Re: [Analytics] Announcement - Mediawiki History Dumps

Hi Analytics People, The Wikimedia Analytics Team is pleased to announce the release of the most complete dataset we have to date to analyze content and contributors metadata: Mediawiki History [1] [2]. Data is in TSV format, released monthly around the 3rd of the month usually, and every new release contains the full history of metadata. The dataset contains an enhanced [3] and historified [4] version of user, page and revision metadata and serves as a base to Wiksitats API on edits, users and pages [5] [6]. We hope you will have as much fun playing with the data as we have building it, and we're eager to hear from you [7], whether for issues, ideas or usage of the data. Analytically yours, -- Joseph Allemandou (joal) (he / him) Sr Data Engineer Wikimedia Foundation [1] https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/mediawiki_history/readme.html [2] https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Analytics/Data_Lake/Edits/Mediawiki_his… [3] Many pre-computed fields are present in the dataset, from edit-counts by user and page to reverts and reverted information, as well as time between events. [4] As accurate as possible historical usernames and page-titles (as well as user-groups and blocks) is available in addition to current values, and are provided in a denormalized way to every event of the dataset.
