I think I'll leave the 'what else to do' to you professionals but agree that it's awesome data and would be nice to get some more out of it. Lisa may have some ideas/ know some folks in WPFashion. I know that she has been off and on editing fashion articles and looking into the groups on wiki.

Now about the social question I never have an issue opining ;) Reviews inline. Dario (copied in) may be interested in sharing from @Wikiresearch too?

A cool, if a bit technical, blog post from data analyst Abraham Mathew about Wikipedia statistics during Fashion Weeks.

The original post is on Abraham Mathew's personal blog: http://mathewanalytics.com/2015/08/03/wikipedia-and-the-fashion-weeks-a-look-at-usage-patterns/

It was also syndicated to popular R blog Rbloggers: http://www.r-bloggers.com/wikipedia-and-the-fashion-weeks-a-look-at-usage-patterns/

Advice on which to use would be appreciated :)

At least for our main channels I'd probably lean towards the personal blog/mathewanalytics link. the r-bloggers site is definitely the 'bigger' one but I worry the layout etc will be a lot less inviting despite it being the same post. It's a relatively difficult/technical to read layout. For a more technical audience like @Wikiresearch I'd use the r-bloggers link.

Possible social (Twitter):

FB/G+: 

• Data analyst Abraham Mathew makes some interesting findings in Wikipedia page view statistics during several Fashion Week events. [link]
