So then why move documentation that is used by a larger audience to
wikitech. Your explanation shows precisely why consolidating the info to meta
would make more sense. It would also get more eyeballs on the documentation. It
would also allow the WMF to better leverage that free volunteer workforce that
likes to loiter on meta. Just my opinion though.

in Wikipedia and analytics.;Subject:Re: [Analytics] Canonical location for
metrics documentation
We are talking about two different types of documentation:
* Infrastructure DocsJust like the rest of WMF infrastructure the lawful place
for this is wikitech. It is documentation technical in nature of interest to
engineers working at the WMF mostly. It makes sense most people do not know
about it, you wouldn't unless you have worked for WMF or committed code in a
volunteer capacity.
*Metrics definitionsOur metrics are not different from research's metrics, we
execute on metrics researchers have defined. If research wants to keeps those
in meta I think it should not be a problem.

As far as the analytics engineering / infrastructure stuff is concerned, I'd
like to finish consolidating on wikitech first. When that's all clean and
beautiful we can move everything all at once to meta. I'm not against that at
all if people ask for it.
