I will aim to provide this report on a weekly basis along with a monthly summary in the final week of each month. This will allow contributors and 'employees' of utopian.io to keep in touch with how the platform is progressing with regards to approval percentages and number of Contribution types being submitted.
Assumptions
Currently, there is no indicator for 'approved' or 'rejected' contributions to utopian.io on the Steem Blockchain.
In this report, 'Approved' contributions have been voted on by @utopian-io.
'Rejected' contributions have not received a vote from @utopian-io.
1. Contributions Summary
For the second week of December 2017 - 15th - 21st inclusive, the SteemSQL DataBase holds a total of 2775 potential contributions to utopian-io. This is a huge increase on the previous weeks' total which was 1715.
1876 of these contributions have been approved, this is almost 800 more more than the first week of December.
Despite this huge increase in contributions, the approval percentage is 68% as it was last week.
The Contributions offered can be any one of the following types:
This weeks data, split into Contribution types is shown in the pie chart below:
2 Contributions by Type
In this section we take a look a few of the individual contribution types of interest, present them using a pie chart.
A full list of contribution types is listed further below with associated figures and analysis.
Analysis - Approvals / Rejections
An average of just under 5 Analysis contributions a day for the third week in December totaling 32. This is 1 more than the previous week but their has been a fall in the approval percentage from 87% to 81%.
Development- Approvals / Rejections
Another excellent week for the Development category with 90% of all contributions approved.
This is an increase of 11% on the previous week with 24 more contributions submitted. Considering the increase in submissions, an 11% rise in approvals is very impressive.
Tutorials - Approvals / Rejections
This week, 632 contributions were made to Tutorials category, 277 more than the previous week. A huge rise in the number of contributions for this category, and an improvement of 13% on the approval rate from the previous week.
All contribution types
The following table shows all types and totals of contributions submitted, with their approval % in the end column. Development and Analysis look to be the stand-out contribution categories of the past week, with approval percentages equal to or better than 3 out of every 4 submissions.
Not a great week for contributors submitting 'Documentation', 'Blog', and' Copywriting' with none of the these categories reaching an approval percentage over 50%.
The rise in 'Translation' submissions has been explosive, and it looks like this category will be the first to top 1000 contributions in a week. When you consider that one month ago in week 3 of November, their were just over 1000 contributions across all categories, this number is huge.
3. Summary Analysis
As the weeks' pass and the data collected expands, it is possible to learn more about the developing trends in the utopian-io ecosystem.
We can already see that the number of contributions is rising impressively.
| . | NOV WK 1 | NOV WK 2 | NOV WK 3 | NOV WK 4 (10 day) | DEC WK 1 | DEC WK 2 | DEC WK 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total | 360 | 655 | 1046 | 1851 | 1356 | 1715 | 2775 |
| Approved | 238 | 494 | 744 | 1067 | 843 | 1078 | 1876 |
A record week for approved contributions!
The total of approved contributions reached 2543 for the month of November. And last week, I suggested that we may reach 4000 approved contributions for the month December. Looking at the data for the first three weeks of December, I suggest that we are going easily break 4000 approved submissions for the whole month.
We have an almost 80% rise in the number of approved contributions than the previous week, an percentage increase not seen since the beginning of November. This is a remarkable increase at this stage of the project, and the moderators must be working overtime to push all these submissions through.
Previously I focused on the 'Bug-hunting' approval % since the beginning of the project, as it had fallen week on week. However, this week their has been a welcome rise in the submission success rate - up 8% from the previous week.
Summary
I find it difficult to believe that the number of submissions, and approved submissions can continue increasing at this rate. This is going to require a much larger team of moderators, particularly those skilled in languages.
Other categories, such as 'Analysis' have found a level of contributions each week and this looks likely to be the case in the short term as we go forward.
Congratulations to all involved in another record breaking week at utopian-io.

The data is sourced from SteemSQL - A publicly available SQL database with all the blockchain data held within (Data is normally 1/2 hours delayed from live)
The SQL queries to extra to the data have been produced in both SQL Server Personal Edition and LINQPAD 5.
An example of the Cursor used to extract the data for further processing is in this contribution
The charts used to present the data were produced using MS Excel.
This data was compiled on the 24th December 2017 at 9:00 am CET
I am part of a Steemit Business Intelligence community. We all post under the tag #bisteemit. If you have analysis you would like to be carried out on utopian-io/Steem data, please do contact me or any of the #bisteemit team and we will do our best to help you.
Thanks

Approved.
thank you for your contribution and for your work @abh12345 we still miss the visibility category in this analysis i don t know why!!?
and for the increased number of accepted contribution i think there is two possibilities
1- we have new users thanks to the efforts made to promote utopian.
2- some of the new moderators gone wild lol
You can contact us on Discord.

Thank you!
Visibility is 'Social' in the database - a late change of name perhaps?!
Merry Christmas!
I expect analysis will get tougher as time passes, since there are fewer new analyses to carry out.
We'll need to start hunting for data on other open source projects.
For sure.
There's always one-off pieces that can be produced, and i'm always in two minds regarding how valuable a running weekly assessment is when compared to these. I see value in both.
Some of the other categories have gone ballistic with regards to contributions, and I'm worried about the time it takes to review, and the quality being submitted. In the meantime, rock on Utopian!
That 1% contribution is it analysis or graphics? Hard to decipher the pie chart colour of the two. This analysis looks like a lot of work. Thanks for all the graphics as it makes it easier to comprehend data.
That would be analysis as we have 10 times as many graphical contributions this week:
And yes, this piece takes a couple of hours. And that's excluding the day and a half it took to build the queries/database to make the data adjustments!
True! A 5 to 10 minute of reading took hours to compose and generate the data. The one I'm doing is already on it's fourth day. Lol.
Never underestimate the time involved with this kind of deal!
Looking forward to your next analysis very much!
@abh12345, thank you very much. I tried editing a code that someone wrote. It took me two days. That was a simple matlab program :)
Sounds about right! There are no shortcuts in programming!
thanks for upvote
Hi @abh12345, I noticed different posts using utopian-io category. However, I've zero understanding of the concept so far. I'll read about it in detail to understand how can I be part of it. Do you have a detailed guide available in this regard?
Steem On!
hi @ugetfunded
I would visit the site: https://utopian.io/ - Login with your Steemit credentials
There you will find the 'contribution' categories and information about what is accepted.
The key is that the contribution must be open source related. Steem Steemit Busy Utopian Wordpress and the list goes on.
Steem on!
Hi @ abh12345, Why am I supposed to provide Steemit credentials to a third party? Can I register there separately?
No you cannot.
The authentication is via Steemconnect - trusted throughout the community.
I was about to make the same question, but now is clear to me.
Finally reading about Utopian.io project (I had that pending task). Looks like a good way to contribute and help grow the steem ecosystem.
Enrolling it!
Good luck @fernando26!
Thank you!
Just signed in... It looks amazing!
I'm also following you :)
Look forward to make some contributions to the Utopian project.
Great stuff @abh12345! Thanks for sharing!!!! :)
And thanks for commenting!
There is not a big difference in total and approved contributions. Well Good Luck for those whose contributions are accepted.
Good luck to them and you this Christmas, thanks for your comments :)
Good luck to you too :)
Gorgeous statistics. You have done a tremendous job analyzing these indicators. Together we make Steem the best.
Good luck to you and good.
Thank you @cranium. Wishing you an excellent Christmas.
Thank you, and it's great you to celebrate it!
Great analysis. Anyone can easily understand from this. Thank you for posting @abh12345
I expect analysis will get tougher as time passes, since there are fewer new analyses to carry out.
