 ====== Template for Metric ====== ====== Template for Metric ======
-The following is a draft for the template that all '​Metric Detail'​ pages can follow. +Page permanently moved to  
- +https://github.com/chaoss/metrics/blob/master/activity-metrics/metric-template.md
-The template is inspired by the __[[https://istheory.byu.edu/wiki/Signaling|IS Theories Wiki]]__. +
- +
-===== Instructions ===== +
- +
-To create a new '​Metric Detail'​ page follow these steps: +
- +
-  - In the __[[oss-health-metrics:​metrics|metrics list]]__, convert the name of a metric into a link +
-    - The link looks like this: ''​%%__[[oss-health-metrics:​metrics:​name-of-metric|Name of Metric]]__%%''​. +
-    - **Important:​** The namespace ''​oss-health-metrics:​metrics:''​ places the page in the right location of the wiki and has to be there.  +
-    - Before the verticle bar, the //Name of Metric// should be lower case and spaces replaced by hyphens. +
-  - Copy the text below the horizontal bar into the new wiki page. +
-  - Remove explanations in all sections and leave sections empty if no information is available at the moment. +
-    - **Important:​** Do not delete a section heading because we want all '​Metric Detail'​ pages to be structured the same. +
-   +
- +

- +
-====== {Name of Metric} ====== +
- +
-===== 1. Description ===== +

-Include a sample visualization (screenshot) of the metric from any implementation. +
- +
-===== 3. Use Cases ===== +
-Provide examples of how the metric might inform different stakeholders through use cases. +
- +

- +
-===== 5. Known Implementations ===== +
