Dear Wikimetrics Users:


Wikimetrics was updated last night (2014-01-08) with many new features that were implemented at the end of 2014.  Here is a list of what is live (as of yesterday) on https://metrics.wmflabs.org/ :


View Members in a Cohort

From the cohorts page ( https://metrics.wmflabs.org/cohorts ) there is a new blue button “View Members” which takes you to a new web page with a list of the first 20 usernames in the cohort.  You can also browse the list using the search field or the drop down to filter out invalid or valid usernames.


Remove Member from Cohort

From the web page described above, you can remove a username from a cohort.  On rare occasions a user may request his username be removed from a cohort; this feature makes the process trivial.


You may also want to remove usernames that failed validation.  Usernames are deemed invalid when there is no such account on the wiki (specified when creating a cohort).  This may happen when the username is incorrect or when that user has never visited the wiki in question.  In the latter case, you will be presented with a separate button to remove only the invalid (usernames,wiki) combinations.


Privacy Policy

Wikimetrics runs on Wikimedia Labs infrastructure ( https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Labs ) and is governed by its terms of use ( https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikitech:Labs_Terms_of_use ).  As such we have added a new page stating so ( https://metrics.wmflabs.org/policy ) with a link to it on the header of the website.


Updated Support Page

Should you find any bugs, feel free to log it on our bug tracking platform.  For convenience a link is posted on the support page ( https://metrics.wmflabs.org/support ).  This link has been updated to reflect WMF’s migration away from Bugzilla onto Phabricator.
