Hi Richard,

Thanks for that, it helped us debug.  It turns out there's a problem connecting to the labs databases and it's causing Wikimetrics to error out while validating most users.  We're looking into it and will update the list once it's fixed.

Here's the cohort of 44 user names. I had a go cleaning it up but couldn't find any special or invisible characters. There's a least one user name with punctuation at the end, but it is meant to be there.

If that doesn't work, please post the file with the names you tried to use.

Probably special characters on your names, commas, invisible characters?

Try to clean up the usernames in a tool that shows you all characters present.


Thanks,

Hello,

I just created a cohort of 44 user names. Wikimetrics has been able to expand the user names to all projects (532 altogether) but for some reason only 12 are valid. Any idea what the problem might be?
