Anyone else know anything about the fate of the community health metrics kit? The wiki page still says it's expected to be launched in 2019.

Hey Joe,
whatever happened with this? Is it still being worked on?

Hello everyone - apologies for cross-posting! TL;DR: We would like your feedback on our Metrics Kit project. Please have a look and comment on Meta-Wiki: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_health_initiative/Metrics_kit


The Wikimedia Foundation's Trust and Safety team, in collaboration with the Community Health Initiative, is working on a Metrics Kit designed to measure the relative "health"[1] of various communities that make up the Wikimedia movement: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_health_initiative/Metrics_kit

The ultimate outcome will be a public suite of statistics and data looking at various aspects of Wikimedia project communities. This could be used by both community members to make decisions on their community direction and Wikimedia Foundation staff to point anti-harassment tool development in the right direction. 

We have a set of metrics we are thinking about including in the kit, ranging from the ratio of active users to active administrators, administrator confidence levels, and off-wiki factors such as freedom to participate. It's ambitious, and our methods of collecting such data will vary.

Right now, we'd like to know:
* Which metrics make sense to collect? Which don't? What are we missing?
* Where would such a tool ideally be hosted? Where would you normally look for statistics like these?
* We are aware of the overlap in scope between this and Wikistats <https://stats.wikimedia.org/v2/#/all-projects> — how might these tools coexist?

Your opinions will help to guide this project going forward. We'll be reaching out at different stages of this project, so if you're interested in direct messaging going forward, please feel free to indicate your interest by signing up on the consultation page.

Looking forward to reading your thoughts.

best,
Joe

P.S.: Please feel free to CC me in conversations that might happen on this list!

[1] What do we mean by "health"? There is no standard definition of what makes a Wikimedia community "healthy", but there are many indicators that highlight where a wiki is doing well, and where it could improve. This project aims to provide a variety of useful data points that will inform community decisions that will benefit from objective data.
