[Wiki Loves Monuments] [Wlm-global-org] Fwd: Uploader stats

[Lodewijk]

Thanks a lot Erik! Just two remarks:

When looking only at WLM2012, that the WLM2011 participants were
overrepresented. That means... these people returned! That says a lot about
how they enjoyed the competition.

One reason for differences in stats (peaks) might be people who's
submissions got deleted. Would it be possible that deleted uploads are also
counted in the red line Erik? (Those wouldn't be valid submissions
according to Platonides' definition).

Thanks again, and I'm looking forward to more retention stats :)
