as well as the ticket tracking work on a Wikidata
analytics dashboard
[3]. However, after searching there and other usual places [4, 5, 6], I
have not found a chart suitable for an "apples-to-apples" comparison
between Wikidata and Wikipedia along the lines of Howie's famous graph.
You should start including Meta-Wiki in your "usual places". ;-)

Which is a slightly different way to look at the matter but tells the
same story. Is that good enough, or do you necessarily want to replicate
the same old graph?
Note that I'm not sure apple-to-apple comparisons between Wikidata and
Wikipedia are possible at all. For instance, does a sitelink edit
performed from the sitelink dialog on a client wiki count as activation?
