Description Tom Morris 2012-09-15 15:16:24 UTC
Currently, page view data is made available on dumps.wikimedia.org and often accessed via stats.grok.se. This covers image description pages (e.g. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Hurricane_Isabel_from_ISS.jpg ) but does not cover hotlinked images, or use of images through InstantCommons.

It would be useful for GLAM instiutions and other donors of large collections of images to be able to record the number of views of images across both on Wikimedia projects and other websites. Just as page view stats for articles are used as a metric for the success of GLAM projects, image view data would be useful as a metric for the success of file donation partnerships. The UI on Commons encourages third-party sites to use Wikimedia as a hotlinked file repository. This would also help inform debates in the Commons and Wikimedia community as to the role of third-party reusers and hotlinking etc.

[mass-moving wikistats reports from Wikimedia→Statistics to Analytics→Wikistats to have stats issues under one Bugzilla product (see bug 42088) - sorry for the bugspam!]
