Vítejte v dvacátém druhém newsletteru týmu Growth!

Newcomers tasks reach the 500,000 edits milestone — more data publicly available
K poslednímu červencovému týdnu nováčci na celém světě dokončili přes 500 000 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Personalized first day/Newcomer tasks|editačních tipů. Jinými slovy, nováčci pomocí funkce „Editační tipy“ uložili přes půl milionu editací.
 * Asi 30 % z těchto editací bylo uloženo z mobilního zařízení.
 * Nováčci editační tipy používají více a více: v červnu 2022 bylo dokončeno téměř 50 000 editačních tipů.

Přidali jsme nová data do Grafany. Můžete se podívat na počty editací podle jednotlivých druhů editačních tipů, nebo na počty otázek položených mentorům. Data se dají filtrovat podle projektu.

Pokud k datům máte nějaké otázky, nebo pokud chcete mít k dispozici nějaká další data, prosím, dejte nám vědět.

Ongoing projects and explorations


We are continuing our work on our new project, Positive Reinforcement. User testing of initial Positive Reinforcement designs was just completed. Interviews were conducted in Arabic, English, and Spanish. The outcome has been published on the Positive Reinforcement page. We are now utilizing user testing feedback along with prior community feedback to iterate and improve designs.

We are exploring the idea of a Copy Edit structured task. We have tested copy edits in Wikipedia articles for arwiki, bnwiki, cswiki, eswiki (Growth pilot-wikis) and enwiki with two different methods: LanguageTool and Hunspell. We will share more details here and on the associated Copy Edit page once the evaluation is complete.

Add an image was utilized at GLAM events in Argentina, Mexico, and Chile. For an overview of what was learned from these events, read: #1Pic1Article I: how Latin American heritage experts added images to Wikipedia (in English).

Experiments analysis
Add a Link Experiment Analysis has been published. The most important points are:
 * Newcomers who get the Add a Link structured task are more likely to be activated (i.e. make a constructive first article edit).
 * They are also more likely to be retained (i.e. come back and make another constructive article edit on a different day).
 * The feature also increases edit volume (i.e. the number of constructive edits made across the first couple weeks), while at the same time improving edit quality (i.e. the likelihood that the newcomer's edits aren't reverted).

Newcomer task edit type analysis has been published. 
 * Communities had expressed concern that newcomers whose initial edits were structured tasks wouldn’t go on to learn how to complete more difficult tasks. The Growth team data scientist conducted a Newcomer task edit type analysis to see if this was indeed the case.
 * Results from analysis indicate that this likely isn’t a significant concern. More than 70% of users who start with the easy task "Add a link" also make another task type. Read the full analysis and methodology here.

Novinky pro mentory
Nový systém pro seznam mentorů

The configuration of the mentors list will change over the next weeks. In the future, mentors will sign up, edit their mentor description and quit using Special:MentorDashboard. This new system will make the development of new features for mentors much easier.

At the moment, the mentor list is a simple page anyone can edit, unless it’s protected. With the new page, mentors will be able to edit only their own description, while administrators will be able to edit the entire mentors' list if needed.

The deployment will happen first at the pilot wikis, then at all wikis. Existing lists of mentors will be automatically converted, no action will be needed from the mentors. 

Mentors will be informed about the next steps soon, by a message posted on the talk page of existing Mentor lists.

Více se o strukturovaném seznamu můžete dozvědět na mediawiki.org.

Rada pro mentory

Did you know that mentors can filter their mentees' changes at Special:MentorDashboard (and star the ones that require attention)? This feature helps to keep an eye on newcomers' edits, helping mentors to fix minor details, and encourage them if necessary.

And did you know that mentors have special filters to highlight their mentees' edits at Special:RecentChanges? Look for the following filters in RecentChanges:,.

Další vylepšení

Some improvements will be made to the mentor dashboard in the coming weeks:


 * While we now offer some options for mentors to take a break, the option to quit mentoring was not easy to find. This will be improved.
 * Mentoři na wiki, které používají rozšíření FlaggedRevisions, budou moci vidět seznam editací jejich nováčků, které čekají na kontrolu.
 * Dashboard discovery for new mentors will be improved.

Poslední změny a opravené chyby

 * We moved to a new Image Suggestions API. This new API will allow us to deploy Add an Image to more wikis.
 * Starting September 19, a few more wikis now offer Add an image to newcomers. These wikis are, , , ,.
 * Add an image has been disabled for a few days due to technical issue. "Add an image" added a blank line instead of an image. This has been fixed.
 * In order to know if Special:Edit Growth Config is used by communities, we now instrument page loads and saves of configuration.
