#1 |
To know how many ZIM files are downloaded over time |
- # downloads over time
- Downloads / files / times displayed as a chart
- Time period should be configurable
- Downloads over time should be easily viewed:
- By total downloads
- By language
- By collection
|
??? |
- Should include both PediaPress downloads and those downloaded from Kiwix library
|
#2 |
To know how often new revisions of large/popular collections are offered(over time) |
- Average time lapse between updates in months by collection
|
??? |
Only for common collections: e.g., Wikipedia 1.0, Wikipedia for Schools
|
#3 |
Track the number of languages with offline options available |
- Languages with offline options over time
|
??? |

|
??? |
|
#5 |
To know the reach of the offline work |
- # of viewers of offline materials by month
- Viewership over time should be easily viewed by different distributors
- Viewership over time should be easily viewed by collection breakdowns:
- By total
- By collection
- By language
- By category (e.g., topical, schools package, country-specific)

Solution
For all charts the period may be select for the whole stats page. So this is not a topic for each chart.
#1
- If we want a centralized solution to get informations about ZIM file downloads without having a central repository... each provider should provide their stats. I propose in a first time to do that for kiwix ZIM files to see if this is OK.
- This seems to me to be the most important KPI
- I can do that with only one chart representing download count with bars over time. A total count will be also displayed. I would add two comboboxes to allow filtering. One to choose a language (per default "all"). A second offering a list of ZIM files in the pre-selected language (per default "all").
#2
- Seems to me to be irrelevant now:
- Kiwix ZIM files are not "refreshed" periodicaly
- For WP ZIM files... they are build dynamically... does not make sense.Kelson 16:59, 27 July 2011 (CEST)
#3
- Does the number of ZIM files in a language over time would be OK?. A chart with bar with a filtering combox with languages (per default "all") Kelson 17:01, 27 July 2011 (CEST)
- Could be interesting if generated from different library.xml Kelson 17:02, 27 July 2011 (CEST)
#4
- Seems to me not feasible... Collection are to 90% not reviewed... and we do not have categories for ZIM files Kelson 17:04, 27 July 2011 (CEST)
#5
- We do not have a system to monitor the viewership... this is also critical in term of privacy protection. Not sure we need that... download counts should be a good indicator. Only online readers could also be tracked. This make many flaws. Kelson 17:08, 27 July 2011 (CEST)
#6
- Similar answer as for #1... but with a map. Kelson 17:09, 27 July 2011 (CEST)
#7
- Similar answer as for #5... but with may use the kiwix sw update check system (need to be implemented) to know where kiwix is run.... Kelson 17:19, 27 July 2011 (CEST)

#1 |
To know how many Kiwix readers are downloaded over time |
- # downloads over time
- Downloads / files / times displayed as a chart
- Time period should be configurable
- Downloads over time should be easily viewed:
- By total downloads
- By language
- By collection
|
Currently offered on Sourceforge |
|
#2 |
To know which operating systems are downloading Kiwix |
- # downloads by Operating System
- # downloads by Operating System over time
- Time period should be configurable
|
Share can be seen on Sourceforge, but not over time |
|
#3 |
To know how often new versions of Kiwix is offered (over time) |
- Average time lapse between updates in months by collection
- This would show healthy amounts of activity in the developer community
|
??? |
|
#4 |
To know where the offline work is penetrating by location |
- # of downloads by location over time
- Time period should be configurable (and not just cumulative)
|
Downloads and map can be viewed on Sourceforge |
Downloads not viewable over time
|
#5 |
To know where the offline work is being viewed on Kiwix by location |
- # of Kiwix users by geography
|
The software update system should always "ping" a specific url. We should analyse that logs. |
|
#6 |
To know why Kiwix was downloaded |
- Breakdown of main reasons for download (e.g., "Use in schools," "Personal use")
