by Mikhail Popov 07 Oct '15

07 Oct '15

Hi all, The Analysis team would like to formally announce the addition of tile usage tracking to the Maps dashboard <http://searchdata.wmflabs.org/maps/>. The additions track daily tile usage & users by style and zoom level. We'd like to give a shot-out to Maps team's Yuri Astrakhan, who collaborated with us on the data extraction scripts. Teamwork is magic. Cheers, Mikhail Popov on behalf of the Analysis team

Announcing user engagement metrics for Search Metrics dashboard
by Mikhail Popov 05 Oct '15

05 Oct '15

Hi all, The Analysis team would like to formally announce the addition of a couple of metrics to the Search Metrics dashboard <http://searchdata.wmflabs.org/metrics/>. First, we added the Augmented Clickthroughs (the metric formerly known as User Satisfaction): http://searchdata.wmflabs.org/metrics/#kpi_augmented_clickthroughs This is an average between the clickthrough rate and the proportion of user sessions' dwell times passing a pre-specified threshold. Going forward, we plan on obtaining qualitative user-provided feedback which will allow us to use this metric to estimate User Satisfaction. Second, we're now using survival analysis methods to estimate and summarize page visit times: http://searchdata.wmflabs.org/metrics/#survival These metrics are the times at which we lose 10%, 25%, 50%, and 75% of our users on pages they got to from the search engine results page. For example, consistently only half of our users make it past the 75 second mark. We'd like to extend a special thanks to Erik Bernhardson, who was crucial in the implementation of the data collection mechanisms that enabled us to construct these metrics. Cheers, Mikhail Popov on behalf of the Analysis team

A/B test for common terms query
by Erik Bernhardson 05 Oct '15

05 Oct '15

David's work on the common terms query is merged and will be deploying this week. It's hidden behind a feature flag so no user visible change will occur. I thought we had decided on an A/B test to check the usefulness of this approach but I can't find anything in phab. So the question is, how do we want to AB test this? It will be easiest to run this test through our backend AB testing infrastructure, i think we just need to choose a sampling rate.
