[edit] Project Summary
Moodbar is an experimental feature aimed at getting quick feedback on the editing experience of new editors. Its is part of the new editor engagement initiatives. The initial implementation of this feature will be targeted at getting feedback from new editors of Wikipedia (the feature being initially enabled on new accounts only). The goal is to obtain feedback to better understand the experience of these new editors, which can then be used as input for further feature development. Message posted via MoodBar are publicly displayed on the feedback dashboard.
[edit] Data and live analytics dashboard
Several dashboards plotting up-to-date metrics from Moodbar data are available from this page on the Toolserver. The plots are refreshed every 24 hours. Moodbar datasets for research purposes have not been released yet in the form of data dumps or toolserver tables, but static datasets of the metrics displayed in the data dashboard are published on the above page. Real-time moodbar messages can also be browsed via the feedback dashboard.
