+ Analytics
Tilman, this is great. I find myself enjoying the stats/graphs and
analysis/commentary equally and so far I don't see anything that isn't very
helpful. Two considerations:
- Two app-level metrics I would like to see moving forward would be a
number showing a daily/monthly visit count divided by the install base (if
it is achievable): 15% of Android users visit every day, 45% visit every
month. Along those lines, I am very interested to see the retention data
that Android is now collecting.
- Ultimately, I think 30 day views (or 28 day views) are less subject to
noise than 7-day.
- On a related note, so far the weekly cadence is great. It might also
be that after 3 weeks we realize that a biweekly or monthly cadence is all
we really need.
At some point, we will have to solidify this so that we can automate
some/most of it. Perhaps we should chat offline about what your tolerance
is in that regard.

Hi all,
here is the weekly look at our most important readership metrics.
As laid out last week, the main purpose is to raise awareness about how
these are developing, call out the impact of any unusual events in the
preceding week, and facilitate thinking about core metrics in general.
We will iterate on the presentation (e.g. to better take seasonality into
account, in particular including year-over-year comparisons) and eventually
want to create dashboards for those which are not already available in that
form already. Feedback and discussion welcome.
(All numbers below are averages for September 14-20, 2015 unless otherwise
noted.)
Pageviews:
Total: 523 million/day
Context (April 2015-September 2015):
Pageviews were down 4.3% from last week, a somewhat noticeable drop (for a
more dramatized view, see the Vital Signs dashboard
<https://vital-signs.wmflabs.org/#projects=all/metrics=Pageviews>).
Desktop: 58.1%
Mobile web: 40.7%
Apps: 1.2%
Global North ratio: 77.4% of total pageviews
Context (April 2015-September 2015):
Unique app users
Android: 1.303 million /day
Context (January 2015-September 2015):
A slight rise in the last two weeks, but we’re not seeing a clear effect
of the recent media promotion for the Android app (blog post
<https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/09/10/wikipedia-app-new-navigation-features/>
on September 10, media coverage
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Communications_committee/Press_clippings/2015#September>
on September 10, 11 and 13) - compare the bump in April around the time
when the app was featured in the Play store and the media promotion for the
iOS app happened (with much wider media coverage
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Communications_committee/Press_clippings/2015#April>
).
iOS: 319k / day
Context (January 2015-September 2015):
No news here.
New app installations
Android: 44,066/day (installs per device, from Google Play, September
14-19)
Context (Aug 21, 2015 - Sep 21, 2015):
One is tempted to see a bit of a bump after the start of the media
promotion on September 10 (concretely, average daily installs in the time
from September 10-19 were 2.5% higher than in the time from August
21-September 9), but in the end we can’t really be certain whether it had
an effect. (Compare again very visible peak in April in the year-over-year
graph
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikipedia_Android_app_-_daily_installs_by_device,_Sep_11,_2014_-_Sep_11,_2015_(Google_Play).png>
I posted last week.)
The drop on Sunday September 20 seems to be a problem with Google Play’s
statistics (several other metrics like uninstall numbers show a similar
drop) and not something we need to worry about; I left it out from the
average above as an outlier.
iOS: 4,839/day (download numbers from App Annie)
Context (September 2014-September 2015):
