I'd be interested to see how the priorities change. I'm interested specifically in what pain points newcomers to our code might experience.
We discussed running the wishlist in a more survey-like way (use Google Forms, ask a bunch of demographics/experience questions) but that would have been more complex to set up and we did not have the bandwidth.
I have an old vote analysis project [1] that I could dust off but I'm not sure how well (lack of) wiki activity correlates with being a newcomer, and we don't really have any other indicators. (In theory Phabricator could be used to link wiki and gerrit identity, but that data is probably not public.)
There is an API that can be used to lookup a Phabricator account based on a Wikimedia username (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/conduit/method/user.mediawikiquery/). We built this for use by https://toolsadmin.wikimedia.org/ (Striker).
