Readers contributions via Android
by Moushira Elamrawy 22 Dec '16

22 Dec '16

Greetings, The Android team has earlier started a consultation [0] several months ago to collect input on the type of contributions that readers can carry out in order to help editors and further engage them in our projects, while still being helpful to our editors. The ideas that have had the most discussion from that phase, have been further elaborated on with clear wireframes for demonstration. Please check the ideas here <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Readers_contributions_via_Android>, [1] and add your feedback to the page. Kindly note that this is an experiment discussion and an attempt to understand your needs and perspectives. None of these ideas is so far in the planning or research phase. This is the first time the reading team is discussing ideas at the earliest stage possible and we welcome your own, very early ideas that are discussed as possibilities. This awesome work has been made possible by Nirzar, Rita, Dmitry and Jon Katz. Looking forward to your feedback.

Wikipedia app v5.3.2 released to app store
by Joshua Minor 20 Dec '16

20 Dec '16

Hello mobile Wikimedians, We've just released an update for Wikipedia for iOS to the App Store[1]. This version includes support for iOS's Dynamic Type setting, which allows users to increase the size of text, not just in articles, but of buttons and other UI elements. This is a major piece of the accessibility work we kicked off in October[2], and allows users with poor vision to more easily navigate and read Wikipedia. This version also includes a major database upgrade, which should continue to improve the speed and stability of the Explore feed, Saved pages and user's local history. Cheers, Josh Minor PM, Wikipedia for iOS [1] - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wikipedia/id324715238?mt=8 [2] - Described on list here: https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/mobile-l/2016-October/010396.html

Commons app (Android) update - v1.41
by Josephine Lim 15 Dec '16

15 Dec '16

Hi all, We're excited to announce that we've rolled out several updates and bugfixes for the Commons Android app[1] over the past couple of months. Some of the major ones include: - Automatic addition of geocoding template if uploaded image is geotagged - Category suggestions based on the title entered for the image - New, more detailed tutorial to educate new contributors on what types of images should or should not be uploaded (special thanks to Pine for sharing his Commons educational script which was used as the basis for this) - Check for whether or not the file already exists on Commons, to prevent upload of duplicates Additionally, the kind folks at translatewiki.net are helping us set up a translation project for our app, so hopefully localization should improve in the near future. Thank you all for your support and encouragement thus far! Feedback, bug reports, and suggestions are always welcome on our GitHub page[2]. :) [1]: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.free.nrw.commons [2]: https://github.com/commons-app/apps-android-commons/issues/ -- Regards, Josephine

Fwd: Readership metrics for the timespan until December 4, 2016
by Zareen Farooqui 13 Dec '16

13 Dec '16

Hi all, Please see below for the Readership metrics report for the timespan until December 4, 2016. Zareen Farooqui ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Zareen Farooqui <zareenf(a)gmail.com> Date: Mon, Dec 12, 2016 at 8:45 PM Subject: Readership metrics for the timespan until December 4, 2016 To: mobile-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org Cc: schang(a)wikimedia.org, slien(a)wikimedia.org, wikitech-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org, analytics(a)lists.wikimedia.org, fr-online(a)wikimedia.org Hi all, This resumes the usual look <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Readership_metrics_reports> at our most important readership metrics. This time we can report that daily pageviews are up 4.8% (since the last report), with an interesting recent peak which meant that November’s pageviews surpassed those of November 2015 (coincidentally also) by 4.8%, after October had already seen a 2.1% year-over-year increase. The iOS Wikipedia app saw increased downloads, while the Android app’s install base has stopped its previous downward trend. As laid out earlier <https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/mobile-l/2015-September/009773.html>, the main purpose is to raise awareness about how these metrics are developing, call out the impact of any unusual events, and facilitate thinking about core metrics in general. As always; feedback and discussion welcome. Week-over-week and month-over-month changes are now being recorded on the Product page <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Product#Reading> at MediaWiki.org. This edition of the report covers a timespan of eighteen weeks. Some other recent items of interest, in case they didn’t already catch your attention: - The WMF Reading team published its quarterly review presentation <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Reading_and_Comm_Tech_Quarterly_Rev…> for Q1 2016-17 (July-September), which includes lots of traffic and usage data. - At the Foundation’s August metrics meeting <https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File%3AAugust_2016_Monthly_…>, the Reading team gave an update on longer-term traffic trends since 2013. (TL;DR: Overall pageviews have been flat to slightly declining, mobile has been steadily rising but recently slowed down, desktop has declining during these three years. However, total pageviews have been slightly increasing year-over-year in the last few months.) See the chart below, updated with data until November: [image: Wikimedia monthly pageviews (desktop+mobile), 2013-2016 (version December 2016).png] In particular, as mentioned, the number of total pageview saw year-over-year increases of +2.1% for October and +4.8% in November, in contrast to e.g. the -10.5% we had for May 2015-May 2016. Now to the usual data. (All numbers below are averages for August 1-December 4, 2016 unless otherwise noted.) Pageviews Total: 529 million/day (+4.76% from the previous report timeframe, with corrected numbers for anomalously high traffic on some main pages <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T141506>) Context (April 2015-December 2016): See also the Vital Signs dashboard <https://analytics.wikimedia.org/dashboards/vital-signs/#projects=all/metric…> (Small caveats: iOS app’s pageviews were undercounted by about 1.6 million/day from mid September to early November due to a bug <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T148663>.) Overall pageviews increased steadily during the timespan of this report aside from the week ending October 30th (right before Halloween) and the end of November. There appears to be a peak in pageviews in November. To facilitate our understanding of which traffic movements are seasonal and which may indicate lasting changes, here is a chart overlaying the total pageview numbers back to May 2013 (the earliest time for which we have data according to the current pageview definition): The blue line indicates a non-seasonal rise peaking around November 12. We checked whether this peak came from a particular country and were able to exclude that possibility. Wikimedia Daily Pageviews from US Pageviews in US do not show any drastic changes (even around the time of the US elections). Wikimedia Daily Pageviews from Mexico In Mexico, there seems to been a huge drop starting October 27th (perhaps some sort of local outage). Wikimedia Daily Pageviews from Ecuador Ecuador shows a huge spike on October 30th, followed by a drop for several days. Desktop: 54.1% (previous report: 54.1%) Mobile web: 44.8% (previous report: 44.6%) Apps: 1.1% (previous report: 1.3%) (missing some iOS pageviews, cf. above) Context (December 2015 - December 2016): Overall mobile percentage is similar to the last report, but we did see a small increase (besides one week in August) until late September. As a reminder, mobile already has a solid majority in terms of unique devices, cf. below. Global North ratio: 75.3% of total pageviews (previous report: 75.5%) Context (January - December 2016): There is a slight increase in Global North percentage in late October and November, but overall this number is relatively steady. NB: We are currently rethinking this metric and might replace it with a different country selection constructed as part of the work on the New Readers project. Unique devices See the announcement blog post <https://blog.wikimedia.org/2016/03/30/unique-devices-dataset/> from March for background and details on this recently introduced metric. These estimated numbers are provided for all Wikimedia language projects (separately for the desktop and mobile web version). Because of the instrumentation method, there is no global metric for all projects and all languages, but following some recent discussions it is now planned <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T138027> to extend it to a cross-language global metric per project at least. For now, we track the daily numbers of the English Wikipedia in this report. Daily unique devices estimate for English Wikipedia: - Mobile web: 33.9 million (previous report: 32.2 million) - Desktop: 24.1 million (previous report: 22.3 million) - Total: 57.9 million (previous report: 54.5 million) - Average mobile web ratio: 58.7% (previous report: 59.3%) Context (January- December 2016): This metric hasn’t existed long enough yet to get a good sense of what yearly seasonalities may exist, but since the last report time frame daily unique desktop devices show an increasing upward trend until early November, where there is a peak and then an apparent drop (which parallels the peak in pageviews). To understand the peak in daily unique devices, we plotted the ratio of daily pageviews to daily unique devices. There is a small bump in the mobile ratio in early November, but it is too small to fully explain the rise in pageviews around this time. New app installations Android: 19.9k/day (+1.21% from the previous report) Daily installs per device, from Google Play Context (last seven months): Download numbers increased in September and have sustained previous levels so far, possibly helped by the app’s inclusion on the Education category page <https://play.google.com/store/apps/category/EDUCATION> in Google’s Play Store. There was an additional bump in mid September (reason unknown). The number of daily uninstalls decreased slightly. During the timespan of the previous report, installs had markedly decreased (except for a so far unexplained bump during two weeks in July), which combined with the high uninstall numbers had caused the app’s install base to shrink from 15.5 million on March 31 to 15.1 million at the beginning of August. This trend has now been stopped, although the number was still at 15.1 million on November. (Google has since discontinued <https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/7003402#acti…> this “current installs” metric in favor of a new “installs on active devices" metric.) iOS: 6.35k/day (+99.9% from the previous report) Download numbers from App Annie Daily downloads (with the largest countries broken out): [image: Wikipedia iOS app daily downloads by country, Aug 1 ~ Dec 7, 2016 (App Annie).png] The iOS Wikipedia app was promoted on iTunes in September, with huge impact (twice as many downloads than resulted from a comparable promotion in September 2015). Total daily downloads remained on a higher level afterwards (4.8k/day during the last week of this report, Nov 28-Dec 4). Around October 24, downloads from the US spiked, possibly helped by some organic media coverage such as this <http://thetechbeard.com/best-free-ios-10-widgets/>. On November 11, we registered an extra 9000 downloads from Sweden, for unknown reasons (no app store promotions or media coverage that we are aware of). App user retention Android: 16.4% (previous report: 16.7%) (Ratio of app installs opened again 7 days after installation, among all installed one week before a date that falls within this report. 1:100 sample) Context (last seven months): As remarked in earlier reports, this data is a bit too noisy for drawing conclusions about whether retention changed significantly between different releases. Retention appears to have dropped somewhat in September after having gradually grown earlier during the timespan of the last report and after. iOS: N/A <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T126693> (We recently began measuring this on the iOS app - using the same method as on Android, restricted to users who opt-in to data collection - but there is not enough data yet.)

by Joshua Minor 09 Dec '16

09 Dec '16

Hello, Beta testers[1] should now be able to install v5.3.2 of the Wikipedia app via TestFlight. This version brings two major updates: - Support for variable size text throughout the app, based on the user's OS level Text Size accessibility setting (aka "Dynamic Type") - Improved database, which should result in improved performance and stability, particularly using the Explore and Saved tabs Yesterday we also closed our first survey of app users, to better understand their needs and motivations. We look forward to analyzing those responses, and hope to share high level results in the next quarter. Many thanks to the thousands of users who answered our question. Thanks, Josh Minor PM, Wikipedia app for iOS [1] - Sign up here to become a tester: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/19flzJ3lObZLfN5gKv69BZWkeouH7Vuznykk6q-O6xR…
