User:Sphilbrick/Admin stats one year limited

I did a report, creating a list of all admin stats for a one year period ending May of this year using this tool. That raw table is here, with one adjustment — I added a column called "status" to keep track of editors who are administrators and those who have recently resigned.

I then created an excerpt of that table and placed it on this page.

I removed the user groups column and all individual actions other than total. I also removed anyone who was not an administrator (or recently resigned) to exclude bots, stewards and some other categories.

The table is sorted first by status and then by total (I tried to make it sortable which isn't working at the moment — a look into that later)

This table should help answer two questions:


 * 1) How many active admins do we have?
 * 2) How much are we losing through recent resignations?

Before looking at the numbers, an important caveat — admin actions is not a perfect measure of an admin's contribution to this project as an admin. Many admins are active at many notice boards without doing an admin action. That said, at least as a crude measure, it's relatively easy to calculate, so worth doing.

Observations:


 * There are 731 editors (current or recent admins) with one or more admin actions in the one year.
 * This number overstates the number of active administrators — 115, including Jimbo, had only 1 or 2 in last year
 * As a very low bar, there are 574 with five or more actions in the year
 * As a more reasonable bar, there are 411 with 24 or more in the year (i.e. averaging two a month)
 * As a higher bar, there are 237 with 240 or more in the year (i.e. averaging 20 a month)
 * The 22 resigned admins were responsible for 19423 admin actions or 2.4% of the total
