@kzimmerman thank you for filing this task. I have a few follow up questions:

In order to prioritize this we need to know:

• Does this relate to a current OKR?
• Does this metric have a business owner?
• Does this relate to the newly forming contributor metric?

We are going to untag wikistats, because this is not about the UI, but about the data itself.

The differential privacy work that @Htriedman has been working on may also be worth evaluating as an alternative.

I believe this dataset that's already being published is strictly better and in my opinion should replace the current active editors by country data: https://analytics.wikimedia.org/published/datasets/geoeditors_weekly/ (also the monthly version)

@kzimmerman @Milimetric happy to set up a meeting next week to discuss the differences between the DP and non-DP versions of the geoeditors monthly/weekly datasets

@Milimetric FWIW about the weekly dataset — folks from product analytics told me that maintaining and publishing the monthly dataset is important for continuity with existing dataset.

Also, the DP geoeditors dataset only goes back to July 2023, but it would be relatively to extend that dataset (at least for editor counts) back to Jan 2018.

Hi @VirginiaPoundstone, my responses are below:

• Does this relate to a current OKR?

I'm not sure if this relates to a current OKR - @CMyrick-WMF could answer that.

• Does this metric have a business owner?

It does not (yet), but @OSefu-WMF / the Movement Insights team should be the point of contact.

• Does this relate to the newly forming contributor metric?

Yes - and Omari is leading discussions about the contributor metric.

• Does this relate to a current OKR?

I'm not sure if this relates to a current OKR - @CMyrick-WMF could answer that.

Not that I'm aware of. I was just using Wikistats as a way to QA the outputs of some queries I ran for my work related to language metrics.
