Key Personnel[edit]
Project Summary[edit]
- Tracking the size of EN wiki's active community of admins
- Identifying trends in qualifying criteria for adminship
- Predicting future size of EN wiki's admin cadre
- Analysing admins in terms of their wikigenerations
- Comparing EN to other wikis
Methods[edit]
- Statistical analysis based on data available on wiki
- To produce a similar hotcold matrix for other projects I need to know the number of successful RFAs per month or per quarter for that project, such as by a link to the equivalent of en:Wikipedia:Successful_requests_for_adminship listing totals by month.
Dissemination[edit]
- Signpost articles, postings on the RFA talkpage

All data is publicly available and at least somewhat anomymised.
