Hi there Wikimetrics fans,
I wanted to get some input on a proposal to add a "pages edited" metric to Wikimetrics (see this story https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Analytics/Wikimetrics/Stories#User_reports_pages_edited_by_cohort ).
This was proposed because "Articles Improved https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_patterns/Number_of_articles_created_or_improved_in_Wikimedia_projects" is one of the new Grantmaking Global Metrics https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_%26_Evaluation/Global_metrics, and there's currently no way to get the # of pages that were edited by the members of a cohort through Wikimetrics.
As we've scoped it, this metric would be listed along with the other available metrics on https://metrics.wmflabs.org/metrics/. Any Wikimetrics user would be able to run this metric for reports the same way they would run any other--they can filter by pages edited in a particular namespace, date range, retrieve individual and aggregate results, etc. It would also be possible to get the # of pages edited across different projects for CentralAuth cohorts.
What do y'all think: does this sound reasonable and useful?
Best, Jonathan
