Drawbacks: People who maintain and use those metric pages don't want you to move them for a myriad of reasons.
- Many of us are confident that Meta is the Right(TM) place for them - Meta has become the place where we document studies. Our core metrics should be accompanied by a study of their meaning and the robustness of their parameters. - Meta is where the research community of Wikimedia stuff generally hangs out. - It would cause disruption in our work to remove the metrics pages. We'd need to write a bit to fix the broken links. What are the benefits of temporarily moving all of this content to Wikitech? You might end up moving it back after all. Is it easier to edit the documentation on Wikitech than it is on Meta in some way? -Aaron On Wed, Oct 14, 2015 at 10:57 AM, Jonathan Morgan <[email protected]> wrote: > Strongly oppose moving the Research namespace hosted metrics documentation > off Meta.
