==Next Steps (Aug 24)==
*(Sneha) Add list of variables to build to the wiki
*(Salt) Verify whether the wiki dumps are solid
*(Nate) Generate 'contributor experience' variables for every edit in the dataset
*(Nate) Generate bot and admin data for the larger wiki dataset

==Next Steps (Aug 15)==
*(Salt) Edit build wikilist code to map filenames with message wall transition dates
*(Sneha) Continue preliminary analysis with 25 wikis 
*(Nate) Continue investigating what dumps we can get from wikiteam

==Next Steps (Aug 1)==
*(Salt) Make file with mapping between urls and the newly scraped dumps. 
*(Nate with Mako's help) Figure out what's going on in the wiki mapping code
*(Sneha) Plan for visit in September
*(Sneha) Continue preliminary analysis with 25 wikis 

== Retreat Tasks == 
* Document and organize the git repository.
* Data exploration / preliminary analysis.

== Next Steps (July 18) == 
* (Salt with Nate's help) Add new dumps to wikilist
* (Nate) Update wikiteam mapping.
* (Sneha) (Using wikiq data) Check that dumps, even if valid xml, have message wall data.
* (Sneha) create list of subsetting characteristics (inclusion criteria for Wikis) for study.
* (Sneha) create exploratory plots for a larger set of wikis of different sizes.
* (Sneha) Request new dumps for missing wikis. 

== Next Steps (July 11) ==
* (Sneha) (Using wikiq data) Check that dumps, even if valid xml, have message wall data.
* (Sneha) create list of subsetting characteristics (inclusion criteria for Wikis) for study.
* (Sneha) create exploratory plots for a larger set of wikis of different sizes.
* (Sneha) Request new dumps for missing wikis. 
* (Salt) Download wikis available on Special:statistics. '''Done'''
* (Nate) Scrape admin and bot edits using a script from Mako. '''Done'''

== Next Steps (June 27th) == 
* (Sneha) (Using wikiq data) Check that dumps, even if valid xml, have message wall data.
* (Sneha) Take a look namespaces 1200-1202 to understand what they mean. '''Done'''
* (Sneha) create list of subsetting characteristics (inclusion criteria for Wikis) for study.
* (Sneha) create exploratory plots for a larger set of wikis of different sizes.
* (Salt) Download wikis available on Special:statistics.
* (Salt) Request new dumps for missing wikis. 
* (Nate) Scrape admin and bot edits using a script from Mako.
* (Nate) Finish identifying wikiteam mapping '''Done'''.

==Next Steps (June 20th)==
* (Nate) Improve wiki list by identifying wikis that turn off the feature without turning on first (Done)
* (Nate) Get <strike>muppet wiki</strike> Dr. Horrible Wiki edit weeks for Sneha (Done)
* (Nate) Do brute force mapping using revision ids and and hashing texts (Done)
* (Sneha) Will play with Dr. Horrible data (Done)
* (Sneha) create list of subsetting characteristics for study 

==Next Steps (June 13th)==

* Build a new dataset of dumps of the ~4800 wikis (Salt/Nate) (May take more than a week to generate all the new dumps)
 
* Build a msgwall version of the build_edit_weeks file from the anon_edits paper (Nate)

* Do analysis of alt history wiki and update (Sneha)

* Create list of criteria to identify wikis we want to use in this study (Sneha)

== Next Steps (June 6th)== 

* Identify list of Wikis we will analyze from the tsv file.  

* Attempt to obtain a good dump for each of these wikis. See [[CommunityData:Wikia Dumps]] for information. 

** This may depend on mapping between the urls in the tsv file and the dumps. Consider using HTTP redirects from the url under <siteinfo>.   
 
* Modify Wikiq to give an error message if the closing </mediawiki> tag is missing. 

* Sneha to take a look althistory data from Nate.  

* Nate will write a version of build_edit_weeks for the message wall project

* Check back next meeting Tuesday (June 13th)

-==Next Steps (Dec 5)==
-===Data collection & analysis===
-*Get missing wikis:
-** Salt will use wikiList.3.csv to find which wikis we don't have.
-** Salt will email Mako the list, and he will ask the Spaniards whether they have them
