Hello Research, It it possible to query for the watchers of a page? It does not seem to be in the API, nor is the "watchers" or "wl_user" table in the Data Base replicas (where I thought MediaWiki stores it. I imagine this is for privacy reasons, correct? If so, how would one gain access?
I have been talking with an "econophysicist" who thinks that we could apply a "contagion" algorithm, to see which edits are "contagious". (I met this econopyhicist at the Berkeley Data Science Faire at which Wikimedia Analytics presented, so it was worth it in the end). Maximilian Klein Wikipedian in Residence, OCLC +17074787023
