== Background
Deploying page previews will cause total pageviews to decrease. However, we hypothesize that "page interactions" (where page interactions are defined as any interaction with a different page (i.e. page previews + pageviews) will increase. We would like a way to track this metric over time as a means of testing this hypothesisPage Previews on a wiki will cause the total pageviews to decrease for that wiki.
== Acceptance cHowever, we hypothesize that "page interactions" – any intentional interaction with a page, i.e. page previews + pageviews – will increase. We would like a way to track this metric over time as a means of testing this hypothesis.
=== Requirements/Constraints
# The page interaction data that we collect from Page Previews should //eventually// be available as Hive tables like [[ https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Analytics/Data_Lake/Traffic/Pageview_hourly | `wmf.pageview_hourly` ]]
== Acceptance Criteria
[] Determine a way to report on the following (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly):
- Total page views
- Total page previews
- Total page interactions (pageviews + page previews)
== Notes
- Example comparison: total pageviews this month last year vs total page interactions this year
- to- To count as a page previewinteraction, we must determina page preview must be intentionality, i.e. a page preview opened for > x ms.
- there may be various ways of approaching this: via eventlogging, grafana, etc. the preview must be open for more than X milliseconds.
