Dear Jennifer and the Product Analytics Team, It is really nice that you prepared and updated this dataset! Thank you very much.
My first feedback: 1) I don't understand "overall size rank". Based on the definitions, it is the "count of unique devices which visited the wiki during that month". What does this do with the size of the wiki? 2) I miss the *size of the database* (main namespace/content pages), which together with the number of content pages would give an impression of the mean size of the articles (I know this is not perfect, but better than nothing). 3) Many more wishes about additional metrics :D Best regards, Samat On Wed, 24 Feb 2021 at 10:55, Goran Milovanovic < [email protected]> wrote: > Hi Kate, > > and thank you very much for your feedback. > > I think I've forgotten to mention how the Wiki comparison 2020 dataset is > so great that I will start using it in my R programming language classes as > of today to help people learn more about hypothesis testing and join > operations across the dataframes : ) > > Thank you for all the hard work! > > > We'll keep an eye toward consistency, but we have not made the data > extraction into a fully automated process. > I have seen the code, I know the pain too well...
