Hi Adam, Thank for sharing your experience. I'm very curious to see what ideas come up to study this.

Over the weekend, I tried a few voice queries with Cortana and noticed sometimes it sources things from Wikipedia in the Windows OS native component. And when I said "Wikipedia goldfish" it opened a browser to Bing with the search query. Ward, I agree that an academic group or perhaps the Foundation might be in a position to ask or ascertain some sort of information. That said, I believe the information is pretty carefully guarded. I've in general wished to have a sense of aggregate changes (e.g., fluctuation of percentage of impressions involving Wikimedia content and the raw delta of Wikimedia-involved impressions) - for understanding impact, like you mention - even if the data had to be time delayed. Claudia, I was curious, would you explain a bit more on editors wanting to know? Is it about broad reach numbers as Ward mentioned, or something else? -Adam On Tue, Aug 15, 2017 at 2:12 AM, <[email protected]> wrote: > Ward, I think that quite a few editors would like to know, > indeed, > > best, > Claudia > > ---------- Original Message ----------- > From:Ward Cunningham <[email protected]> > To:Research into Wikimedia content and communities > <[email protected]> > Cc:[email protected] > Sent:Sun, 13 Aug 2017 10:19:58 -0700 > Subject:Re: [Wiki-research-l] What percentage of digital > assistants cite Wikipedia? > > > > On Aug 11, 2017, at 4:02 PM, Stella Yu > <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > > Which of the digital assistants (Alexa, Siri, Google > Assistant, > > > Cortana) source/cite Wikipedia? > > > > I would assume that each of these device operators > > would have detailed analytics regarding the degree > > that they reuse Wikimedia content.
