I got the impression from this discussion that the mobile apps aren't currently in use so the CUs have had no experience working with them. It sounds like I was mistaken.
Toby, what UA data do CUs currently see from edits made through the mobile apps?
CUs, is the information that you're currently getting from edits from the new mobile apps a good balance the concerns raised previously in this discussion?

Hey folks -- we aren't considering changing any of the data that goes into checkuser. That tool will be unchanged.
This discussion only concerns backend logging EventLogging and page view analytics.
