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.
