Grants talk:PEG/Violetova/Wikipedian in Residence/Report

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

Hi Violetova, thank you for submitting this great report about your work at DARM in the last six months. Your original goals focused on the amount of content that would be uploaded to Commons and used in projects. Although you were not able to upload as many files/images as you expected, we are impressed with the high rates of images in use, and the large number of people you have trained as part of your work.

  • The DARM challenge seems to be successful, by July 7th the rate of files in use had increased from 16% (when you wrote this report) to 28%. We are happy to hear you got help from so many volunteers to plan the contest, and it looks like people from many different countries have participated!
  • We understand that it is difficult to track the number of articles created and improved using the content from the Commons category you are using. According to the GLAMorgan tool, 397 pages used files from the Commons category you are using. You can use the GLAMorgan tool to check the number of page views files in a specific Commons category get each month, and it will show you the 25 most viewed images. This information might help you learn what topics and kind of content is most popular with readers and editors.

We appreciate all of your hard work on this project, and will post questions on the talk page of your new request. --KHarold (WMF) (talk) 16:11, 8 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
