AMC Metrics Status Report (FY2018-2019)

Summary

The Advance mobile contributions (AMC) mode is a feature set that adds more contributor capabilities to the mobile web experience (project page). This report shows the status of the key performance indicators identified in the Annual Plan as of the end of June 2019.

The feature was was first deployed as an opt-in setting on Arabic, Indonesian, and Spanish Wikipedias on March 20, 2019 due to their relatively large populations of existing mobile editors. On June 17, 2019, the team released a second set of features and included additional Wikipedias for testing and feedback (Italian, Japanese, Persian, and Thai). Please seel the full list of target wikis.

This report reflects the status of the KPIs as of the end of FY18-19 (June 2019). AMC is still in the process of being deployed and has not yet been promoted. Metrics will be re-caculated following full rolllout and promotion in Q1.

Metrics

In the annual plan, the Readers Web team defined the following KPis:

Mobile web edit rate on target wikis.

  • Target: 10% increase from last year (overall metric).
  • Mobile web edits are defined using the existing edit tag.
  • Also reviewed tag edits from the new AMC edits tag (done in T212959) to see if they reach 1/11th of total mobile web edits, defined using the existing edit tag.

Retention rate for opt-in advanced mobile mode amongst medium and high-volume editors (100+ edits previous month) ( eswiki, arwiki, idwiki, thwiki, itwiki, jawiki, fawiki (overall, 100+ edits, 500+ edits).

  • Target: At least 60% retention.
  • Measured using the opt-in/opt-out button (done in T211197 using the PrepUpdate mf_amc_optin). This is set to true each time someone opts out.

Moderation actions on mobile web on target wikis

  • Target: 10% increase from last year - via the logs - not looking at AMC only but overall.
  • Moderation actions are defined in T213461

For more links to implementation tasks and technical details, see this overview task T210660

Mobile Web Edit Rate

For this report, we reviewed the mobile edit rate on the following:

  • Rate on target wikis where deployed: eswiki, arwiki, idwiki, itwiki, jawiki, fawiki, thwiki
  • overall rate across target wikis where AMC has been deployed
  • overall rate among active editors, in particular medium and high-volume editors (100+ edits 500+ edits).
  • proportion of AMC tagged edits out of the total mobile web edits defined using existing tag.

Notes:

  • The tag identifies which edits come from users that have AMC enabled.
  • Article editing should be performed in the mobile mode.
  • Articles should be tagged advanced mobile edit and mobile web edit when AMC interface enabled

There was a steady increase in total mobile web edits the past year, which has been occuring prior to the deployment of AMC on target wikis. This is likely partly due to a sustained increase in overall active editors.

AMC was deployed to sets of target wikis on March 20, 2019 and June 17, 2019 but was not yet promoted. We will continue to monitor trends following full deployement and promotion of AMC.

Following deployment of the feature on March 20, 2019, only a small proportion of total mobile web edits were made while in AMC mode on Arabic, Spanish and Indonesian Wikipedias. There was a weekly increase in the proportion of edits made with AMC on Spanish and Indonesian Wikipedias, while there was a decrease on Arabic Wikipedia

Retention Rate

We reviewed the retention rate for opt-in advanced mobile mode amongst:

  • overall across all target wikis where deployed
  • eswiki, arwiki, idwiki, thwiki, itwiki, jawiki, fawiki
  • Users with 100+ edits, 500+ edits (cumulative).

Target: At least 60% retention. This is measured using the opt-in/opt-out button (done in T211197 using the PrepUpdate mf_amc_optin). This is set to true when a user opts out and set to false when they opt in. Schema: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Schema:PrefUpdate

Notes:

  • Some general concerns about the data quality of the PrefUpdate schema, regarding duplicate events. T218835
  • Toggle is on the mobile settings page for logged in users server and client side
  • The feature is available as a separate setting (not a part of beta)

The retention rate of AMC was lower for medium to high volume editors compared to low volume editors. There was a 70.8% overall retention rate limited to users with 100+ and 61.4% rate limited to users with 500+ edits (time period: March 20, 2019-June 30, 2019).

Moderation Actions on Mobile Web

We reviewed the rate of moderation actions performed on mobile web on all the target wikis were deployed. The target was a 10% increase from last year on all mobile web (not just AMC tagged edits). Since moderation actions recorded in the log table were not tagged with both the mobile web edit and amc tag until March 18, 2019 (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T215477#5008003), we could not calculate a yoy increase for these actions but reviewed changes since March 2019 to June 2019.

Moderation actions are defined in T213461

Final moderation action list:

Using the ct_tag table

  • undo (under ct tags tag_name = 'mw-undo'; should show up in user contributions)
  • rollback (under ct tags tag_name = 'mw-rollback'; should show up in user contributions)

Using thelogs table

  • blocking users (log_action = 'block', from log table)
  • unblocking (log_action = 'unblock', from log table)
  • deleting (log_action = 'delete', from log table)
  • protecting pages (log_action = 'protect', from log table)
  • moving pages (log_action = 'move', from log table)
  • thanks (log_action = 'thank')
  • approving pending changes. Note that (per the documentation, this feature is only available on three of the wikis from the initial AMC deployment, namely arwiki, fawiki idwiki.

Notes:

  • When the following actions are executed from an AMC opted-in account, they should be tagged with both advanced mobile edit and mobile web edit in the corresponding public log.
  • This analysis currently just includes the increase in moderation actions across all target wiki on mobile web and is not limited to actions tagged as AMC.

TODOs:

  • (enwiki-specific:) reviewing new pages (cf. Special:NewPagesFeed)
  • other reverts (that are not done via either undo or rollback)
  • Investigate mobile web edit tagging to see why delete, unblock and protect are not being tagged correctly. Previous subtask to create and vet query T220148
  • Look at proportions of mobile web edits tagged with amc tag

There are no significant changes in the rate of each moderation action type use from March 2019 to June 2019. Both the thank and the block actions are the most commonly used moderation actions on mobile web in the target countries. There were no tags of delete, protect or unblock as mobile web edit in the past year. We will investigate futher to determine if this is due to a an error in how these events were recorded.
