Re: [Analytics] Calculating page views for projects in other languages

James seeks a one page overview of most read articles for any wiki/project. A list of articles per project could be retrieved from the mediawiki API. I did something similar with list of articles per category (incl subcat, x levels deep). Perl script on request. Then the machine readable version of grok could be used to retrieve article counts. (see Dario's comment) However this might now scale well to 1(0),000's of projects and 100,000's pages. In the somewhat longer run I see two developments that might warrant putting this on hold: 1) The new analytics cluster will be used to aggregate page and image views. (Another use case would be aggregating image views per donating GLAM institute) Which aggregations precisely better be determined once the infrastructure is available, and capacity is known. 2) There are scripts to aggregate Domas' hourly page view feeds into monthly files. These aggregates are so much smaller, after cruft removal only 2Gb per month, without losing hourly resolution, easy to download and archive/process somewhere else. http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2011-August/054644.html These need final work, I spoke to long time dev. wikimedian EMW at Wikimania and he might be interested to take this upon him, starting October. From these aggregates the 1(0),000 of projects overviews could be generated in a batch process, mind you after month completed.

Subject: Re: [Analytics] Calculating page views for projects in other languages James, can you expand on this request? If you are interested in per-article pageview stats you can use: http://stats.grok.se/ For example: http://stats.grok.se/fr/201207/Paris A machine readable version: http://stats.grok.se/json/fr/201207/Paris Dario On Jul 20, 2012, at 9:38 AM, Sumana Harihareswara wrote: for yourself. Given the fact that there is an existing code base I would say that your best bet is to study that and tweak it your own requirements. If you have specific technical questions then there are enough people within the different wikimedia communities that can help you. _______________________________________________ Analytics mailing list Analytics(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/analytics _______________________________________________ Analytics mailing list Analytics(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/analytics
