== Adding number of affected content pages to data model guidelines?  ==

Since there are many events (edit-a-thons, workshops, contests) that also have affected content pages, would it make sense to add that property to the data model for events? I added it to one of the events by WMNL (see [[Item:Q24386|Q24386]]), is that the right way to go about it?

:Hello [[User:MichellevL (WMNL)|Michelle]]. Glad to see you've started editing!!

:How to model the number of affected content pages is described on [[Modelling/Content uploads]] and also on [[Modelling/Content uploads/Resource types|../Resource types]]. As for {{Q|Q24386}} you done it almost right. We use {{Q|22134}} as qualifier instead of {{Q|90}}.

:The issue of updating the data model for events is something we will consider. Happy editing! -- [[User:Andreas Kettelhoit (WMSE)|Andreas Kettelhoit (WMSE)]] ([[User talk:Andreas Kettelhoit (WMSE)|talk]]) 08:56, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
:: Hi [[User:Andreas Kettelhoit (WMSE)|Andreas]] thanks for the quick reply and the feedback! I have changed {{Q|90}} to {{Q|22134}}. Also thank you for considering to update the data model for events. If it helps I can elaborate a bit more on the background of my request (there might be another/better solution):I am hoping/planning to start using metabase for metrics registration for our chapter (instead of our excel file :), and one of our metrics is affected content pages (not solely for content donations). I can imagine this is the case for more affiliates intending to start using metabase. [[User:MichellevL (WMNL)|MichellevL (WMNL)]] ([[User talk:MichellevL (WMNL)|talk]]) 09:06, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
:::We (WMSE) have been modelling affected content pages longer than we've been modelling content donations (batch uploads), but the data model (I call it "data modelling tables") hasn't really kept up.
:::Here three examples of how we model affected content pages: The edit-a-thon {{Q|24307}}, the small week long competition {{Q|24348}} and the batch upload {{Q|23399}}. Note that the latter contains a few properties that the others lack. More happy editing 💻 -- [[User:Andreas Kettelhoit (WMSE)|Andreas Kettelhoit (WMSE)]] ([[User talk:Andreas Kettelhoit (WMSE)|talk]]) 10:39, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
