Dear group,
We are preparing our bias detection <http://net.wanderingliquen.com/> tool
to help us to track content bias about women that can be edited during this
month, to know how the tool works, you can watch this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mgYvTuUphE
We are inviting groups working on events and edit-a-thones to let us know
which categories will be working on in order to upload those categories as
new maps in the app (For example, Wikimujeres is working on an event to
edit content related to women in science and our suggestion is to work with
the category "scientists", if the category is too big, for example,
"science", the app may take too long to render the map being a major
usability set back)
We will release weekly reports listing the problematic pages per category
indicating which bias has been detected in each page, so any volunteer can
pick up the lead and and review+improve any of the listed pages.
The idea is that this weekly reports will go on for the whole month as kind
of an online support for the women's day events
I am aware that these days are really busy, but If you want to let me know
which categories would you want to be uploaded for reviewing I will highly
appreciated!
Best,
Marta
