DBE suggestion outcomes

Date: 22 Jun 2023 [unknown]
Location: [unknown]

On about 21 June 2023, in response to comments on a G2G question, Aleš Trtnik generously provided statistics on outcomes of DBE suggestions, broken down according to the status assigned: commented, corrected, false, etc.

The following table shows the outcomes by suggestion group. It can be sorted in ascending or descending order on any column by clicking the icons in the column headings. Initially the table is sorted in descending order of count of occurrences of suggestions in the group (the counts are zero-padded to allow this).

Setting aside the obsolete Deleted group, the Unique Names group has the highest proportion of False statuses, followed by WikiData, Gender, and Name. The group which has received the least proportion of processing (Not Touched) is Links: this may be because scanning of links has restarted recently.

The second table shows the results by individual suggestion. Suggestions in the Deleted group and the optional Profile Completeness group have been omitted, as have suggestions with fewer than 1,000 occurrences. You can click on a suggestion code number to see a sample (not necessarily representative) of 200 active or hidden occurrences.
