I would love it if people on this list or elsewhere would start identifying the highest
value reports from wikistats. We can also use traffic data to figure out the most popular
pages, but this doesn't always mean highest value.
The thing I used to use
stats.wikimedia.org most often for is browser usage statistics.
However this with mixed feelings because I know it's user-agent parsing logic and how
it's become dated.
I know we store the UA in Hadoop (right?) and we preprocess it with the ua-parser library
(which I trust). We just need a good dashboard to get continuous insight into this data.
Is this data presented in one of the current analytics dashboards? [1]
Right now I'm flying blind and this has stagnated many different projects and
initiatives because I can't trust the data. Resulting in either questionable
decisions, stalled issues, or using third-party data instead.
