Training page statistics: Impact/Community & Maintainer Pages

[nomadscientist]

Next step for this: #4984

1. [Impact] Would be good to get a better description of 'Goal conversions' as idk what that means and I might use it more if I did. Like I think that's the 'I completed the tutorial' button probably? And then maybe that could be broken down across tutorials, and/or compared with "People accessing page vs Completing tutorial"

2. [Impact] Total tutorials over time (i.e. pull data from 'Date created' and then that can show a nifty graph)

3. [Impact] Contributors over time for the page (same concept?)

4. [Maintaining] So once Workflow testing is there, would also be good to have a 'Last updated' listing for each tutorial, and more specifically it can be organised

5. [Maintaining] We can't sort the listings, i.e. "Top pages" is awesome but I'd like to know the tutorials nobody is accessing (I.e. worst pages), as it might be we need to remove them as they are now antiquated.

6. [Maintaining] Incidentally, I can't actually download the data from the various lists as a table. Can a button be added to allow this?

7. [Impact] Oh mate, the 'Event tracking' is absolutely brilliant. It would be SO NICE to know what's happening with this so we can bring trainers together better. Is there an FAQ or something on what we need to do to log an event so that it shows up there?

so just a subset of the global stats page? https://training.galaxyproject.org/training-material/stats/ yeah doable

most of these are very doable

if an event is registered and it uses one of the single cell training materials it will show up. (so we will not see external events)

Yes! The 'Growing community' graphs look amazing

[nomadscientist]

What does the 'Comments' column mean in the Workflows?

[nomadscientist]

Why is this saying that everything got updated today? That's weird (https://training.galaxyproject.org/training-material/topics/single-cell/maintainer.html)

[nomadscientist]

Right, so having reflected, I think that basically this maintainer page could have 2 sections:

1. Impact / metrics (Goal conversions, views, tools, tutorials, events/news over time cumulatively; updating; a lot of the excellent graphs you've made but now available for everyone writing grants etc.) In an ideal world, contributors over time (but I think that was unfeasible)
   and

• References (and perhaps a section of 'anything that cites those main references?'

2. Maintainer info (what's working on which servers, when it was last updated, is it using the latest tools in the toolshed)

[hexylena]

What does the 'Comments' column mean in the Workflows?

that they use the new comments feature https://galaxyproject.org/news/2024-04-26-workflows-workflows-workflows/#-workflow-comments (only available on the hub sadly, wish we had a tutorial for that!)

Why is this saying that everything got updated today? That's weirs

huh. yeah that's a bug. huh.

Also, there's a bit that says:
Events using materials from this Topic
TODO once this is merged: #4963
^^but that has been merged now :)

[nomadscientist]

Perhaps, in fact, an 'Impact' and a 'Maintainer' page as separate entities?

[nomadscientist]

Connecting this here too: #5486

I will also add something that seems related - it would be lovely to have a 'Community' (i.e. the SPOC Community) page that has the following metrics:

• number of members, events, publications, tools, training, news posts, per year

Obviously this means we need to tag stuff effectively, but would be lovely to be able to see that kind of a page too. Probably more of a Hub idea than a GTN idea, so will post it there.

I think that thats very doable. Members per year, might also be possible if we take their "join" date?
