Part 2: Metrics[edit]
8a. In your application, you outlined some core metrics that you would like to measure and the targets for each metric. In the following table please highlight the metrics and describe the qualitative or quantitative results to date, if applicable. You can also provide any comments or analysis regarding these results and mention the tools used.
| Core metrics | Description | Target | Results | Comments | Methodology |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of participants | The number of people who attend your events, programs or activities, either in person or virtually. This definition does not include people organizing activities, social media followers, donors, or others not participating directly.
The aggregated number is not for unique participants, but for each event they are unique. For each individual event we compile Global Metrics and aggregate them with a bot twice per year. The total number of participants in all of our activities: 3,000 with currently funded plans. 5,000 if the entire budget is secured. The expectation is that Covid-19 will limit what activities we can organize for at least half the year. |
5000 | |||
| Number of editors | The number of participants that have contributed with edits to one of the Wikimedia platforms, as part of one of our activities. This is measured e.g. by them being added to the Programs & Events Dashboard or signing up on a contest page.
For each individual event we compile Global Metrics and collate them with a bot twice per year. The total number of editors in all of our activities: 600 with currently funded plans. 900 if the entire budget is secured. The expectation is that Covid-19 will limit what activities we can organize for at least half the year. |
900 | |||
| Number of organizers | The number of organizers and volunteers involved in organizing an event. In this metric only the people that have not already been added to Total participants are included.
We will collect data on the self-stated gender of the organizers, with a goal that men, women and others should be well represented, with no group constituting more than 50%. For each individual event we compile Global Metrics and collate them with a bot twice per year. The total number of organizers in all of our activities: 200 with currently funded plans. 300 if the entire budget is secured. |

| Wikimedia Project | Description | Target | Results | Comments | Methodology |

| Number of people reached through social media publications | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| Number of activities developed | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| Number of volunteer hours | We will survey all of the volunteers that have contributed to the organization’s work.
If a response is missing and can not be compiled in time for the report, the average for that type of volunteer activity will be used as a proxy. We have not systematically collected this data previously. 2022 will form the baseline. Therefore 0 is added as the target (even though we of course will aim for the number to be as high as possible). |
