Dear all,
I wanted to share this project that I have just proposed for a project grant:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Community_Health_Metrics:_Und...
I am proposing this work as part of a team of 3 researchers from Eurecat, a research center in Barcelona.
Our aim is to study editor's lifecycle to identify factors associated with editors leaving the project and make what we discover available through dashboards that can be used by the communities to plan further actions.
We plan to study interaction metrics over time, and quantify different aspects of editor experience along editors' lifecycle. We will devote special attention to underrepresented groups of users, according to aspects such as gender, country, and native language.
We aim to build on the state of the art, and to involve the community as much as possible when choosing on which metrics we should focus on.
We welcome any feedback on the proposal.
Best,
Cristian
