Ack! Didn't notice you CC'd the list. o/ hi huggle folks!
Re. API no worries. Definitely nice-to-have for your work. I'll be hacking on a general solution in the meantime. I'll swing by with a spec once I have one worked out to make sure that, once we get there, you'll be able to make use of it in Huggle if it makes sense.

Yes, that would be nice to have thing.
Right now there is something I call HAN (huggle antivandalism network) which is a very simple IRC based service that huggle clients and other software can use to communicate with each other - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Huggle/HAN
this is what we use now to propagate scores that are computed by ClueBot to all huggle clients and of course we use it to make it possible for huggle clients communicate with each other :) (there is even a chat window that can be used by huggle users to talk to each other within a project scope)

Thanks Petr,
I'll post to the huggle list next time. For an example score from
STiki's
API, see
http://armstrong.cis.upenn.edu/stiki_api.php?style=score&rid=346523549
For more info, see the readme: http://armstrong.cis.upenn.edu/stiki_api_readme.txt
I'll be writing up a proposal for a general edit scoring service API. It would be nice if that could include a "Huggle" score along side others.
I'll
be digging through your code to see what it would take to extract such a score for a common API.

Hi,
It's always a better idea to post to huggle list instead of me only. For example, now I was on vacation for few weeks and couldn't answer you :-)
Yes, it is possible to USE IT, but right now huggle support for non english wikis which are maintained either by some people who don't understand huggle or people who do understand huggle but not the language, isn't very good, so even scoring isn't very good. The very algorithm is pretty simple, you can see it at
https://github.com/huggle/huggle3-qt-lx/blob/master/huggle/wikiedit.cpp#L92
however, resulting score isn't shared in any way. Only possible way to accomplish this would be to run a huggle based bot that would send the scores somewhere. This is actually possible (I am working on head less huggle that could run as a system service instead of GUI) but it's not up yet...
In addition I don't understand how STiki shares the scores? How is
that?

Hi Petr,
I'm the maintainer of Snuggle[1]. Snuggle uses vandalism scores from STiki[2] on enwiki to generate desirability scores for newcomers.
I'd
like to extend Snuggle to non-English wikis, but there's no STiki outside enwiki. I noticed that Huggle exists outside enwiki *and* it performs a
triage
of edits by the probability that they are vandalism.
Is there a way that I could make use of Huggle's scoring system in Snuggle?
