At some point, probably soon, my skills will no longer be needed on the analytics team. When that happens I plan to switch focus to helping popularize this kind of content. Probably by contributing to or forking Lyra: http://idl.cs.washington.edu/projects/lyra/
Yes very few people are going to use it at first. But eventually we can make this kind of knowledge creation as smooth as article editing.

This... is... amazing!! The idea of commonly seeing these on Wikipedia pages fills me with immense joy!
It seems to me like we might be able to kick off a big project to create and promote useful templates and guides for creating these. The dataviz movement is very popular among designers and journalists, and they're always looking for tools, lessons and data to practise on. Are there any existing efforts to popularise this, or would anyone like to help me do
so?

Thank you Jane [[user:Jhoffswell]], the VegaJS team, and
[[user:Primaler]]
who designed the original graph!
P.S. See graph demo page for examples and tutorial links https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Graph/Demo
P.P.S. The "click to open a page" feature is still missing in Graphs extension, but is on my todo list. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines New messages to: Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org javascript:; Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-request@lists.wikimedia.org javascript:;
