Fwd: [Design] Design in the Era of the Algorithm
by Pine W 17 Jun '17

17 Jun '17

Perhaps of interest. Pine ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Chris Koerner <ckoerner(a)wikimedia.org> Date: Fri, Jun 16, 2017 at 8:31 AM Subject: [Design] Design in the Era of the Algorithm To: design(a)lists.wikimedia.org Josh Clark on design principles for addressing flaws in machine learning. (via waxy.org)\ "The answer machines have an overconfidence problem. It’s not only a data-science problem that the algorithm returns bad conclusions. It’s a problem of presentation: the interface suggests that there’s one true answer, offering it up with a confidence that is unjustified. So this is a design problem, too. The presentation fails to set appropriate expectations or context, and instead presents a bad answer with matter-of-fact assurance. As we learn to present machine-originated content, we face a very hard question: how might we add some productive humility to these interfaces to temper their overconfidence? I have ideas." https://bigmedium.com/speaking/design-in-the-era-of-the-algorithm.html Yours, Chris Koerner Community Liaison - Discovery Wikimedia Foundation _______________________________________________ Design mailing list Design(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/design

ORES operating at slightly reduced capacity
by Aaron Halfaker 12 Jun '17

12 Jun '17

One of our worker nodes in CODFW went down (scb2005). See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T167638 for details. This should not affect the service except that we'll have a slightly reduced capacity to handle high request rates. Let us know if you see any issues with ORES. https://ores.wikimedia.org https://mediawiki.org/wiki/ORES -Aaron

Questions about the details of the ORES quality models
by Pierce Edmiston 09 Jun '17

09 Jun '17

Hello, I'm wondering how to find out the details of edit and article quality models, specifically the *reverted* and *damaging* edit quality models, and the *wp10* article quality model. I'm wondering what algorithm is being used and what features are being trained on. I believe the *wp10* model may have originated with Warncke-Wang, Cosley, & Riedl (2013) Tell me more: An actionable quality model for Wikipedia, in which case I can figure out the model specification and features from the paper. But I'm not sure if the details of the edit quality models have been similarly summarized in any papers or in any online documentation. Thanks for your help! Pierce

Scoring Platform Team update
by Aaron Halfaker 04 Jun '17

04 Jun '17

Hey folks, I'll be starting to post updates here on our new blog[1], but if you'd prefer to be notified via the mailing lists we used to post to, that's OK. I'll make sure that the highlights and the link to these posts gets pushed there too. We had a big presence at the Wikimedia Hackathon 2017 in Vienna. We kicked off a lot of new language focused collaborations (Greek, Tamil, Bengali) and we deployed a new Item Quality model for Wikidata. French and Finnish Wikipedias now have advance edit quality prediction support! ORES is available through api.php again via rvprop=orescores and rcprop=oresscores. Wiki labels now has a new stats reporting interface. Check out https://labels.wmflabs.org/stats We had a major hiccup when failing over to CODFW, but we worked it out and ORES is very happy again. See more details on our new blog: "Score all the things" https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/phame/blog/view/8/ -Aaron Principal Research Scientist @ WMF Head of the Scoring Platform team
