Discussion:
[Wikimetrics] Add "pages edited" metric?

Hi there Wikimetrics fans,

I wanted to get some input on a proposal to add a "pages edited" metric to
Wikimetrics (see this story
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Analytics/Wikimetrics/Stories#User_reports_pages_edited_by_cohort>
).

This was proposed because "Articles Improved
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_patterns/Number_of_articles_created_or_improved_in_Wikimedia_projects>"
is one of the new Grantmaking Global Metrics
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_%26_Evaluation/Global_metrics>,
and there's currently no way to get the # of pages that were edited by the
members of a cohort through Wikimetrics.

As we've scoped it, this metric would be listed along with the other
available metrics on https://metrics.wmflabs.org/metrics/. Any Wikimetrics
user would be able to run this metric for reports the same way they would
run any other--they can filter by pages edited in a particular namespace,
date range, retrieve individual and aggregate results, etc. It would also
be possible to get the # of pages edited across different projects for
CentralAuth cohorts.

What do y'all think: does this sound reasonable and useful?

Best,
Jonathan

makes sense to me, I think it would be nice to have project-level <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Metrics_standardization/Implementation> pages edited too.

I'd like to second that. It would be very useful. The pages created
function is already a function WMUK uses in its reporting, and pages
editing would be added straight in.

This would be super useful for education courses/programs as well. I would
love to see something like this in Wikimetrics!

Currently the best way for us to do this with Wikipedia courses is to use
the education extension [1] and Sage's course stats tool on labs [2]. (This
assumes the education extension is enabled on the project and people are
using it to track cohorts of users/students.)

Thanks,
Tighe

It was de-prioritized because there was no clear consensus on how the
metric is actually dealing with edits by the same user on the same page.
The code is basically almost done, but parked here in an abandoned Gerrit
change: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/174773/

Since the analytics team probably won't be able to prioritize this soon,
we'd need:

1. someone to make a final decision on the metric, understanding the
technical implications (we can consult here)
2. someone from the community to finish up the code. We can merge it and
deploy it

In the meantime, here's a template MySQL query (with instructions!) that
you can use to get the set of pages edited by a cohort:
