Hey Pine, We don't deploy software that affects the user experience on Wikimedia projects, so it is hard to identify any direct effect on editor engagement that we've had. The Product teams[1] develop user-facing features. It doesn't look like they have a public facing mailing list, but the community engagement team (for product)[2] does. You can contact them at c...@lists.wikimedia.org.
In analytics, we develop new measures of editor engagement (among other things)[3] and deploy those measures for public use. For example, see WikiMetrics[4]. We also support the product teams by helping them identify which features are likely to have a positive impact with background analysis (e.g. [5]) and by running experiments to help product teams iterate toward feature designs that maximize positive impact (e.g. [6]). Right now, we provide direct support of the Growth[7] and Mobile[8] product teams, but we also consult with other teams at the WMF and engage with "community outreach efforts" (e.g. [9]) in our (not so copious) free time. 1. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Product 2. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Community_Engagement_(Product) 3. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Analytics/Epics/Editor_Engagement_Vital_Signs 4. https://metrics.wmflabs.org/ 5. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_article_creation 6. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Asking_anonymous_editors_to_register 7. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Growth 8. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mobile_web_projects 9. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Labs2/Hackathons/August_6-7th,_2014 -Aaron On Thu, Aug 14, 2014 at 2:11 AM, Pine W <wiki.p...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Analytics team, > > I'm curious, which tools developed by Analytics have contributed notably > to editor engagement successes? > > Pine > > _______________________________________________ > Analytics mailing list > Analytics@lists.wikimedia.org > https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/analytics > >
