Steven, This is really great data, esp considering our baseline for 1 ns0 edit within 24 hours is ~25%. This type of data helps push our understanding of how users come into the system. When Dario gets back, we should take a look at these anon account creators to see what their UMAPI stats are -- I'm expecting their edits in 24 hours would be very high, like maybe 90%.

Another quick update: I've gone ahead and added the "anoneditwarning" campaign to the other nine-largest Wikipedias (de, pl, fr, es, pt, zh, ja, it, and ru). Should be interesting to see if we get the same ~10% of accounts coming from this notice.

The campaigns extension does one thing: if you add "campaign=example" to a link pointing at the account creation form, it logs the campaign name at the time of signup. This capability has been around a long time in some form or another, but we disabled it so we could get to work on our redesign of account creation and login. Now that's it's finished, we wanted to make it available again. There's more in the documentation I linked to above, but the general point is that this gives us a low cost, minimally invasive way to figure out how many people are coming to sign up via a particular avenue. Among our first test cases, my team would really like to know if significant numbers of people are signing up via the links English Wikipedia puts in system messages directed at those viewing semi-protected pages and anonymous editors. I've put up a proposal about this on-wiki at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)#Let.27s_fi… If you have any questions about how campaigns work and how they might be applied elsewhere, please speak up. :) -- Steven Walling https://wikimediafoundation.org/ -- Steven Walling https://wikimediafoundation.org/ _______________________________________________ EE mailing list EE(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/ee
