Analysis

[edit]

The following is a description of the variables we'll want to measure after the test is completed. Please add to it or comment!

Qualitative improvement
  • How many authors edit their submissions after receiving a message?
  • How many authors are editing drafts and resubmitting them after being declined?
  • How many authors are editing actual articles after being accepted? (see: WP:SPA)
  • How many message recipients' articles are accepted and moved to mainspace?
  • What kind of feedback are message recipients giving the AfC process?
Retention
  • Are those who receive any of the notifications editing...
    • 0-3 days after?
    • 30 days after?
    • 60 days after?
    • ... and in what namespaces?
  • Do message recipients create any more AfC drafts or articles?
  • Are any message recipients blocked (after at any point or any duration)?
