Using Wikimetrics to generate cohorts
by Dario Taraborelli 07 Oct '14

07 Oct '14

Abbey asked a question during today’s research group that I wanted to relay to the wikimetrics devs. Would it be possible to allow people to use Wikimetrics’ project-level reports to generate cohorts, in other words, obtain lists of user_ids or user_names matching specific criteria, for example: • registered users on a given date or period • newly active editors on a given date • unique editors on a given date or period UX research as well as LCA would die to have such a functionality (the fallback is to do this via Quarry or post a request to Research & Data or someone in Grantmaking).

Update to Wikimetrics
by Kevin Leduc 03 Oct '14

03 Oct '14

Hello, https://metrics.wmflabs.org/ was updated a few hours ago with changes that were proposed 2 weeks ago: The metrics "Edits" and "Pages Created" have a new option to include counts on deleted or archived pages. This option is on by default. Cautions: - In some cases the results of Edits & Pages Created counts will be a lot higher than what you are used to when you factor in deleted pages. - Recurring reports that started beforehand and are still running daily will now count deleted / archived pages. These will show a jump on 10/3. Bonus: on both these metrics, you now have the ability to count across all namespaces. Just delete all text in the namespaces field and it will default to counting everything. cheers, Kevin Leduc

Question from [Wikimedia Education] Metrics tool
by Anna Koval 02 Oct '14

02 Oct '14

Hey Wikimetrics folks, Could you please help me out with a reply to Kosta here? Thanks so much! Anna ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: *Konstantinos Stampoulis* <geraki(a)geraki.gr> Date: Wednesday, October 1, 2014 Subject: [Wikimedia Education] Metrics tool To: Wikimedia Education <education(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Hello, I have some questions about the metrics tool: 1. Can I share my cohorts with other users, so that they can produce their own reports? 2. I'm sure there was an option for individual results on users. I do have some old analysed data but I cannot find it now that I want to create new reports. Is it removed? Without it I can see that a number of students are still active editors but I cannot find who they are.

Changes to "Edits" and "Pages Created" metrics
by Kevin Leduc 30 Sep '14

30 Sep '14

Dear Wikimetrics users, We want to make a change to two metrics in Wikimetrics next week but first we want to hear if you have any comments on what we're about to do. "Edits" & "Pages Created" Currently these metrics do not take into account pages that were deleted (archived). For example, if yesterday I created a page, made an edit and deleted that same page, the reports would not count my created page or edit. We plan to update these metrics to include work done on deleted pages. The result could be slightly higher numbers in reports off these metrics. We also plan to make this behavior configurable when creating a report - you can uncheck the default to include deleted pages. Please comment before Tuesday September 23rd 2014. If there are no strong objections, we will update the metrics the following Thursday. Regards, Kevin Leduc Analytics Product Manager

Connectivity issues on 2014-08-02 between 00:00 and 09:00
by Christian Aistleitner 02 Aug '14

02 Aug '14

Hi, on 2014-08-02 somewhere shortly around 0:00, some wikimetrics instances ran out of available database connections to labsdb, and hence failed to properly validate cohorts, and run reports. Since 9:00, wikimetrics again has enough database connections, and cohort validation and running reports should work again as expected. We're tracking the issue at https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69043 For metrics.wmflabs.org, I checked for affected cohorts and reports, but could not find any. But in case you ran into issues during on metrics.wmflabs.org between 2014-08-02 00:00 and 09:00 it might be related to this issue.

Re: [Wikimetrics] possible wikimetrcis bug?

Nevermind, everyone. There must have been a longer delay than I was willing to wait for. Because now all are valid. But this happened last night and this morning, too, so thought you'd want a head's up. Take care. Anna Koval, M.Ed.

Updates to Wikimetrics
by Kevin Leduc 26 Jul '14

26 Jul '14

Dear Wikimetrics Community, The Wikimetrics website was updated yesterday (Thursday July 24, 2014) with 2 notable updates: New Metric: Rolling Active Editor You can select this new metric when creating a new report. For a given day, it returns the number of active editors in your cohort based on the last 30 day window from your target date. We recommend you always use the default/canonical settings of a 30 day window and 5 edits so you can compare apples to apples. The scientific definition is here https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Rolling_monthly_active_editor . Changes to the JSON Output of Public Scheduled Reports This will only affect those running Public Scheduled reports (a handful of users). Data in the JSON output file has been grouped into a more concise format. Before After date 1: Sum: submetric: result date 2: ... Sum: submetric: date 1: result date 2: result As always, feel free to post questions on this list. Regards, Kevin Leduc
