[Wikimetrics] "Rolling Active" Documentation

[Dorothy Howard]

Hi Wikimetrics,

When going through these pages:

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_patterns/Calculating_global_metrics

I spent some time looking for information on how to compute these three
things:

- Rolling Active Editor
- Rolling New Active Editor
- Rolling Surviving New Active Editor

I recommend that you add those learning patterns to the ones you currently
have and then link directly to those in Wikimetrics itself because there is
very little information available for what these metrics mean, who created
the term, or how to make them.

1. Number of newly registered users
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_patterns/Number_of_newly_registered_users>
2. Number of active editors involved
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_patterns/Number_of_active_editors_involved>
3. Number of individuals involved
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_patterns/Number_of_individuals_involved>
4. Number of articles created or improved in Wikimedia projects
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_patterns/Number_of_articles_created_or_improved_in_Wikimedia_projects>
5. Number of images or media used in Wikimedia projects
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_patterns/Number_of_images_or_media_used_in_Wikimedia_projects>
6. Number of bytes added and removed from Wikimedia projects
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_patterns/Bytes_added_to_or_removed_from_Wikimedia_projects>
7. Learning question: Did your work increase the motivation of
contributors, and how do you know?
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_patterns/Learning_question>


Just a thought–

Thanks!

Thanks Dorothy,

We do have a task in our backlog to add more information for each metric.
The resources are out there on wikis, we just haven't prioritized the
work. Thanks for the bump.
