Update 2022–09-05: Newcomer & Mentorship Data

 * Newcomer & Mentorship Data
 * We’ve added more data to the Growth KPIs, so you can better understand how Growth tools are used on your wiki.  You can not only view the total number of each Suggested Edit task type that is clicked on and completed for your wiki, but also the revert counts for each task type. You can view the number of questions posted to mentors, along with where those questions originate. And the Account Registration metrics show the number of new accounts created and allow you to easily see if there is an experiment running on your wiki which results in a certain percentage of newcomers not automatically receiving Growth features.
 * Communities had expressed concern that newcomers who tried structured tasks wouldn’t go on to learn how to complete more difficult tasks, so a WMF data scientist conducted 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. In this analysis, we use data from wikis where Add a Link was deployed and examine whether newcomers who start out with Add a Link edits end up continuing to only make those types of article edits. We also do the same for users who started out with a different Newcomer Tasks edit, so we can compare between the two groups. We find that both groups are more likely to go on to make additional article edits compared to those who do not start out with a Newcomer Tasks, and that more than 70% of newcomers who start out with Add a Link go on to make a combination of Newcomer Tasks and other article edits or only other kinds of article edits.
