Analyze number of users using each available skin on English Wikipedia who have recently edited
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Background
For this, analysis, we would like to filter the data from T327953: Analyze number of users using each available skin on English Wikipedia to users that have edited or visited the site since Jan 18, 2023

Acceptance criteria
Number of users using each available skin on English Wikipedia, split by:

-all registered users who have visited the site since Jan 18, 2023 Note: T328088#8572617

  • all editors who have visited the site since Jan 18, 2023
  • active editors who have visited the site since Jan 18, 2023

If we cannot filter by site visits, filtering by whether they have made an edit will also be acceptable. We're trying to do an additional check for everyone who has so far been exposed to the new skin

Event Timeline

We don't have schema to track the visits (pageviews) at user level. The readers' user_ids and user_names are not logged when they visit our site. Therefore we don't have data to answer the questions in original request. With the available data, we can measure:

  • all editors who have edited the site since Jan 18, 2023
  • active editors who have edited the site since Jan 18, 2023

Summary

The Vector-2022 was deployed on English Wikipedia at 15:30 on 2023-01-18 (UTC). Below analysis focused on the editors who have edited after the deployment. Core product metric: active editors (definition doc) only counts content editors. Here we count editors on all pages in order to include all editors who ever saw Vector-2022 in analysis. One caveat is that global preference is not counted in (T327561).

All editors who have edited the site since Jan 18, 2023

Below table summarizes the skin status on 2023-01-30 in percentage of the editors (include bots) who edited at least once on English Wikipedia after the deployment. (2023-01-18 15:30 UTC)

Will including bots in analysis skew the skin distribution?

The analysis result in T328088#8573016 counts for all editors including bots. Below tables summarize the skin status of non-bot editors at the same time with the same definition. The skin status of editors excluding bots is very close to that of editors including bots, because the bot group is too small to skew the distribution.
