WIkimetrics and Commons
by Pine W 28 Apr '16

28 Apr '16

Hi Wikimetricians, 1. Does Wikimetrics count files uploaded to Commons as new pages? 2. Does Wikimetrics count new versions of files that are uploaded to Commons over old versions as edits? 3. Is there an automated way to see how many pageviews and thumbnail views happened to pages and Commons files after those pages and Commons files were touched by editors who are noted in a Wikimetrics report? Viewership is one way of measuring impact, and I think it would be interesting to measure the impact of a Wikimetrics cohort in this way. Thanks! Pine

Fwd: Announcement - Review of Global Metrics
by Jaime Anstee 09 Mar '16

09 Mar '16

For all who have been experiencing the Global Metrics for grants reporting - we would like to hear from you. The Community Resources team, in conjunction with the Program Capacity & Learning team, is embarking on a retrospective and update of Global Metrics, with the goals of understanding: - (1) how useful the current metrics are to grantees, Committee members, WMF staff ,and the broader movement. - (2) the major issues with the current metrics. - (3) how those issues could be addressed. You can find more information here about the project and how you can provide public or private feedback here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Global_metrics/Review (See complete announcement message below) Please be sure to share your experience by March 25th to help us in this review and planning for next possible steps. Best regards, Jaime -- Jaime Anstee, Ph.D Senior Strategist & Affiliations Committee Liaison Wikimedia Foundation +1.415.839.6885 ext 6869 www.wikimediafoundation.org Imagine a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. Help us make it a reality! *https://donate.wikimedia.org <https://donate.wikimedia.org/>* ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Sati Houston <shouston(a)wikimedia.org> Date: Tue, Mar 8, 2016 at 11:53 AM Subject: Announcement - Review of Global Metrics To: affiliates(a)lists.wikimedia.org Cc: Jaime Anstee <janstee(a)wikimedia.org> Hello All, My name is Sati Houston and I work within the Community Resources team at the Wikimedia Foundation. I'm writing to let you know that the Community Resources team, in conjunction with the Program Capacity & Learning team[1], is embarking on a retrospective and update of Global Metrics, with the goals of: - (1) understanding how useful the current metrics are to grantees, Committee members, WMF staff and the broader movement. - (2) understanding the major issues with the current metrics. - (3) understanding how those issues could be addressed. You can find more information here about the project and how you can provide public or private feedback here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Global_metrics/Review It's important to highlight that we are *not* running this as a Request for Comment (RfC) or consultation, where we have already identified a problem, set of solutions and are asking for community commentary. Instead, this retrospective focuses on gather systematic feedback across all who have used / been involved with Global Metrics. Based on that feedback, we will summarize the issues that we've heard - from grantees, Committee members, and even WMF staff - and then openly design solutions to address those problems. Again, you can find more information about the different phases of the project - collecting feedback, designing solutions, choosing what to implement - here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Global_metrics/Review *If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Sati Houston (shouston(a)wikimedia.org <shouston(a)wikimedia.org>) or Jaime Anstee (janstee(a)wikimedia.org <janstee(a)wikimedia.org>)*, as we are the main points of contact for this review of Global Metrics. Thank you in advance for your feedback. I look forward to hearing your thoughts and suggestions! Best, Sati [1] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Program_Capacity_and_Learning

Re: [Wikimetrics] Analytics Wikimetrics

Hi Romaine, I added your request to our task tracking system: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T124492 This sort of thing will require a programmer to make a simple change in the code, but before that happens, it needs to be prioritized over other work. Can you give us a better sense of how you use tagging? Do you tag all your cohorts? How many cohorts do you have? How does tagging make your work easier? BTW I have cc'ed the wikimetrics mailing list as others on this list may be interested.

Global Metrics
by Dan Andreescu 11 Feb '16

11 Feb '16

Hi everyone, sorry for the delayed message. We finished and deployed a new feature last week: https://metrics.wmflabs.org/reports/program-global-metrics >From that form, a program leader can run a standard report for their program's cohort with the least amount of data entry necessary. No cohorts need to be created, validated, or anything. This is streamlined for just this specific use case. The praise goes to Amanda for trying on a ton of new hats and managing this project and Madhu for doing the vast majority of the work. I take any blame as the translator in the middle who sometimes got things wrong. Let me know if anything isn't working as expected. Thanks! Dan

Want to test an easier way of collecting Global Metrics?
by Amanda Bittaker 07 Jan '16

07 Jan '16

Hello all, The Analytics team and I have been working on a tool to make calculating global metrics easier,--would you be interested in testing it, so it's as useful as possible to you and all program leaders? It works in Wikimetrics, but instead of running several different reports, you just enter the usernames, dates, and timezone and it gives you the Global Metrics. To finalize its development, we need to know: 1) Is the tool easy to use? 2) What would make it easier to use? 3) How does it compare to your current method of collecting Global Metrics, whether it's Wikimetrics or a different method? If you are interested in testing it, it's still in the development environment here https://metrics-staging.wmflabs.org/reports/program-metrics /create/ . Note that usernames need to be separated by carriage returns like this: Username 1 Username 2 . . . and that the "edits" metric is actually pages improved, the name just hasn't been updated yet. You may receive a server error or the page might not load, because Labs is having connectivity problems, but this isn't a problem with the new tool and the Labs team is working hard to fix it. I hope you get to test it out, and I hope you find it useful! Many thanks, Amanda Program Design & Evaluation WMF

problems with old results
by Dan Andreescu 09 Dec '15

09 Dec '15

Dear Wikimetrics list, Due to some updates that wikimetrics wasn't able to handle, we lost a link to the old report results. Please let us know how this affects you so we can figure out what the best way to fix it is. If it's not a big deal and you can just re-run reports, then we won't spend too much time recovering and we'll focus on making sure this doesn't happen next time.
