Hi, actually that Research:Data page seems stale. It says: "Wikimedia broadcasts every change to every Wikimedia wiki using the Socket.IO protocol," whereas the current preferred way is to use SSE. You should take a look at: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/EventStreams
I recently created a web app to visualize live Wikidata edits to artworks by watching EventStreams, so feel free to ping me if you have any questions or want to build off that. -Andrew On Sun, Feb 10, 2019 at 12:27 AM K.
