How to effectively manage Wiki initiatives with the Programs & Events Dashboard (and Event Metrics!)
Wikimania 2019

The Programs & Events Dashboard is a tool which assists the management of Wiki programs and events. It tracks metrics such as the number of articles created, edits made, bytes added, and files uploaded, as well as the number of page views the articles have received, giving organizers are a more complete understanding of the impact their participants have. The Dashboard also includes tools to, for example, highlight what parts of an article were contributed by participants, or visualize the change in articles' quality. The session will help Wikimedia and Education programs organizers to get to know some of the new and underused features of the Dashboard. The session is suitable for both newbies and experienced users of the Dashboard. The session will start with the background of the tool, and a walkthrough of basics of creating a program on the Dashboard. The participants will have the opportunity for hands-on learning to test the features demonstrated. The second part of the session will highlight some new and underused features of the Dashboard, including ORES plots, article development graphs, and campaign alerts.
