Email confirmation rate for new accounts
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Background

As part of the new email confirmation experiment, we need a baseline for the email confirmation rate for new accounts.

Task

For registered accounts created in the last 90 days, calculate:

  • Confirmation rate among accounts that provided an email address
    • of all new registered accounts that added an email address, what percentage confirmed that email within 24 hours of account creation?
    • calculation: number of new registered accounts that confirmed an email within 24 hours ÷ number of new registered accounts that provided an email address
  • Confirmation rate among all registered accounts
    • of all new registered accounts, including accounts that did not add an email address, what percentage confirmed an email within 24 hours of account creation?
    • calculation: number of new registered accounts that confirmed an email within 24 hours ÷ total number of new registered accounts

Provide both calculations for:

  • enwiki only
  • all wikis combined

Exclude temporary accounts from all calculations.

For each calculation, include:

  • confirmation rate
  • number of accounts that confirmed an email within 24 hours
  • total number of accounts used in the calculation
  • exact 90-day date range used (April 1 through June 30)
