Ah, I see the problem; someone patched it and never documented it.
We have documentation at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Page_view/Generalised_filters
of the generalised filters. There is also a log, on
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Page_view, of changes to the
pageview definition.
The intent behind both the transparent definition and the log is to
ensure that we know what is going /in/ the definition.
In this case, somebody has patched the definition
(
https://github.com/wikimedia/analytics-refinery-source/commit/cc0b6ed7e4f40…)
to include traffic from
outreach.wikimedia.org - a site that was very
deliberately and very explicitly excluded from the definition as it
was written.
There is no explanation of why this change was made, there is no
documentation of this change even existing outside the actual Java....
can someone please explain what this is for, and update all the
documentation to reflect that? And then could people be very, very
clear in future that it is expected there be a log of alterations you
make to high-level KPIs beyond the, you know, commit logs.

Is the pageviews_hourly table meant to contain pageviews according to
the new or old definition? If old, where can I find aggregates for the
new one?
