User:Pelagic/Incubator/Classifying Teahouse/1123

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an experiment with counting how many questions of different types are asked at the Wikipedia Teahouse, using Archive 1123. I'll see how it goes editing this on-wiki, but may have to switch to Excel for analysis or easier data entry.

A more elegant solution would be if there were some way to tag individual sections and then use a script to calculate totals for each archive.

As a first pass, I am using some keywords or phrases, then will look at other ways of grouping.

Possible abbreviations: nq = no question, cnp = create new page/article, htu = hard to understand, nt = no section title (added later by hosts), afc-no = draft rejected or declined (unspecified which) at AFC, chun = change user name, udel = delete user, svp = confusion over save versus publish (yes this comes up often enough to need its own category!), rff = request for feedback, ot = off-topic, ...
