Questions by Dušan Kreheľ[edit]

  • What is the source of the list votes? As date, valid / invalid votes.
  • What is the purpose of the analysis? (specifies calculation)?
  • Ah, sums of columns. Is the amount greater than the number of people?
project qualifying most edited homewiki
Sum() 6611 2203.67 734.56
  • How much clean time it took to create this document?


I do like more User:Dušan Kreheľ/To find the most common wiki for voters. ✍️ Dušan Kreheľ (talk) 18:05, 1 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

The goal for this was not to find the most common wiki of voters (which is also interesting), but to see which projects voters were active on in the 6-month eligibility window. So we looked at the 2352 voters and then listed each wiki they had 20 edits on in that window to then arrive at the count of voting users representing editors of that project. In this way voters can represent more than one project, and explains why the sum is higher than the number of voters. I also included the data on "most edited" (of all time) for curiosity. Wikis always had more qualifying editors than they had home wiki and most edited voters. Xeno (WMF) (talk) 18:28, 1 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Xeno (WMF) If you have more people to calculate than in reality, you have to recount the number of real people (base: ratio). Dušan Kreheľ (talk) 18:54, 1 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
My error. I have a question: I have the N people, how more popular is wiki for this N people. You have another question, so the another answer. Dušan Kreheľ (talk) 19:20, 1 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
Are you trying to quantify the volunteers' contribs, to grant multi-project-people a bigger voting power? If so: opposed. I'm more into "one person, one vote". MBq (talk) 19:02, 1 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
No, it would always remain one voter one vote in the actual tally and end result. The reason I thought this data would be interesting is due to the subject matter: rules that would be applicable on every project. So I wanted to see: did every project, or at least the majority of them, have some people that had edited there recently (enough to “qualify in a vacuum” on that project) that participated in this vote? For example, prior to this data, it wasn’t clear that EnWikiBooks and Ms.Wikipedia has any active users participating in the vote (meanwhile they did). Xeno (WMF) (talk) 19:10, 1 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
