Analysis
Analysis

Like September, this was an unusually good month for active editors, with all the subcomponents rising year on year. We are currently researching the role that participants in Wiki Education Foundation’s programs are playing in the new active editor and new editor retention metrics; preliminary work suggests that they are having a noticeable effect.

The global revert rate has continued to drop substantially; our hypothesis is that this is due to the continuing rise of mass editing on Wikidata, which inflates the number of edits without increasing the number of reverts.

Notes

¹ Editor location data is deleted after 90 days, so it is not possible to calculate trends from before the metric was established. Trends started to accumulate in June 2018.

² Pageviews (all platforms) + seen previews (desktop).

³ The rollout of the page previews feature was completed less than a year ago.

⁴ A delay in the calculation of new editor retention meant that the geolocation data used to judge whether a new editor comes from the Global South or Global North was deleted before the calculation could be completed (under our privacy policy, this data must be deleted after 90 days). We will assess our calculation pipeline to determine how to prevent this from happening in the future.

Analysis

This month, we have updated our definition of Global South to exclude IP addresses that our geolocation database cannot assign to any particular country (“unknown countries”).

This has had a relatively small impact on Global South reader interactions and editors, since unknown countries account for less than 1% of both interactions and editors. However, it has had a very large impact on Global South edits, which declined from 9.05 M last month to 1.98 M this month. The main reason seems to be that the IP addresses used for the Wikimedia Cloud Services platform do not appear in our geolocation database, so bulk edits made on the platform are categorized as from unknown countries.

ꯎꯨꯠꯊꯣꯛꯄ ꯑꯦꯅꯥꯂꯥꯏꯁꯤꯁ ꯇꯧꯕ
Overall, the trends this month are as before. Notable continuing trends include:


 * The gradual increase in existing active editors. This trend is also reflected in a gradual increase in the monthly number of editors with 100 or more edits per month, also know as very active editors (see graph).
 * The decline in newer contributors, which affects a broad spectrum of editors.
 * The (continued) growth of mobile contributions.

Metrics analysis
We are still seeing a year-over-year increase in pageviews, although smaller than during the preceding four months. This slight slowdown is due to changes to both the rate of decline on desktop and rate of increase on mobile.

As before, keep in mind that the decrease in desktop pageviews is partly due to the deployment of the page previews feature over the course of the 2017/18 fiscal year. The upcoming Audiences metrics presentation will include some further analysis and observations.

Unique devices likewise increased year-over-year but less than in previous months.
