Off the top of my head, I would guess that about 20% of my searches on the office wiki give me results worth clicking on. 10% feels low.
Anecdotes == data, right? :P

Can you define search sessions, result sets, and clickthroughs?
I'm just guessing, but are we really not clicking on a search result on 90% of the result pages? I suspect that's https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T97310 though.

Hey all,
As you probably know, I've been tasked with building a data visualisation platform that works. I opted to look at third-party software rather than wrestle with Limn, for maintenance and speed reasons.
Still a long way to go - mostly on the back end, hooking up connectors to get the data sucked into Labs from our EventLogging schemas - but yesterday's work has produced something that looks a bit like https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/06/Dashboard_example.png
Key takeaways from this:
- The text, as it says, is in Markdown. If there are problems, it's
incredibly simple to fix. We can list outages and inaccuracies, explain where the data comes from, all the nice stuff 2. The visualisation is embedded JavaScript and can be resized, zoomed in- and out-of and highlighted easily. 3. Key statistics are called out in highlighted boxes using common iconographic elements. 4. It's reactive. IOW, if a new dataset is loaded on the server side with more up-to-date numbers while you're reading, no problem: the figures and graphic will, too. 5. The entire thing is 60 lines of code ;)
As the dropdown menu on the left suggests, there will be a lot of different panels and panes covering data from our different platforms, and subsets of that data. If you have suggestions for things from the EventLogging schemas you'd specifically like, let me know and I'll build them in!
(Moiz: you are absolutely welcome to have at the CSS and colour scheme, too :D)
