Barkin Simsek:
Hi everyone,
I created a wiki page [1] for "describing" the graphs that will be used to visualize the CAPTCHA Monitor dataset [2]. There are already a few graphs on the dashboard [3] and they will be replaced with the new ones described on the wiki page.
Thanks for that wiki page. That's been really helpful. One thing I kept wondering while reading through the different graph descriptions with the default graph style in mind: You said:
"X-axis: The dates of the last 30*24 consensuses (last 30 days), each tick representing a single consensus"
While the graphs you describe read:
3. Merge the graphs created for each consensus
So, what's the tick shown per day then? One consensus somehow picked or data for all consensuses for that day? Or...?
I'm interested in hearing your feedback on the graph descriptions [1] and suggestions for adding new graphs. I want to understand if the graphs I proposed make sense and useful for anyone. The descriptions have a similar style to the one used in the metrics website's "Reproducible Metrics" page [4].
How do you plan to show those graphs on the dashboard? Are they all shown in some order? Grouped by sections (maybe along those on the wiki)? Grouped by "importance"? I suspect there is a tension between just showing them all and the most usefulness of the dashboard and it might be worth spending some though on that (if you did not have already). Or maybe there are even guidelines in the literature somewhere I am not aware of.
Somewhat related to that, I think we can try reducing the number of graphs, at least those which are greatly related. E.g. I was at first confused seeing "Weighted CAPTCHA rate by exit relay age" and "Weighted CAPTCHA rate by exit relay location" twice until I realized the different sections they showed up. One thing that could be useful here is having a switch/buttons next to the graph giving the user the option to see "by exit relay age" for all CAPTCHAs, or for Cloudflare ones, or for Akamai ones or for... depending on the switch/button the users clicked on. The graph would update accordingly once clicked, showing the user choice. The default could be for all CAPTCHAs or essentially whatever we think is more important for us. That way you have related things grouped together AND you have less graphs shown per default on the dashboard, too, which might help not getting confused.

Thank you in advance!
