Reguyla, A couple people may have suggested that, but it seems like there's a rough consensus that documentation for analytics engineers should stay on Wikitech and documentation for analysts and researchers should stay on Meta.
That should also settle the original question I was asking in this thread: whether I can move the information at mediawiki:Analytics/Metrics <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Analytics/Metric_definitions> to Meta. It sounds like the answer is yes. <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Analytics/Metric_definitions> On Wed, Oct 14, 2015 at 4:19 PM, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: > So then why move documentation that is used by a larger audience to > wikitech.
