[19:37:39] does anyone know how i might be able to get in touch with nettrom? [19:48:55] maybe some sort of sky beacon? [19:48:56] or bait [19:52:49] * harej dispatches a carrier pigeon to Minnesota [19:53:02] harej: he's actually at CSCW in San Francisco [19:53:13] * harej diverts the pigeon to San Francisco [19:53:38] yuvipanda: tell him to turn on the wikiproject suggestbot [19:53:47] or are you at work today [19:54:01] harej: I'm at the conference [19:54:08] harej: I haven't seen him but will suggest this to him if I can find it [22:31:00] harej: I heard you were looking for me? [22:31:13] yes! so, you know your script that generates requests for wikiprojects? [22:31:19] mhm [22:31:58] is there anything that's preventing it from being run on a schedule? [22:32:03] because it hasn't been run in some time [22:32:48] based on the feedback we got when we tested it out, it should perhaps be rewritten so it restricts articles to a specific WikiProject, and doesn’t suggest anything if the project hasn’t tagged articles [22:33:27] well, if the project hasn't tagged articles, can't it just use an arbitrary seed category? [22:33:47] it’ll suggest articles outside the scope of the WikiProject then [22:33:59] which seemed to be an issue, as far as I remember [22:34:02] wikiproject women in technology hasn't tagged articles yet; i configured it to seed from category:women in technology [22:34:29] so what if it only recommended articles within the wikiproject scope if the wikiproject has tagged articles, and not apply that restriction if the wikiproject has not tagged articles? [22:35:12] hmm, I wonder if we should have some logic that recommends tagged articles if the project has done that, or otherwise looks for imbalanced articles if it hasn't [22:35:29] and by “imbalanced” I mean articles that are viewed much but not particularly high quality [22:35:35] Right. [22:36:20] if we do that, it’ll always suggest articles within the scope of a project [22:55:47] hey schana. question: do you know who we should contact to figure out what the issue with your access in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T125946 is? [22:55:54] It would be great if we can push the survey out today. [22:56:53] I'm not sure who to contact [22:57:33] let me ask around schana. [22:58:04] Also, looking at the SWAT schedule, it seems that there isn't anything else happening today https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments#Week_of_February_29th [22:58:14] unless I'm missing something [22:58:42] oh, nvm [22:58:50] It's listed in UTC for tomorrow [23:01:49] schana: greg-g just responded there. Can you check? [23:03:28] doesn't explain why it was working but now isn't, but I'll give it a go [23:06:52] Nettrom: so, is there a timeline for implementing this? [23:07:01] (sorry if I already sent this; for some reason it's not showing up as sent to me) [23:08:12] harej: (no, think it didn’t get sent for some reason) I’m thinking I can work on it this coming weekend and maybe get some test code ready, then maybe another week for testing? [23:08:42] Sure [23:09:36] do we still have a Phabricator item for this? [23:10:28] There's this: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T116830 [23:10:44] Do you want me to create a task for having SuggestBot-for-WikiProjects running on a crontab schedule? [23:11:40] I’m not sure that’s necessary, I’ll update T116830 with the current plan, and make a note that the goal is to have this running through cron [23:11:40] T116830: Address cause of irrelevant outputs for SuggestBot - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T116830 [23:12:35] schana: did it fix it? [23:13:03] leila: I was able to make the commit, yes [23:13:13] ow cool, schana. :-) [23:13:14] https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/274005/ [23:14:37] thanks, schana. :-) [23:14:53] np :)
