User:Pelagic/Incubator/Classifying Teahouse/1123
This is an experiment with counting how many questions of different types are asked at the Wikipedia Teahouse, using Archive 1123. I'll see how it goes editing this on-wiki, but may have to switch to Excel for analysis or easier data entry.
A more elegant solution would be if there were some way to tag individual sections and then use a script to calculate totals for each archive.
As a first pass, I am using some keywords or phrases, then will look at other ways of grouping.
Possible abbreviations: nq = no question, cnp = create new page/article, htu = hard to understand, nt = no section title (added later by hosts), afc-no = draft rejected or declined (unspecified which) at AFC, chun = change user name, udel = delete user, svp = confusion over save versus publish (yes this comes up often enough to need its own category!), rff = request for feedback, ot = off-topic, ...
