Analytics/Wikistats/DumpReports/Future per report

From mediawiki.org

Work in progress

April 2017: time to weigh in on the Prototype Feedback page!

February 2017: Thank you for weighing in on the Design Feedback page!

December 2016: updating the title of each section with the current vote count, to easily see it from the table of contents.

March 2016: this page provides an overview of existing Wikistats reports which focus on Wikimedia content and content contributors (better known to insiders as Wikistats' dump based reports), and seeks your input on which reports are most valuable to you. With your help the WMF Analytics Team can determine which reports should be migrated/replaced first, which later, or not at all.

Please add your signature to those reports you want to remain in some form in a new setup.
(three tildes ~~~, if signed on).

  • For a wider perpective see also this overview of Wikistats ecology
  • For a breakdown of traffic to Wikistats itself see these counts and notes.
  • For a similar survey about Wikistats' reports on content consumption (better known as Wikistats' traffic reports) see this survey, published in July 2015 (migration in progress).

Notes

[edit]
  • Every section header links to the respective report (for English Wikipedia)
  • Some reports come in two varieties
    • All months
    • All months for last 2 years, followed by sampled months (Jan/Apr/Jul/Oct) for entire lifetime of project or wiki

Site map per project (43)

[edit]

For each Wikimedia project (Wikibooks,Wiktionary,Wikinews,Wikipedia,Wikiquote,Wikisource,Wikiversity,Wikivoyage,Other Projects) there is site-map page listing all languages. For each language it presents some links to other stats content, plus a set of basic metrics. This core set of metrics can be sorted by almost any column.

  35. This is the single most valuable report. Not sure what the "year over year" is for, it would make more sense to compare similar months, rather than comparing summer vacation months with back-to-school months, for example, July 2015 with July 2014, rather than October 2015. (As an aside, why is it so difficult to open an edit window on this page? It took me six tries just for this one small section, with multiple "script busy" messages, sometimes crashing at the part where you have to select source or visual editor. I finally got it to open by telling it to allow the busy script to complete.) —Neotarf (talk) 17:11, 31 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Reports per wiki

[edit]

For more than 800 Wikimedia wikis there is a dedicated page with monthly counts on content and content creators. Arguably for many wikis some of these metrics are vital to assess the health of the editing community for that particular wiki. But the presentation is overcrowded, static, and somewhat disorganized. Broadly speaking these tables fall into two categories: 1) focus on content 2) focus on contributors, with the first table on the page (also the oldest) a hybrid between these two categories.

Reports per wiki, basic metrics (a hybrid)

[edit]

Main monthly trends, and quarterly rankings (40)

[edit]

Oldest Wikistats report, with several presentation layers, and as said a hybrid between content itself and content contributors

  • Year over year (YoY) for recent months
  • Absolute values for every month (or every first month of the quarter)
  • Rankings within this project (e.g. Wikipedia), with tiny wikis filtered

Note: some metrics in this first section are not up to date for large Wikipedias, as run time length of data collection became an obstacle.

Keep
  1. Erik Zachte (talk) Oldest Wikistats table. Some metrics are very often referred to, others just occasionally. The table is overly complex. I suggest redesign, strip down to essentials, or make it dynamic, where the user can specify which metrics to present, and in which way.
  2. Kipala (talk)
  3. Liridon (talk)
  4. Sander.v.Ginkel (talk) 21:08, 3 May 2016 (UTC) Most important basic stats, like average new pages per day. Redesign is suggested.[reply]
  5. Redesign, not drop. Almost all metrics in itself are useful, and users with >5 and >100 are especially valuable and not available elsewhere — NickK (talk)
  6. crucially important. While it includes things I don't think anyone should care about these days (database size?), it must not be killed before there is demonstrably a stable, citable, alternative source for this data. Ijon (talk) 00:30, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  9. Effeietsanders (talk) 07:46, 4 May 2016 (UTC) These data are very helpful to quickly get a grasp of a project, and give helpful information that can be used in PR and conversations with external partners. They care less about the whole, and much more about the individual projects and how those developed.[reply]
  10. Anthere (talk) 07:55, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  11. --Holder (talk) 08:16, 4 May 2016 (UTC) Very useful, especially for smaller projects. Please calculate also the other columns like 'words', 'articles larger than 2kB' etc.[reply]

  1. Neil P. Quinn-WMF (talk) 23:39, 31 March 2016 (UTC). I don't think this report itself is very useful. Some of the individual components are very useful (users with >5 and >100 edits, article count, and new articles per day) but they can be easily represented elsewhere.[reply]

Other
  1. If I had to choose, I'd prefer to keep the comparisons which display this information by metric, with more context. But are the reports really the main cost? I'd think most work would go into calculating these metrics (i.e. in the WikiCounts scripts). Nemo 06:37, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bar charts per wiki (29)

  7. Keep. As it is. Monthly Serenity (talk) 16:26, 7 May 2016 (UTC) Reason: I find this particular report is the most simplest, easiest to understand. For those of you who are comfortable looking at complicated stat, or try to get the "big picture", this particular chart may not seem to matter. But for us, this is the "small picture" that makes up the big one. This is the truth. Effort based on changes on person-to-person basis, this chart spill the truth the hard way, the correct way. If you edit, you basically "fill" the chart, you can't lie with this chart or you can, but not easy. Using this chart, a lot of Indonesian languages committee was trained (Indonesian, Javanese, Sundanese - Minang and Toraja coming) to see how their effort "donate" to contribution in the next two months. If the number of "keep" matters, I will asked everyone that use this chart to log in and sign as keep.[reply]

Comparisons per project (15)

[edit]

Again, these metrics correspond 1:1 to the columns in the first table above (the hybrid table): Main monthly trends, and quarterly rankings.

These tables in particular are unwieldy, slow to download and display (there is a javascript macro behind every cell, to optimize download size). The monthly granularity is too small. The number of columns too large (280+ for Wikipedia).

Yet the cell coloring can help to quickly spot anomalies. BTW different reports use different cell coloring scheme, without legend (bug, there was one long ago).

[edit]
  1. I sometimes use those: they are useful even though they are big. Showing only a selection of columns can be a solution (either split into several pages with something like 20 wikis per page or user-defined selections). Alternatively, we can keep online just a few first rows and make the entire table available as CSV or similar — NickK (talk) 22:36, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  2. The most useful pages of WikiStats. In the last decade, I've always used these tables to quickly grasp what's going on in each project on all language, in a way which is impossible with aggregated data: the discoveries have often helped me find some nice activity/experiment on some wiki, or some situation in need for help from the crosswiki community, and nice discussions or best practices have ensued. The tabular format is also surprisingly effective, thanks to the colours which allow quick skimming. Admittedly, most people only care about their own courtyard and couldn't care less of comparing their own hyper-perfect project to the others; by the way, see m:Category:Cross-project comparisons.

[edit]

  1. I would like the successor of Wikistats to focus on making available data that is hard/impossible for volunteer developers to produce. Visualizations can always be created on top of available data, so are far less important, in my opinion, to prioritize for a WMF effort. Since I understand this exercise (this opinion-poll) to be input for WMF prioritization, I'd hate to lose an actual data source because folks found this visualization of existing data fun (I think it's fun too).

Other
  1. It's equally important to calculate the data and to make it readable, which is why WikiStats didn't just publish CSV files but also tables, charts, plots etc. I don't know how useful this is, although I made some nice discoveries with it a couple times and perhaps I showed it at some event. Nemo 06:21, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  2. We promise not to get distracted making pretty charts. My personal thought is that we make as much data as possible available in as friendly as possible a way, and then make it easy for people to contribute these kinds of animations to Wikistats itself. But as with the pageview API sample client, it's good to give people ideas about what's possible. Milimetric (WMF) (talk) 23:06, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Miscellaneous reports

  1. A good set of statistics that can be usable, but this table really needs to be sortable. Keep if can be converted into something sortable or more dynamic, drop otherwise — NickK (talk) 23:27, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Erik Zachte (talk) Too unwieldy in its current form. A more dynamic reporting tool (querying a Wikistats database) would bring focus. Also, I copied a few more columns to Sitemap page which is sortable. Preview new version here.
  2. Clumsy in it's current form - Melilac (talk) 18:59, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Other
  1. Cannot live without this if the comparison tables are killed, but I've always used the comparison tables more for this sort of thing. A few times these saved my day though. Nemo 06:22, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  4. if this or the new version: I do not find the present arrangement of regions so helpful. doing stats for Africa I would appreciate a way to see the regional language without the international ones like en, fr etc. Maybe similar interest for Asia?

[edit]

Keep
  1. Visualisation of such trends is useful. It would be better to keep several key metrics (new articles per month, new editors etc.) and have a comparison (and/or ranking) for main wikis. The current format is unfortunately far from easy to understand — NickK (talk) 23:32, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Static reports. Very outdated (2009). Very unwieldy. Better tools available now.

  1. Erik's perl scripts are still the best we have for analysis of a category tree... we regularly get requests for pageviews, for instance. This has been for a long time the only way to find circular categories in a project, it's been unusable for a long while though. The successor should probably use the same code to get the data and then apply some nicer browsing. Nemo 06:27, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wikis ranked by creation date, colored by growth rate (6)

[edit]


Table lists Wikipedias by creation month, and colors by growth rate in contributors, then again in second table by growth rate in articles.

Keep
  1. Erik Zachte (talk) Keep in some form, although the visualization could be much more awesome.
  2. For me it is more comfortable to look at than animation... - Melilac (talk) 19:04, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Useful. 2679D (talk) 09:56, 6 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  4. I also like this more than the animation version. --Baba Tabita (talk) 17:19, 6 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  5. David1010 (talk) 16:17, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  6. Historically useful. --Nouill (talk) 03:47, 25 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Drop
  1. I did not get the point. #Animation on growth per Wikimedia wiki seems to be very close to this but interactive. Perhaps merge if some features are still not available in this animation — NickK (talk)
  2. not useful enough. Ijon (talk) 00:23, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Statistics seem to be faked by imports of articles revisions (e. g. Arabic Wikipedia surely didn't start in January 2001). --Holder (talk) 07:23, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Other
  1. I don't use this, personally; it's mainly a research tool though. This sort of information is useful to have in some compact form and it used to exist nowhere else when this report was created, but since then much of these details for many wikis (at least the biggest ones) has been copied elsewhere.

[edit]

  1. Would love to see this tool workable in the future, with more accuracy if possible. The stats are interesting and can be used for some overview of large trends. I've used this tool a lot to highlight historic trends in articles about various wikipedias.--Paracel63 (talk) 17:11, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

50 recently active wikipedians (1)

[edit]

It would be better to Rank according to all edits than article edits. Some Wikipedias are interested to edit/contribute technical, policy, help issues rather than editing/contributing articles. Edit/contribute on Template, Wikipedia, Module, etc give importance role in Wikipedia function. I disagree to limit the ranking based on article edits. Therefore, the rank should not only focus "article edits". If you agree, apply to all language Wikipedias. --AntanO (talk) 05:21, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative article count

[edit]

I do not see it. Will it be retained? Kipala (talk) 20:23, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

ok, it SHOULD be contained. I do analysis on African languages wikipedias. For understanding developments in small wikipedias you have to look at what kind of content is there. Helps me to see why some larger ones have few views and smaller ones have (quality of content).
