Wikimedian Demographics/Making Interpretations DynamicPageList

We're not sure yet how to interpret the data over the long term, but users can create interpretations using DynamicPageList, which is a MediaWiki feature available on Wikiversity.

For example, to compare how many participants that Primarily edit Wikiversity use IRC regularly vs. those who don't use IRC regularly, you would use the following script:

Users who primarily edit on Wikiversity who use IRC regularly:  category=WMDGS/Primarily contributes to Wikiversity category=WMDGS/Regularly uses IRC order=descending ordermethod=lastedit 

Users who primarily edit on Wikiversity who do not use IRC regularly:  category=WMDGS/Primarily contributes to Wikiversity notcategory=WMDGS/Regularly uses IRC order=descending ordermethod=lastedit 

Which makes the following text appear on the page:

Users who primarily edit on Wikiversity who use IRC regularly:  category=WMDGS/Primarily contributes to Wikiversity category=WMDGS/Regularly uses IRC order=descending ordermethod=lastedit 

Users who primarily edit on Wikiversity who do not use IRC regularly:  category=WMDGS/Primarily contributes to Wikiversity notcategory=WMDGS/Regularly uses IRC order=descending ordermethod=lastedit 

You can compare any categories in this manner, using "category=" to get all pages in a category, or "notcategory=" to exclude all pages in a category. Copy and paste the script above and try it out on your interpretation page by changing the categories!
