Owner Dashboard Metrics

Question: I see on my project owner summary dashboard that there are 10,392 page edits plus a couple hundred other deeds (indexed, translated, etc.). If I download the csv from the Mailing List Export, though, and sum the deed counts there, I get a significantly higher number: 26650. Is the discrepancy here because the csv is including all deeds from a user, as defined in the DeedType class? That is, adding notes, marking as blank, etc., are included in the csv export?

Answer: The dashboard doesn’t show all the deeds, but the collaborator mailing list export does.

A longer, more analytical explanation:

I added up all of the deed counts in the mailing list export spreadsheet and got 27085.I added up each category in your dashboard (pages transcribed, edited, translated, corrected; plus notes created) and got 16403.  (Note:  Subjects created is not a deed!)That’s a discrepancy of 10683.  
We then pulled all the deeds for your collections, including the ones that aren’t in the dashboard, we show the same discrepancies:
