Quantitative summary of past Outreachy projects
Completed Outreachy projects since 2013:

Create a Ruby Gem to analyze Wikidata Statistics

 * Mentees: Sulagna Saha
 * Mentors: Sage Ross, Will Kent
 * Outcome: Published the gem which provides functionality to parse the differences between Wikidata revisions and extract statistics about the changes. It enables accurate analysis of Wikidata edits, such as counting the number of claims, qualifiers, references, aliases, labels, descriptions and site links added, removed, and changed. The gem is integrated to Programs and Events Dashboard and deployed.
 * Tech Stack: The gem is written by Ruby programming language.
 * Relavant links: Wikidata-diff-analyzer, Github Repo for the gem, Integration
 * Blog: Sulagna's Blog

Content Translation language imbalances

 * Mentee: Nathaly Toledo.
 * Mentors: Adam Wight, Kavitha Appakayala, Jan Dittrich.
 * Outcome: Two research questions were solved and one was advanced. The research questions and related reasoning were:
 * What is the content being translated the most? What patterns can be found? Try finding a dataset that will let you know what articles lack translations (calculate an average), and classify them to understand patterns that could lead to an answer.
 * RQ 3.1: What is the effect of MT availability on translation flow? Let’s consider three distinct types of events changing MT availability: enabling MT where there was none, changing default MT engine, and disabling MT. The question explores the impact machine translation would have on better more translation are sent or started as a consequence of the practicality and also whether they are less likely to be deleted soon after being created.
 * Do users prefer to translate content in their native language(s)? If so, what influences this behavior? The question is based on the assumption that the strongest communities also correspond to the larger languages, and these communities tend to be under the “self-focus” bias, which prompts tend to create and translate content in their first language first (and about their own culture first). It also assumes that the most confortable someone is in their own language levels, the more likely they are to translate in it.
 * Tech stack: Python, Jupyther Notebooks.

Develop a web app for editing Toolhub records

 * Mentees: Nicole Barnabee-Burns, Hannah Waruguru Njoroge
