Abstract

The WMF Community Tech team is working on a tool to help event organizers get metrics about editathons and similar events. In this session, I’ll give an update on where we are with this project. The sessions goal: to bring event organizers together and gather feedback that will guide decisions the team is making right now about the Event Metrics tool. I am literally going to take votes on individual features—how they might work and whether they should be included or not. So if you are a potential Event Metrics user (or an existing user of Grant Metrics, which is the tool Event Metrics is replacing), this is a session you won't want to miss.
