As part of the work on MinT for Wiki Readers MVP (T359072), an instrumentation plan was defined (T341185) and different events have been instrumented (T363685, T366149). This allows to capture events as users make use of machine translation to learn more from Wikipedia in other languages.
This ticket is focused on measuring the impact of exposing machine translated article sections to readers of underserved communities. Since MinT for Wiki Readers has been exposed very recently, the first analysis will capture the initial impact, and we may want to recheck the results periodically as the discovery of the tool increases. In addition, being present in a set of different Wikipedia communities, it may be relevant to have a sense of the differences in the results across communities.
Eventually, we should be able to check whether the projections for the hypothesis were achieved. The initial target was for machine translations to represent a 3% of the total interactions for the affected wikis:
3% increase in page interactions (including direct views and views to automatic translations of content) for pilot Wikipedias experimenting machine translation for the first time.
