Ryan PM, I think most of the features you're talking about are improvements we'll be making to wiki stats in the future, that's really what Sponsership Dashboard (an internal tool for now) is about. The Admin Dashboard is an external feature that isn't meant to revolve around stats, it's meant to house all of the admin tools available on Wikia in one place for better organization, and make it easier for admins to find what they need. Though both called "dashboard" the two have really different goals. :)

That said, your requests for better metrics and stats on wikis are good ones, and that's something we definitely want to improve.
