Where are you seeing that? I've been monitoring COIBot report contribution numbers and it seems about constant over the years to me. > and the large increase in our proportion of vandals since 2005.... The proportion of vandalism peaked in 2007 per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Vandalism_statistics Has it been on the rise again? ClueBot NG's contribution's over time seemed to be relatively low before its recent outage and training reset compared to 2010. Counting ClueBot NG contributions per hour makes it seem like they are still lower than 2007 levels, but they start and stop in bursts so I can't get a good idea of the trend without more work. I want to clarify to John Vandenberg and others that I do approve of the Foundation's very important work on editor retention and recruitment, and on the current initiatives such the Article Feedback Tool which are in many ways quality-focused, but I think additional Foundation efforts on content quality are simply not necessary at least until the recruitment and retention numbers stop declining. -Will _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
