Hullo Pine,

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.

While this isn't something Wikimetrics can do, there are other tools to look at pageviews of pages improved by a cohort. GLAMorous 2 [1] calculates the number of pages improved by media uploaded and the pageviews of those pages by category, pagepile, or user.

What do you mean by "thumbnail views" and how does that differ from pageviews?

I also feel compelled to add that just as viewership is a facet of impact, pageviews on wiki projects is a facet of viewership. Who knows how much content and how many curricula have been enriched with our freely licensed pictures of cuttlefish or the dome of Santa Maria del Fiore? (Seriously, if anyone is looking at answering questions like these, I would love to hear about it!)

Hope that helps--

Cheers,

Amanda
