Establish an essential metric for community resilience and sustainability
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Our movement metrics currently include metrics for tracking content size, community size, and new editor success. We don't have anything that provides a view into the health of curation and moderation processes and communities. We should add one.

There was a major effort to do so in fiscal year 2023-24 (T357465), but unfortunately senior leadership declined the proposed metric and the effort was ended.

Event Timeline

Quantity of rollbacks (or reverts, although that's harder to measure) and deletions is probably the most straightforward measure of moderator burden.

I actually think we should keep this open to reflect that we do still want a "moderator health"/"community resilience and sustainability" metric, even if the most recent effort to make one did not succeed.
