition of "impact"?
Is the second list simply an archive page of what was previously generated by the first link?
