Open question

  • Neil highlighted, mobile edits are naturally growing. With this in mind, are we able to figure out how much the Editing Team's work is responsible for this growth?

Context

This information will be helpful in understanding how the changes we made to mobile VE over the past year impacted the number of edits published.

This information will be communicated in the Editing Team's portion of the product department's 23 July "Year in Review" meeting.

"Done"

  • Metric showing yearly growth in number edits completed in mobile VE

Event Timeline

The number of mobile VE edits increased 94% from June 2018 to June 2019. Interesting, this was much more than mobile wikitext edits increased, even though we did not put any significant effort into routing more editors into mobile VE.
