Good news indeed! Does this include metrics for articles within a category 
(thinking here specifically of the categories related to GLAM content partners) 
or do we stick  with BaGLAMa 2 for that?

Hi everybody,

 

Just in time for the holidays, we're announcing the addition of Media Requests 
to our metrics catalog. Over the last few months we've been working on a 
dataset offering request numbers for every single image, audio, video and 
document in the Wiki universe, since 2015.

 

This means we have 3 new metrics available in the Analytics Query Service:


*       Media requests per referrer: e.g. how many images, audio, videos... 
have been accessed from English Wikipedia in the last month? 73 billion for 
November 
<http://stats.wikimedia.org/v2/#/en.wikipedia.org/content/total-mediarequests/normal%7Cbar%7C2-year%7C~total%7Cmonthly>
 .
*       Media requests per file: e.g. how many hits did this cool painting 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_tree#/media/File:Yggdrasil.jpg>  get 
in November? The answer is 483,791 hits 
<https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/metrics/mediarequests/per-file/all-referers/all-agents/%2Fwikipedia%2Fcommons%2Fb%2Fb9%2FYggdrasil.jpg/monthly/2019110100/2019120200>
 .
*       Top files by media requests: e.g. what was the most popular video 
yesterday, December 22nd? Fred Rogers testifying before the Senate Subcommittee 
on Communications 
<http://stats.wikimedia.org/v2/#/en.wikipedia.org/content/top-mediarequests/normal%7Ctable%7Clast-month%7Cmedia_type~video%7Cmonthly>
 . Fun! You can check out the top 1000 media files for any month or day, for 
any media type.

Media requests is, in terms of absolute numbers, a huge dataset, so the per 
file and top metrics are still being loaded with data all the way to 2015. We 
expect this loading to finish in mid January.

 

You can read more about this in Wikitech 
<https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Analytics/AQS/Mediarequests> . As usual if 
you have any questions about the dataset or the new metrics please send them 
our way here on the list or via Phabricator.

 

Happy holidays!

Francisco + the A team
