Hi Neil,

Issa has copied the page over.

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Timeline_of_Wikimedia_analytics

Also, he (with some help from me) is working on an article with more
detailed findings from our investigation. We'll email the list when the
article is mostly done from our side, and it would be exciting to get your
feedback.

Thanks to everybody for chiming in on this thread! Please feel free to make
updates and improvements to the article in its new location.

Vipul
