So what's happening with the link recommendation system? Is that
rolled into article-creation recommendations, or was the paper the
final product?
The short answer is: the paper is ideally not the final product (although
I'm thrilled with the reviews we received for it) as we like to see this
system used.
From the research perspective, we want to have a tool where we can
collect
data to learn more about and improve the link
recommendation system.
We've
had extensive conversations with Pau about this.
The model we're working
towards is a landing page where the user can get different types of
recommendations: link recommendations* and article-creation
recommendations,
and maybe more forms of recommendations in the
future. In the past three
months, Ashwin has worked closely with Pau, Nirzar, and Ed to bring us
closer to having such a tool. The tool is not ready to be used yet
(really!
you'll see it as soon as you click Add
Links), but if you're curious to
see
where we are with it, please check
http://tools.wmflabs.org/navlink-recommendation/
From the product perspective, the Editing team has set their goal to test
the tool (via the same tool on wmflabs) and if successful, figuring out
the
next steps for it. Please reach out to the team
directly if you like to
know
more.
Best,
Leila
* Initially, the tool was going to have link recommendations for two
cases:
where the anchor text existed in the article
text, and where it didn't.
We
learned that when the anchor text does not exist,
the task becomes a much
harder one from the user's perspective, since the decision is no longer
whether the link should be added or not but where it should be added and
in
what context. The tool that you see now will only
have link
recommendations
where the anchor text exists.
