wprov didn't seem to show up as a parameter in looking at the query field on an hour of logs on en.m.wikipedia.org via Hadoop, so I think we're okay there.

As for that additional data point, that's a good idea. Bernd, Dmitry, how about we do: sfi (image) and sft (text) ?

We're going to use the following format:

?wprov=<3_char_feature><platform_one_char><major_version_of_feature_uint>

For the first version on iOS, this will be

?wprov=safi1

And Android:

?wprov=safa1

Thanks for the closing the loop on this. Dan, Adam – have you guys considered tagging the type of “share”? I expect “image shares” will have higher engagement/click-through than “text shares”, if that’s a data point you want to collect explicitly, you’ll want to pass a different value to 3_char_feature (assuming that’s possible).

Is the new parameter going to be in the next beta build?

Okay, we'll plan on wprov.

How about 'wprov'?

I'd really rather this be either something that's totally not understandable by the user (e.g. ?saf=1), or something that is clearly understandable (e.g. ?appshareafact=1).

Ha! I'm cool with 'provenance' if no one objects.

Oof, only that it is ugly! :)

Can you just call it ‘provenance', or are you trying to be more future proof?

I pinged on Phabricator at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T90606 about modeling after that patch. That sort of approach should avoid cache fragmentation.

As for parameter name, 'wmfxan' is short and I think would avoid collisions. Any problems with this parameter name?

2. What about caching? 

Is this page: http://wikipedia.org/BarackObama?some_param=some-value being served from the cache as it should be?

The file download parameter was handled via this patch: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/120617/ 

Seems like an analogous scenario.
