Path analysis is a big one. All that other stuff, if it won't violate privacy, would be fantastically useful to researchers, internal and external, in ways we won't have even thought of yet, and help us considerably to improve the projects. (This would have to be given considerable thought from a security/hacker mindset - e.g. even with IPs stripped, listing user pages and user page edits would likely give away an identity. Talk pages may do the same. Those are just off the top of my head, I'm sure someone has already made a list of what they could work out even with IPs anonymised or even stripped.) - d. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
