First version of Wikimedia Cloud Services Edits dashboard is available for use - Cloud

18 Dec 2019


      Hello everyone,
The first version of the Wikimedia Cloud Services Edits dashboard
(wmcs-edits) is available for use at https://wmcs-edits.wmflabs.org. Using
this dashboard you will able to see three types (tabular, time-series, and
hierarchical) of visualization of the percentage of edits coming to ~870
Wikimedia wikis from Wikimedia Cloud Services
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Cloud_Services_Introduction
every month. Here are the top two highlights from November:
- 38.7% edits came to Wikimedia wikis via Wikimedia Cloud Services.
   - The top three wikis with a higher percentage of Wikimedia cloud
   services edits are Wikidata (83%), Arabic Wikipedia (4.7%), and Wikimedia
   Commons (3.5%).
This tool has been set up by the Developer Advocacy team with help from the
Analytics team and their infrastructure for setting up dashboards. We hope
that the WMCS edits dashboard will help us learn a lot about how and where
the Wikimedia Cloud Services infrastructure contributes to Wikimedia
projects, the use of bots and tools by Wikimedia communities, their overall
health, and a lot more.
If you’ve any questions, there is anything unclear, or if you have feedback
to share, please drop a comment on the Phabricator task:
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T226663. We will take into account all
your feedback in the next iteration of this tool, for which the work will
begin in January!
Cheers,
