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_p…>
).
This was proposed because "Articles Improved
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_patterns/Number_of_articles…>"
is one of the new Grantmaking Global Metrics
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_%26_Evaluation/Global_metri…>,
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

Hello,
Yes, I apologize you are facing difficulty with running reports. There have been some recent changes to the labs server that have been causing instability for the Wikimetrics tool. Although our analytics team has been working on it, I am forwarding this note to the wikimetrics list to let the team know your having issue as well and to loop you in for updates.
If you are not already subscribed, I suggest subscribing to the list so you will get messages in the future about issues that sometimes come up and can report directly to the support team able to help.
You can subscribe at:
wikimetrics(a)lists.wikimedia.org
Thank you for your patience.
Best regards,
Jaime

The dump generation process was restarted Feb 12, after a long outage.
It takes several weeks for all dumps to refresh.
You can follow the progress at http://dumps.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html
All dumps now contain full data for December.
Wikistats did process all of these dumps, the last one completed yesterday (wikidata).
So I could generate reports for January now, but I'm quite busy, so I ask for a few more days.
There is still 2 to 4 days to go to bring all dumps fully up to date, with data for January.
So we can jump ahead two months in one go.
You can follow the progress at http://stats.wikimedia.org/WikiCountsJobProgress.html
It looks like January data and reports will be in before next Thursday's Metrics Meeting.
Cheers
Erik

Hi Erik Z,
A member from the Czech community requested an update on when stats for 2015 per wiki [0] will be available. The email was sent to the wikimetrics list [1] so I am relaying it here.

Hello all,
I am getting failures again, both when uploading cohorts and running
reports. Strangely, it seems the more reports you try to run in one batch
the less likely it is any report will succeed.
Is anyone else having these problems again? Wonderful Analytics people,
could you please work your magic again?
Many thanks,
Amanda
Hello,
We apologize in advance but wikimetrics will not be functioning next
Tuesday, labs is due for some platform maintenance and all tools deployed
to labs are likely going to be down.
We also will like to let you know that problems with google signin on
wikimetrics have been fixed. Please let us know should you find any
problems on that regard.
Thanks,
Nuria
Hi Wikimetrics Team,
I have not been able to login to / use Wikimetrics for 1.5 weeks now. I've
tried every few days, but when I try to sign-in using my Google account,
the next page once I pick my gmail email is an "Internal Server Error"
page.
You might want to look into this.
Thanks,
Dorothy
