Wikimedia Discovery/Checkin meeting minutes/2015-12-01

From mediawiki.org

Topics from the past[edit]

  • Analysis team hasn’t been sufficiently notified of changes to data-related backend stuff, leading to missing data on the dashboards.
    • Oliver, Mikhail, Dan will discuss further
  • Quick survey ?
    • Probably not this year (due to external dependencies: inability to track users across wikis)
    • What could we do this quarter? Moiz/Tomasz will ponder; Moiz will meet w/Abby
  • Q3 goals

Announcements, Information, Questions[edit]

  • Quarterly review Jan 21; Tomasz may ask for help
  • Beta feature needs an icon; Dan created a skeletal task for it https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T119991
  • Yuri has suggested adding graphs to the dashboard
    • Dan will discuss w/Analysis team
    • Graphs have ongoing maintenance; not all possible graphs should be implemented
  • Reminder that we should embrace the open source approach, accepting contributions from outside the team
  • FYI: Blazegraph will release a new version soon, with geospatial search; might want to integrate into WDQS. Details to come; may be relevant next quarter.
