I want to link an outreach dashboard to an already existing program

Hello, I want to link this Dashboard here with an already existing program, kindly review,

https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Africa_and_Proud/Afro_Festival/home above is the link to the dashboard i want to link with this General Program of the Culture Connect Africa!

https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/campaigns/culture_connect_africa_2025/programs (Link to the general Program) Linason Blessing (talk) 07:13, 29 December 2025 (UTC)

Hello @Linason Blessing thank you for the links. You can link your 'Afro Festival' program to the 'Culture Connect Africa 2025' campaign yourself by following these steps:

1. Go to your Afro Festival program page.
2. Click 'Edit Details' on the Home tab.
3. Scroll to the bottom and find the 'Campaigns' section.
4. Click the '+' button and search for/select 'Culture Connect Africa 2025' click 'Add'
5. Add then 'Save'.

Once done, your event's statistics will automatically be included in the general program. Let me know if you need further help! Formasit-chijoh (talk) 18:37, 29 December 2025 (UTC)

Thank you Linason Blessing (talk) 02:42, 4 January 2026 (UTC)

Problem with programs

Hi, there is not up-to-date numbers of articles created at least for the programs: https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Wikimedia_MKD/Wiki_Clubs_2025/ https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Wikimedia_MKD/Wiki_Senior_2025 https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Wikimedia_MKD/Wikipractice_2025

We need the numbers for final report, which we started to create, as the year 2025 is ending soon.

Thank you Виолетова (talk) 19:41, 29 December 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for reaching out. I will look into why the 'Articles created' metric isn't updating and will trigger a manual update if required. I'll update you as soon as possible. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 03:55, 30 December 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Виолетова a manual update was ran for your courses and the stats for the 'Articles created' has been updated, hope it solves your issue. Please let us know if there is anything else. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 19:20, 30 December 2025 (UTC)

Tibetan Wikieditathon event dashboard is not working.

Hi, We are currently not able to access our project event dashboard which is on this link. It has been broken since today's morning.

Than you

@Kaldan007 ~2025-43911-73 (talk) 11:27, 30 December 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for reporting this, I see the issue got fixed as I am able to access your program though the link. Please let us know if there are any other issues. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 19:23, 30 December 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Formasit-chijoh,

It was solved back then but it is not working today again. Can you please bring it back as i have editathon happening tomorrow at 2 pm IST.

Dashboard emptied

Hello,

We held an event on November 15, and due to the dashboard crash, all of the data appears to have been cleared. I understand that there is currently a backlog of updates, but I was wondering if there is any indication of when our dashboard might be updated again.

Additionally, could there possibly be another issue we should be aware of?

Thank you very much for your help. ThamaraGroenleer (talk) 10:16, 20 January 2026 (UTC)

Hi @ThamaraGroenleer thank you for reporting this

Some user records created after November 14, 2025 were not included in the recovery process. As a result, any students or editors added to this course after that date may not currently appear.

What to do next:

- If you have a list of the editors usernames, please re-add them to the course manually.

- If you don’t have the usernames, you can resend the course enrollment link so that students can re-enroll themselves.

Once the editors have been re-added, the course data will automatically populate with data during the next update cycle.

Please do let us know if you have anymore questions. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 21:16, 23 January 2026 (UTC)

Dashboard missing Articles Created numbers

Hello, the Dashboard of the PAMM Wikipedia in Residence program is lacking many Articles Created. Could you provide any assistance on when these numbers would be restored? Thank you!

https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/P%C3%A9rez_Art_Museum_Miami/PAMM_Wikimedian_in_Residence_(Jan_2023_-_July_2026) MichaelaBlanc (talk) 19:11, 21 January 2026 (UTC)

Hello @MichaelaBlanc could you provide some example article where the the Article created stats is not included on the dashboard.

In the mean time, I will look into why the 'Articles created' metric isn't updating and will trigger a full update if required. I'll update you as soon as possible Formasit-chijoh (talk) 21:06, 22 January 2026 (UTC)

Thanks! @Formasit-chijoh! Also, I have a question. Is there a way for me to check dashboard metrics from a particular time window? For instance, one month to the other? Thanks again! MichaelaBlanc (talk) 16:34, 3 February 2026 (UTC)

Hi @MichaelaBlanc

hope the initial issue you reported about your program showing fewer “Articles Created” than expected has been resolved after the full update.

To answer your second question:

We don’t currently have a feature that supports this directly. The usual approach is to create a new event page with the same users and settings, but limited to the specific time period you want metrics for. Once that event is processed, you’ll be able to view metrics for that desired timeframe.

(This assumes you’re referring to the Programs & Events Dashboard.) Formasit-chijoh (talk) 21:51, 3 February 2026 (UTC)

Activity of Dashboard is not closed

Hello, I participated to a onde day workshop the 9th November 2025 :

https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Cin%C3%A9ma_Municipal_Le_Cosmos/r%C3%A9alisatrices_et_actrices_afro-descendantes_germanophones_avec_Noircir_Wiki_(dimanche_9_novembre_2025)/home

The dashboard is still counting all my modifications since that time !!!

https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Cin%C3%A9ma_Municipal_Le_Cosmos/r%C3%A9alisatrices_et_actrices_afro-descendantes_germanophones_avec_Noircir_Wiki_(dimanche_9_novembre_2025)/activity/recent

I do not understand why, as the counter of the dashboard activity is correctly done and should have stopped recording activity after the end date and hour  :

Début du suivi d’activité: 2025-11-09 08:00 heure normale d’Europe centrale

Fin du suivi d’activité: 2025-11-09 23:56 heure normale d’Europe centrale

Can you fix it ?

Thanks Waltercolor (talk) 16:30, 18 February 2026 (UTC)

Hello @Waltercolor. It is completely normal for the Activity tab to continue showing your recent edits after an event ends, as it pulls a live feed of your contributions.

Rest assured, this does not affect your program statistics. The official stats are calculated using a separate data table that only includes edits made between the specific start and end dates you set. You can verify this by checking your course totals you will notice that your "Articles Edited" and "Words Added" counts have remained the same since the workshop concluded.

If you have any other worries, please let us know. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 15:51, 20 February 2026 (UTC)

Thanks @Formasit-chijoh for the answer. But all my dashboard~s that I create for my workshops stop the counter of the actitivities of the profiles that were added to the dashboard. I find it unacceptable that people can see in real time all my current activities just by looking at this frenzy dashboard. Can you please fix it, it is not normal at all, and I am the only one who is concerned by this. Why is this happening ? Waltercolor (talk) 16:34, 20 February 2026 (UTC)

Sure I understand your concern, I will create an issue for this to be fixed and update you once it is. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 18:46, 20 February 2026 (UTC)

Method to delete multiple 'Available Articles'?

Hi!

I wanted to add a large list of Wikidata items to the list of Available Articles, however, I incorrectly added the full url instead of the Wikidata IDs. This resulted in a large list (>800) of invalid links to the pages. Is there any way to mass remove these instead of time-consuming process of selecting 'Remove' for each one? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you! https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Trans_Music_Archive/Trans_Music_Archive_2026/articles/available RobinIsadorable (talk) 21:05, 18 February 2026 (UTC)

Hello @RobinIsadorable Unfortunately, there is no built-in way to mass-remove articles on the dashboard. I can run a manual query to clear the list for you, but please note this will delete all existing assignments alongside the invalid links. If you're okay with starting the list from scratch, let me know and I can proceed!

Formasit-chijoh (talk) 21:05, 20 February 2026 (UTC)

Yes, I am OK with that and would appreciate it very much! Thank you! RobinIsadorable (talk) 23:12, 21 February 2026 (UTC)

@Formasit-chijoh forgot to tag you! RobinIsadorable (talk) 21:40, 24 February 2026 (UTC)

@RobinIsadorable Apologies for the late response, I have deleted the invalid articles, please let me know if you still have any worries. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 18:28, 25 February 2026 (UTC)

Thank you so much! RobinIsadorable (talk) 22:10, 26 February 2026 (UTC)

Delete a program?

I tried copying an existing program, but either skipped some steps or didn't realize that I was doing it wrong ... and now I can't edit it or even join it.

Dashboard for wikipedia challenge

I can't seem to access the dashboard to participate in the wikipedia challenge. it constantly responds with theis: Page not found. :-( No such course Wikimedia Nigeria/WikiGap Nigeria Challenge 2026 (March) exists. ~2026-16953-25 (talk) 09:24, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

@~2026-16953-25 Could you provide a link to your program.

Some quick checks:

If you are not the facilitator of the program, ensure you are added to the program. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 11:30, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

I can't access the dashboard to check the participants contributions in the wikipedia Chinemeremprince (talk) 13:06, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

Hello @Chinemeremprince

Could you provide the link to your program so that We could take a look at it. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 17:58, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

here is the link

https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Igbo_Wikimedian_user_group/Health_translation_project/students/overview Chinemeremprince (talk) 13:48, 23 March 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Chinemeremprince: I have checked the link you provided and the page is up and available. I can see that you are the Facilitator with 24 editors enrolled.

Perhaps you meant to send this link: https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Wikimedia_Nigeria/WikiGap_Nigeria_Challenge_2026_(2026)/ WikiGap Nigeria Challenge 2026 which you mentioned earlier? That course is also active, and I see you are already enrolled there. If you still encounter a "Page not found" error, try clearing your cache or using a different browser to ensure it is not a local loading issue. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 16:56, 23 March 2026 (UTC)

The link i provided is for my event, i tried tracking the participants edits, but is not coming up.

what could be the problem? Chinemeremprince (talk) 17:10, 23 March 2026 (UTC)

Hello @Chinemeremprince,

The reason your edits are not appearing is that the Dashboard is not currently configured to track the Igbo Wikipedia (or other specific language) Mainspace. By default, the Dashboard only tracks the wikis explicitly added to the program's settings.

To fix this and ensure all contributions are tracked, please follow these steps:

1. Go to your Program Home Page: Click on the "Edit Details" button (usually in the top-right header area below the stats).
2. Locate the "Tracked Wikis" Input field: Ensure that each wiki you are editing is selected (e.g., ig.wikipedia.org, ha.wikipedia.org, etc.).
3. Locate the "Tracked Namespaces:" Input field: For each selected wiki above, ensure the "Mainspace" (Namespace 0) is selected for the corresponding wiki.
   • Example: Set ig.wikipedia.org - Mainspace to track Igbo Wikipedia articles.
4. Save Changes: Scroll up and click "Save".

Once updated, the Dashboard will automatically run a "backfill" to find and display the missing edits. If you still don't see them after an hour, let me know! Formasit-chijoh (talk) 20:04, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

access to a specific program dashboard

I have created two dashboards with similar names, and someone who worked on the last one is getting locked out from the new one. I tried inviting them from inside of the new one (and they are an approved editor), but no dice. Can anyone help? Lapoesienimpose (talk) 17:08, 25 March 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Lapoesienimpose Can you provide a link to both the programs and the name of the user you are trying to invite. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 20:15, 25 March 2026 (UTC)

dashboard not updating during event

I know there's usually an update lag from past years we've run this event, but it says the next estimated update is "1 month ago", so I'm not sure if there's something else wrong in the back end? https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/RIT_Libraries/Culture_in_Code_(March_26,_2026)/ Sfaregs (talk) 15:18, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for reporting this. It appears the background update process for your specific course has stalled, which is why the 'next update' time is showing in the past.

Thank you for the prompt response. Please I updated some content on the dashboard only to realise that it affected the initial link shared in the complain. Please could it affect the update you initiated. I completed the update on the dashboard before realising that you worked on the issue.

Wikidata statistics per editor

Hi! The Outreach Dashboard produces very accurate statistics for Wikidata: number of items created, number of claims/labels/descriptions/aliases added/changed/removed, number of qualifiers/references added etc. However, while all these data are displayed in the main page of the dashboard, they cannot be associated with the specific users: when I download the Editors stats, I can only see the number of references added, but not the other metrics. Would it be possible to add also the other metrics to the Editors stats, either directly in the present Editors stats or making available a separate file Wikidata editors stats? Thanks in advance, Epìdosis 09:08, 1 April 2026 (UTC) P.S. I forgot the ping: @Formasit-chijoh:. --Epìdosis 20:02, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Epìdosis, thank you for the suggestion! It makes total sense to have those Wikidata-specific metrics broken down by editor for better tracking. I’ll file this as an enhancement request with the development team and link the issue ticket here once it’s created so you can follow the progress. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 15:46, 8 April 2026 (UTC)

@Formasit-chijoh: Thanks, keep me informed if there are updates. I hope this is solved soon, allowing to download statistics that probably are already available somewhere inside the Dashboard should be relatively easy. Epìdosis 07:35, 1 May 2026 (UTC)

@Formasit-chijoh: is there a Github I can monitor for this? I would be very interesting in knowing when it is implemented. Thanks very much, Epìdosis 13:40, 7 May 2026 (UTC)

@Epìdosis You can track the progress here Its is already implemented and under review. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 14:05, 7 May 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Виолетова thank you for reporting this, I will look into it and update you as soon as possible. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 16:00, 8 April 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Виолетова I checked the request on the Activity tab and identified a intermittent error where the system was failing to retrieve certain user data, causing the page to fail. While the page is loading correctly now, I am documenting the specific error for our technical team to prevent it from happening again. Please let me know if it blanks out on you again!

Strange behaviour in measuring merges in Wikidata

Hi! I would like to ask a clarification on how Wikidata merges are measured. I am using https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/UCDMonth/Ukraine's_Cultural_Diplomacy_Month_2026/home which, as of now, says 6.08K items have been edited in April, but there are 0 merges. The tracked items are found through https://petscan.wmcloud.org/?psid=44688906. However, hundreds of items have been merged during April, just a few examples here: d:Q3350322, d:Q106319567, d:Q12132691, d:Q81467844, d:Q12100831. @Formasit-chijoh: Could you check? Thanks, Epìdosis 19:57, 11 April 2026 (UTC)

The problem seems not to be temporary, now 6.18K edited items and still 0 merges. Epìdosis 14:39, 14 April 2026 (UTC)

Hello @Epìdosis Apologies for the late response,

The "0 merges" issue is due to a system backlog. While edits are recorded, the high volume of data has delayed the "deep analysis" needed to identify merges.

Please click this link to trigger a manual update:

https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/UCDMonth/Ukraine's_Cultural_Diplomacy_Month_2026/manual_update

If the merges do not appear within 24 hours, let me know, and I will coordinate a full program refresh with our technical team Formasit-chijoh (talk) 11:05, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

@Formasit-chijoh: Hi, I entered your link but I get the message "Only super administrators may do that." Epìdosis 12:36, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

I will request for a full program update and inform you as soon as it is done. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 12:42, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

As of now there are still only 4 merges, which is not plausible. Epìdosis 15:31, 27 April 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Epìdosis, thank you for the follow-up. I've logged this as a bug and will resolve why merge operations aren't being counted in the dashboard stats. You can monitor the progress here: [here ]. We'll keep this thread updated as well. Apologies for the inconvenience! Formasit-chijoh (talk) 17:03, 27 April 2026 (UTC)

@Formasit-chijoh: Now I see two different specifications, merged to (1) and merged from (288). IMHO 288 is a very plausible number, so I think the issue can be considered as solved. Thanks very much for all your work! Epìdosis 13:39, 7 May 2026 (UTC)

You are welcome @Epìdosis. I am glad we could resolve your issue. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 14:02, 7 May 2026 (UTC)

Issue Accessing Wiki Loves Africa 2026 Program on Outreach Dashboard

Hello Outreach Dashboard technical team, I'm encountering an issue with the following program: https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Wikimedia_R%C3%A9publique_du_Congo/Wiki_Loves_Africa_2026 My dashboard has disappeared, and I can no longer access it. Could you please check and restore my access if possible? Thank you for your quick assistance! Africany (talk) 19:59, 12 April 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Africany thank you for reaching out. I have checked your profile and the programs currently listed there, but 'Wiki Loves Africa 2026' does not appear in the list.

This usually happens if the program was recently renamed or accidentally deleted. I am reporting this to our technical team right now to check our database records and help restore your access. I’ll update you here as soon as I have more information! Formasit-chijoh (talk) 06:59, 13 April 2026 (UTC)

Thank you @Formasit-chijoh for your prompt response and assistance!

Indeed, "Wiki Loves Africa 2026" is a short campaign ending on April 30, so not all contributions may yet appear in the dashboard.

Could you confirm the next steps to officially add it ? I remain available to provide any necessary support.

Thank you immensely for your support ! Africany (talk) 17:28, 13 April 2026 (UTC)

Hello @Africany It appears your program has unfortunately been deleted. Because deleted courses cannot be retrieved from our database, you will need to set up a new program.

If you are the program instructor, please follow these steps to get it back up and running:

1. Recreate the Program: Create a new program using the same name, "Wiki Loves Africa 2026." Since the previous version no longer exists, you won't encounter any naming conflicts.
2. Set the Dates: Use the Course Settings to specify the exact start and end dates
3. Enroll Participants: Add your editors/users to the new program. Once they are enrolled, the dashboard will automatically begin backfilling and tracking their contributions made within your specified timeframe.

The system will automatically scan for edits based on these new parameters, so your data should begin appearing shortly after setup. Please let me know if you need any further assistance! Formasit-chijoh (talk) 03:38, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

Articles manquants sur le dashboard

Bonjour, je suis participant à la campagne dont voici le dashboard : https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Wikimediens_du_B%C3%A9nin_User_Group/Art_et_F%C3%A9minisme_2026_au_B%C3%A9nin_(28_mars_2026_au_31_avril_2026)/articles/edited?

Une partie importante des contributions n'apparaît pas dans le dashboard ( un grand nombre d'articles manquants). Pouvez-vous m'aider à résoudre ce problème ? Merci pour votre aide. Guillaume2001 (talk) 01:21, 23 April 2026 (UTC)

Dashboard not updating?

Hello! The edits for my organization's editathon are not being tracked. The activity tracker seems to be working normally, but the total number of edits that displays at the top of the screen has been stuck at 0 all month. Why might this be? Is there a way to fix this? Thanks! Maritsubaki (talk) 19:44, 23 April 2026 (UTC)

Having the same issue! RobinIsadorable (talk) 20:03, 23 April 2026 (UTC)

Dashboard not updating

Dashboard not updating

My tracking page may not be properly updating with respect to Commons Uploads. Is there a way to get it to check and ensure that it reflects recent changes? Thank you, MMO Tracking (talk) 16:03, 24 April 2026 (UTC)

Wikidata courses with blocked instructor

The following active courses involve Wikidata, but the sole instructor has been blocked on that project since December of last year.

• https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/BileR/Africa_Wiki_Challenge_2026_Cameroun
• https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/WAFTAI/Wiki-N'zu%C3%B1deuh_Translate_(2026-04-18)
• https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/WAFTAI/Wiki-N'zu%C3%B1deuh_Extension
• https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/WAFTAI/Wiki-N'zu%C3%B1deuh_Focus

Not only because of the technical restriction caused by the block, but also because of the competence issues underlying the block, I am concerned that this editor is not able to support instruction and training on this project. In turn, this means that course participants are not receiving accurate guidance. I recommend reviewing whether Wikidata should continue to be included in these courses, and whether additional oversight or changes to course leadership are needed. Thanks, Bovlb (talk) 15:18, 2 May 2026 (UTC)

Also, could we please add something to the dashboard to flag when course instructors are blocked on registered projects? Bovlb (talk) 15:27, 2 May 2026 (UTC)

I reviewed the Wikidata contributions of the 20 editors enrolled in the third course listed above. In 8 cases, I had to issue a notability warning. In 5 cases, I blocked the user for continuing to create non-notable items despite earlier warnings and failure to engage with feedback. 65% of these students required administrative intervention for the same issues for which the instructor is currently blocked. Bovlb (talk) 16:04, 2 May 2026 (UTC)

Hello @Bovlb, thank you for bringing this to our attention. I have reviewed the campaign details and confirmed that the instructor is currently the campaign organizer.

I am reporting this campaign and its associated courses to the Dashboard Administrators for immediate review. We will evaluate the most appropriate course of action, which may include removing Wikidata as a tracked project for these courses (as you suggested) or identifying alternative ways to ensure participants receive accurate guidance.

Additionally, I am investigating how we can better flag blocked instructors on the dashboard to prevent similar issues in the future. I will provide an update here once the administrators have reached a decision on the campaign's status Formasit-chijoh (talk) 07:31, 3 May 2026 (UTC)

@Formasit-chijoh: Thank you for following up. Bovlb (talk) 14:59, 3 May 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Samwalton9 (WMF), I'm pinging you here as recommended by @Sage_(Wiki_Ed) to help determine the appropriate moderation response for this situation.

As noted above, we have a campaign where the sole organizer and instructor is currently blocked on Wikidata for competence issues. This has led to a lack of oversight, resulting in several students being warned for repeating the same disruptive editing patterns.

We need to establish a standard process for these cases. I am proposing that we remove wikidata.org from the 'Tracked Wikis' for these specific programs to prevent further disruption. Please let us know if there are any objections to this or if the WMF has a preferred alternative for handling courses led by blocked facilitators. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 20:52, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

Thanks again.

I don't really understand how this can happen, that an editor is blocked on a project for competence issues and five months later is still acting as an instructor for that project and applying for WMF grants to do so. I think we should have some way to prevent this. Bovlb (talk) 23:06, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

@Formasit-chijoh I'm not really involved in the P&E Dashboard anymore, I'll see if someone else can help with this. Samwalton9 (WMF) (talk) 13:38, 6 May 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for your response, I will be waiting on your feedback. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 19:20, 6 May 2026 (UTC)

Here are some more active courses involving Wikidata where all instructors are blocked on that project:

• https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Wikimedia_user_group_Madagascar/Madagascar_Contribution_Haute_Matsiatra_2026_(2026-03-17)
• https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Wikimedia_user_group_Madagascar/Madagascar_Contribution_2026
• https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Global_Open_Initiative/Wiki_Clubs_Project_2026

Bovlb (talk) 02:58, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

Striking one of these courses because one of the two instructors has been unblocked. Bovlb (talk) 14:19, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

Edits not appearing on dashboard

J’ai modifié un article et sur le tableau de bord il n’y a rien… ~2026-27049-16 (talk) 15:47, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

Je pense que vous devrez fournir davantage de détails, tels que le cours spécifique ainsi que le nom d'utilisateur ou la modification concernée. Par ailleurs, je ne pense pas que le tableau de bord enregistre les modifications effectuées par des utilisateurs non inscrits. Bovlb (talk) 16:05, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

Bonjour ! Il y a actuellement un léger délai d'affichage sur le tableau de bord pour les cours de longue durée. Le système peut mettre un peu de temps à se synchroniser, mais vous devriez voir vos modifications apparaître très bientôt. En attendant, pourriez-vous me transmettre le lien vers la page de votre cours pour que je puisse vérifier ?

Pourriez-vous également vous connecter à votre compte Wikipédia avant de répondre afin que je puisse plus facilement identifier votre compte? Formasit-chijoh (talk) 17:30, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

My edits are not receiving the coordinate-me-2026 tag even after rejoining the Senegal campaign and adding new coordinates. All edits are only tagged ‘Wikidata user interface’. Please check whether my account is properly registered in the campaign backend. Ds2320 (talk) 21:23, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Ds2320 Could you provide a link to your program Formasit-chijoh (talk) 21:34, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Gower Thank you for reporting. There is a recent delay in processing of statistics and so your statistics must be queued and still processing this might take a few days while the issue is being resolved. I will update you on the status as soon as it is complete. Thank you. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 02:10, 14 May 2026 (UTC)

"Articles created" number going down

Hi there - hoping someone can help! We have a long-running group who've been editing for around 4 years, and who've used the same dashboard throughout that time. Recently they've noticed that the "Articles created" number has gone down - it should be well above what it's registering currently. We wondered if perhaps it's because it's been running for so long, and that those "new" articles are no longer being counted as new, but unsure! I asked in the Telegram and was advised to post here - any help at all would be appreciated. Dashboard in question is here. Sara Thomas (WMUK) (talk) 16:35, 14 May 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Sara Thomas (WMUK) Did you just notice this recently or it has been going down for awhile. The link you provided doesn't work could you check it again. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 16:42, 14 May 2026 (UTC)

Lists of training courses

I'm finding the lists of training courses less than optimal. There is a list at https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/training which shows every course available, but doesn't indicate which I have already done (or which might have been updated and I might need to redo). There is also a list at https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/users/Stuartyeates which lists the courses I have completed in an apparently random order and doesn't indicate whether I've done the following course. There is apparently no way to find a useful course to do next. Also, only one out of six of my 'Recent Uploads' seems to actually display. Stuartyeates (talk) 00:59, 18 May 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Stuartyeates thank you for reporting this. It is a matter of intuitively identifying where to go to see the details of your training progress, and I agree that the system needs some improvement to make this clearer.

For each training module here, if you click the green banner with the arrow on a module you have started, you will see your progress marked as completed for those you are done with, or as a percentage for those you are currently taking.

Regarding the list of courses here: these represent all the courses you have participated in (ordered from most recent), either as an editor or as a facilitator. If a course appears on this list, it means you enrolled in it, participated in it, or were added to it by someone else.

Also, with respect to the Recent Uploads issue, there has been a delay in processing your data because some large courses are taking a long time to complete. This issue is currently being looked into, and you should see your uploads very soon.

Please let me know if you have any further concerns or require any additional assistance. Formasit-chijoh (talk) 05:41, 19 May 2026 (UTC)
