WikiApiary:Roadmap
From WikiApiary, monitoring the MediaWiki universe
See the GitHub issue tracker for current tasks.
Outstanding To Dos:
Short term plans:
- When Bumble Bee encounters an error collecting statistics he should write that to the Talk page for the website.
Get Dygraph integrated directly (instead of through Semantic Result Formats) so data displays work better.- Change "Check every n hours" to "Collect statistics every n minutes". Allow collection as low as 15 minutes.
- Change Validated from boolean to status field: Review, Active, Not Reachable, Gone. (Now debating this, not sure it is needed. See Property talk:Is validated)
- Change Active from boolean to status: Active, Paused, Stopped. (Now debating this, not sure it is needed. See Property talk:Is active)
Publish the bot code on Github so others can contribute.Change stats collector bot to use eventing module so it operates in parallel.Not doing this since Property:Has bot segment is a better solution, multi-process FTW!- Capture counts of extension/version info each night into apiary DB to record historical version breakdown.
Longer term plans:
- Allow users to request an email if version of MediaWiki isn't current.
- Send email if version of any extension isn't current.
- Send weekly email with activity summary from wiki.
Someday plans:
- Allow wikis to use WikiApiary to do weekly backups. (Likely a paid service.)
- Allow collection of aggregated statistics by website tags.
- Develop a MediaWiki extension for WikiApiary that would allow collecting much more detailed information from a given wiki. Stubbing out Project:MediaWiki Extension for ideas.
