Hi Vipul,
Thanks for doing this. I made a few changes to the timeline. Wouldn't meta be an appropriate place for this? Notability is not an issue there. And it formalizes co-authoring. Cheers, Erik From: Analytics [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Vipul Naik Sent: Friday, September 30, 2016 3:50 To: A mailing list for the Analytics Team at WMF and everybody who has an interest in Wikipedia and analytics. Subject: [Analytics] Seeking feedback (+ answer to 1 question) on a timeline of Wikipedia analytics Dear Analytics mailing list, I am working, along with Issa Rice (cc'ed) on an analysis of changes to Wikipedia pageviews since December 2007, when pageview statistics first started being maintained. To help with our analysis, we collected key events related to changes to user experience on the site as well as to statistics availabilty and measurement. We've recorded our findings on this page in Issa's userspace: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Riceissa/Timeline_of_Wikipedia_analytics I'd appreciate it if you can highlight: (a) Factual errors in the material currently in the timeline (b) Missing events that you think should belong in the timeline, with regards to the availability of statistics as well as any other events that affected user experience significantly. In addition, I had the following question: In the Wikimedia per-article pageviews API https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/#!/Pageviews_data/get_metrics_pageviews_per_article_project_access_agent_article_granularity_start_end, where do Wikipedia Zero pageviews get recorded? Do they go under mobile-web, or mobile-app, or neither? https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Analytics/Data/Pageviews <https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Analytics/Data/Pageview> gives some information on how the underlying pageviews are recorded in the pageviews dataset, but I wasn't clear on how the pageview REST API processes that data. Thank you! Vipul NOTE: We don't intend to move the page to Wikipedia's main space, as we know it won't meet the notability criterion. The user space was just a convenient place to store it while taking advantage of MediaWiki's syntax and Wikipedia's templates.
