[14:44:32] halfak I forgot to change the topic back yesterday, and now (once again) I don't have the permissions. Original topic was "Welcome to the Wikimedia Research channel -- a space for discussion of wiki research | https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research - https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Research | Channel is publicly logged @ https://wm-bot.wmflabs.org/logs/#wikimedia-research/" [14:47:12] nvm halfak fixed it [15:18:54] o/ halfak [15:19:03] o/ [15:19:18] just wanted to say that it seems the metrics process is /waaaaaay/ improved. [15:19:30] \o/ nice :) [15:19:35] omg! I can't believe I can have the name of the researchers on the slide. [15:19:50] I'll write more later, just went over Sam's comments and am ecstatic. ;) [15:20:04] * leila was shivering the whole yesterday. [15:27:27] I'm really glad that it all worked out :D [15:28:08] Take that! [16:08:13] lzia: what metrics process? [16:08:33] Hm https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_metrics_and_activities_meetings , I hope Mule Design also considered multilingualism [16:11:08] Nothing multilingual in http://muledesigns.com/our-work/ [16:13:22] hi Nemo_bis. at some point, a lot of steps were added for people to be able to present in metrics. that process was very heavy for us (for example, editing slides to make them compatible with the style, could take me a few hours, which would be too much, or we would receive a note that you can't have names of people on the slides, people who contributed to the project) [16:14:27] Nemo_bis: obviously we preferred not to spend time on our end on these kind of items, but also not to waste Communications time discussing these. so I'm happy that this time when I'm preparing for MM, I see the process is much more light-weight and still results in a (relatively) coherent presentation. :) [16:14:33] Ah ok, the process for the meeting itself. Ok. [16:14:38] yes yes. :) [16:15:04] Yeah, the selection of topics in the meetings has been quite random due to the effort needed [16:15:38] yeah, I have a sense that this is still a heavy process for some people in Communications. Hopefully that can be improved, too, if that's a hurdle for them. [16:21:43] hall1467, just saw that you scheduled a meeting with me today. What's up? [16:37:12] halfak: Had a few things to talk about. For one, was hoping to get some feedback on some analyses I'm doing and/or working with Julie and Gaby on [16:37:30] I could shorten it to 30 minutes if you like [16:41:26] If you think we can do it in 30, let's do that [16:44:03] Nemo_bis: did you hear back from marco about the translation? any chance we can have it this evening UTC? [17:16:04] HaeB: he said he would do it but maybe I should start instead [17:31:17] halfak: Okay, sounds good. Thanks [19:49:10] Nemo_bis: thanks - i'm checking about the signpost deadline, but as it is it would needed to come in in the next 3 hours or so to make it into this issue [20:20:33] soo, I have a problem. it seems meta is detecting https://youtu.be/mG6fBk78VRQ?t=29m18s video as a spam and doesn't let me enter it in https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Characterizing_Wikipedia_Reader_Behaviour#Presentations . can someone tell me what I should do? :D [20:21:31] leila: did you try the unshortened link? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mG6fBk78VRQ&t=29m18s [20:21:48] * leila tries [20:22:19] * leila claps for HaeB. it worked. [21:03:26] * halfak peeks at DarTar from documentation land [21:03:51] it’s a vast, uncharted territory [21:06:57] DarTar, did you want to get on a call for the WMF blog stuff? [21:07:17] oh, I have a reminder for myself to work on the quote [21:07:32] not an actual meeting, I cc’ed you as a public commitment :D [21:07:56] :) [21:07:57] kk [21:08:20] * halfak continues to sing badly in his office without worrying about embarrassing himself. [21:08:37] lol [21:20:01] halfak: do we have an epic-level task for the citation context extraction work? I wanted to cross-reference it from the main phab thread coreyfloyd started [21:20:17] -._o_.- [21:24:34] halfak: AFAIK there’s only the private task about the contract, the rest of the work has been tracked on wiki and etherpad notes [21:24:42] does that sound about right? [21:24:45] I think that's right. [21:24:48] k cool
