Subject: [Analytics] Dropping MoodBar extension tables from all wikis

Hello!
This is an FYI that ModBar extension has been undeployed and, as such, its
tables will be removed from all wikis. See https://phabricator.wikimedia.
org/T153033
It looks like this extension sprang some interest in the past [1] and there
were some research projects about it. Please let us know (before August
7th) whether we should keep the tables for any reason.
Thanks,
Nuria

Hi everyone,
We’re preparing for the April 2017 research newsletter and looking for contributors. Please take a look at:

• Automatic Classification of Wikipedia Articles by Using Convolutional Neural Network
• Cumulative Experience and Recent Behavior and their Relation to Content Quality on Wikipedia

• Information needed: comprendere e anticipare i bisogni informativi al tempo di Wikipedia

Hi all,
I recently attended AI for Good Summit in Geneva, Switzerland and have
written an informal trip report that will give you pointers to the
program, recorded sessions, photos taken, and interviews that happened
during the summit. I also shared a few other observations about the
summit. You can find the report at

Best,
