Re: [Analytics] [Multimedia] Filtering out outliers in data used to generate tsvs

Any data on that graph before Match 18th is junk that came from (often partial) runs on my laptop, at times on internet connections of very questionable quality. March 18th onwards is exclusively run on cloudbees. You can see right away that those cloudbees figures are a lot more stable. When we have more data in a few days I'll update the SQL query to remove the misleading figures that came from local development. In fact we should make sure to avoid running this test locally against mediawiki.org or any production wiki where EventLogging is turned on from now on, otherwise we'll pollute the stats.
