Based on the upcoming release of sister project snippets (T162276) in the search results pages, we'll want to track this information on the Search dashboard.
This can be added in as part of the engagement metrics - to show which projects are clicked on vs shown.
This will also require a revisiting of our earlier event logging code (T149806) to be sure it's still in place and is still what we want to capture.

[mediawiki/extensions/WikimediaEvents@master] Update results tracking on SERPs
Waiting for the sister project snippets to go live, hopefully the week of June 5, 2017
Update: apparently the feature will go live on the train next week. Once it's live, I'll check to see if we're collecting the data we expect to be collecting.
This feature is now live in production on all wikis, please activate the dashboard! :)
Unfortunately the UI code changed in a way to invalidated my event logging patch :( the SERP code will need to be patched to include data that had been removed.

While we're waiting for event logging stuff to be sorted, I'm going to add actual traffic (which uses webrequest data) as a thing.

@debt: let me know if there's anything you want different while we're still in the development stage or if https://discovery-beta.wmflabs.org/metrics/#sister_search_traffic is good for production :)
@mpopov - can you update for these:
"Sister (cross-wiki) search is a feature that adds results from other projects to a sidebar on the search engine results page (SERP). For example: if there are additional results found, users are shown images from Wikimedia Commons, definitions from Wiktionary, and results from works on Wikisource."
to
"Sister project (cross-wiki) snippets is a feature that adds search results from sister projects of Wikipedia to a sidebar on the search engine results page (SERP). If a query results in matches from the sister projects, users will be shown snippets from Wiktionary, Wikisource, Wikiquote and/or other projects."
Note: instead of radio buttons, can the selections for the display in the graph be checkboxes so the user can combine certain data sets?
Thanks!

@debt: latest version up on beta https://discovery-beta.wmflabs.org/metrics/#sister_search_traffic :)
@debt: so…are we going ahead with the idea to add another language category for languages that already have a sister project search sidebar (e.g. French)?
Do you have the list of languages that already have sister search in addition to ours?
Hi @mpopov - here's the list of wikis that have their own sidebar treatment of sister projects that we'll need to break out to be sure that we're not counting clicks into them as part of our sister projects:

It looks like we've done enough for determining the engagement of the sister project snippets at this time, so closing this ticket.
