Hi everyone,
Tried Wikimetric today and it looks like a good start to me. Some feedback:
- Google/Twitter account, should be something WMF like the labs/Gerrit LDAP
Yes, we will migrate to Mediawiki OAuth once it's stable.
- Should use https by default
Agree
- O wait, invalid certificate, filed bug at https://bugzilla.wikimedia.**
org/show_bug.cgi?id=53892https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53892
Yes, because WMF has not yet figured out a policy for SSL certificates in Labs.
- Only English? It should be multilingual like all our software. The
people at translatewiki will be happy to translate for you
Yes, but rather wait with that until we have reached a stable version 1.0 but tracking at https://mingle.corp.wikimedia.org/projects/analytics/cards/1143
- Upload csv user lists is not very convenient. Are you planning to come
up with a easier/better system?
What is not convenient?
- Project "en" is a bit weird. You're probably using <project>wiki_p for
the database. Can you add a link to available projects? Or how to construct it? Say for example I want the German Wikivoyage.
Yes, some explanation on how to construct it would be useful.
- Description seems to be missing for some fields at
http://metrics.wmflabs.org/**metrics/http://metrics.wmflabs.org/metrics/
Which fields in particular?
- You could probably grab namespaces on the fly from the Mediawiki api
Sure, but why? we do have a validation step that should verify whether the report you want to run is valid.
- Can you add an option to give output per time period (month would be
nice)?
We are working on roll-up of results, should be released shortly.
- Can you add bytes uploaded as a metric?
Created https://mingle.corp.wikimedia.org/projects/analytics/cards/1141; I can't promise this because there are more urgent metrics that we would like to implement first.
- Can you split out the result per namespace?
Tracking at https://mingle.corp.wikimedia.org/projects/analytics/cards/1142
- http://metrics.wmflabs.org/**supporthttp://metrics.wmflabs.org/supportcontains a to the empty page
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/**Wikimetrics/FAQhttp://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimetrics/FAQ. Can you make that link https by default?
Sure, and please help us in creating the FAQ :)
- Where is the code? Can we submit new metrics? See for example
http://toolserver.org/~**reports/?wiki=nl.wikipedia.orghttp://toolserver.org/~reports/?wiki=nl.wikipedia.orgfor a similar service
Code is available at https://git.wikimedia.org/log/analytics%2Fwikimetrics/HEAD and https://github.com/wikimedia/analytics-wikimetrics
- Are you planning to offer some visual output besides csv/json? See for
example https://toolserver.org/~**emijrp/wlm/stats.phphttps://toolserver.org/~emijrp/wlm/stats.php
I would love to see integration with Limn but we have not yet made commitments to do so. The output format should be general enough to make it easy to use for a visualizations.
- I see you have sql queries. What tables are available? All (non-private)
tables like on the Toolserver and Toollabs?
We are querying the labsdb databases, so all tables in those databases are available.
- Do you have some metrics on the usage of wikimetrics? :-)
Not yet :(
Maarten
