Data Mining For Deletion Vs User Stats
How easy would it be to produce a data set consisting of the age of accounts that have created pages that have been deleted via CfDs and Afds? The data would be number of pages per new account age time bands (it would mean getting access to the history of deleted pages). I want to see if there is a case for lengthening the stand down period of new page creation for new user accounts. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 18:47, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
- The best way to do that would be to run a query on the database, so any Toolserver user should be able to do that for you. Legoktm (talk) 19:44, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

Famous quotes containing the words data, mining and/or user:
“This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“For every nineteenth-century middle-class family that protected its wife and child within the family circle, there was an Irish or a German girl scrubbing floors in that home, a Welsh boy mining coal to keep the home-baked goodies warm, a black girl doing the family laundry, a black mother and child picking cotton to be made into clothes for the family, and a Jewish or an Italian daughter in a sweatshop making “ladies” dresses or artificial flowers for the family to purchase.”
—Stephanie Coontz (20th century)
“A worker may be the hammer’s master, but the hammer still prevails. A tool knows exactly how it is meant to be handled, while the user of the tool can only have an approximate idea.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
