Metrics Brainstorm Session, WMCON 2014: Summary and Discussion

---

Page Summary

This report is an overview of a discussion started on Measuring Program Impact on Projects, at a brainstorm session during the Wikimedia Conference 2014 in Berlin. The goal of the session was to start a community discussion around the various metrics used in the Evaluation Reports (beta), get the community's feedback around the metrics presented in the report series specifically in terms of what the metrics tell us, what they do not tell us, and how we else we might capture other important measures of program impact. After a brief introduction workshop participants broke up into two groups; the first group brainstormed on programs that focused on producing text while a second group on programs that focus on images. After brainstorming other important impact targets for measurement, and possible ways of measuring those targets, each participant was allowed to vote on their highest priorities.
