@GoranSMilovanovic thanks! I'm pretty open on next steps. This work was done in part to help guide interpretation of potential WMF metrics around measuring transclusion but I would love to see some improvements made to the way we monitor transclusion if possible too. You'll have to let me know what you see as feasible / reasonable changes though and what I can do to help make them happen. In T246709#6367012 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T246709#6367012> I noted that there are two potential improvements I could see made based on my very limited knowledge of how lua / these tables work: - Distinguishing between standard statements and identifiers in Lua calls. If this then was reflected in wbc_entity_usage, it would be much easier to distinguish between transclusion that is part of linked open data and transclusion that is facts like birthday etc. It would also substantially reduce noise in Recent Changes because, at least in English Wikipedia, the very common metadata templates like Authority Control <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Authority_control> and Taxonbar <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Taxonbar> trigger a general C aspect and so changes to any part of the Wikidata item show up in Recent Changes even when they have no impact on the article. In theory, a filter could be added to Recent Changes then to change how changes to identifiers show up in the feed. - I'm not sure if it's possible to distinguish between transclusion and tracking in the wbc_entity_usage table -- e.g., a parameter that can be passed with lua calls that indicates that the property is only being used for tracking. This might just be a hacky change that long-term isn't useful, but tracking categories generate a lot of the entries in the wbc_entity_usage table and are quite different in impact than transclusion.
