Besides the existing Meta-wiki page that Nemo seems to prefer, it might be
also worth reviewing and comparing the standard definition used for
readership data (pageviews, unique devices...), which I believe is encoded
at [1]. And perhaps also the conceptual work that originally went into it
[2] (although I believe we since deviated from it by e.g. including chapter
wikis in the pageview data).

Hey everyone!
As you probably know, the Wikimedia cluster includes not just "normal"
wikis like English Wikipedia and Albanian Wiktionary, but odd ones like the Wikimedia
Belgium chapter website <https://be.wikimedia.org>, Test Wikidata
<https://test.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Main_Page>, and the English
Wikipedia Working Group on Ethnic and Cultural Edit Wars wiki
<https://wg-en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page>.
As far as I know, however, there's no standard definition of "normal" wiki
to use when doing analysis.
So I've started meta:Research:Wiki
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wiki> with draft definitions of
"public wikis" and "content wikis", along with some initial
documentation
about wiki metadata (names, project groups, etc.) which I plan to continue
to work on.
I encourage you to edit or comment on the talk page!
