Change Details

It would help immensely if there was a gadget usage statistic implemented in MediaWiki. Knowing the usage patterns of gadgets would allow to identify rarely used and too exotic gadgets that would be better used as a traditional user script. This would help in maintaining the gadget selection list at a user friendly size and would also help to prioritize gadget development. In addition to the absolute numbers, the most meaningful information would be about "active users", with single-use testing-only accounts and dormant accounts excluded. A simple definition of "active user" could be someone who has registered more than two months ago and was active during the last month. -------------------------- **Version**: unspecified **Severity**: enhancement **See Also**: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25302 https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58196 https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59480
