[11:49:28] Samwalton9: Hello! I'm Pooja, and I am an aspiring Outreachy applicant in the current round. I'd like to work on the project where we build a system for releasing data dumps from the CITATION NEED classifier. I'm trying to read the associated paper, but I find it difficult to understand the gist of it. Perhaps, it's because this is my first time [11:49:29] ever to read an academic paper. I'll appreciate any resources on how to read academic research papers. I'm quite excited and look forward to a fun learning experience. [11:51:50] Hi pgadige! You might find it easier to start with the Meta page (https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Identification_of_Unsourced_Statements) or even the blog post (https://wikimediafoundation.org/news/2019/04/03/can-machine-learning-uncover-wikipedias-missing-citation-needed-tags/) [11:52:02] Academic papers can be quite dense, so getting an overview of the topic first might help you :) [12:03:15] ooooh I hope they return (I can be a consultant on the 'publish the dumps to the world' piece) [12:13:50] Samwalton9: thank you for sharing the blog post. I'm enjoying what I read there. :] [12:18:27] I'm glad its helpful! [13:02:01] Running about 5 minutes late fyi [13:17:36] Hi everyone! :] My name is Olga, I am an Outreachy applicant and got really interested in Wikimedia project1, because I am recent Computer Science graduate, and really keen into NLP and ML. Still reading documentations and details of the project, so to register and to join this chat is my first happy completed step!O:3 [13:22:25] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T233707 [13:23:48] welcome lalapupa! [13:25:28] thank you apergos ! [13:25:41] :-) [13:34:26] Hi everyone, my name is Tolu. I'm an Outreachy applicant. I hope to learn from and work with everyone. [13:34:43] hello Tolu and welcome! [13:36:29] Thank you :) [15:18:56] Hi everupme. I am an Outreachy applicant, and I'm looking at the "data dumps from the 'citation needed' classifier" project: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T233707 [15:19:40] hah, that was supposed to say 'Hi everyone' ... [15:20:39] ^ Samwalton9, should I look at the 'task graph' on that page. Are those the 'contributions' that are required? [15:21:53] Hi kmwerts :) Yes, the task right below contains links on getting set up and the next one down is a beginner task to get you familiar with using the model. Because it's a new project rather than an existing tool we don't really have the same kind of intro tasks as other projects :) [15:22:13] ok great, I will take a look. Thanks! [15:43:08] Samwalton9 whenever there's a slight internet problem I keep getting disconnected and lose all previous chat😞 [15:43:24] Did i miss any new updates? [15:44:19] Shamima_19, nope - we're just answering questions here. If there are updates about the project or tasks they'll be made in Phabricator! [15:44:59] J-Mo, do users need to be registered to join this channel? [15:45:18] Samwalton9 nope [15:45:38] Hm, I have a user saying they received a +r response saying they need to identify [15:46:11] hmmm. my IRC foo is not strong. halfak? guillom? HaeB? [15:46:34] Yeah sorry I pinged you as the latest person to come online :) [15:46:41] no prob ;) [15:47:50] hope we can debug. I can't recall having that problem myself, but I kinda only learn new IRC esoterica when forced to, and then I promptly forget it [15:48:21] Yes, I was asked to register my name to join the channel Samwalton9 [15:48:42] Hmm, that's not ideal! [15:48:49] It tells you how to do it, but yes, not ideal [15:57:43] Yes hello [16:01:49] I think +r was set in here at some point a couple years ago when there was a wave of spam/troll attacks [16:04:58] it'd be "/mode #wikimedia-research -r" to turn it off [16:09:57] Emufarmers Samwalton9 kmwerts I think I deactivated it? fingers crossed [16:10:26] Thanks! [16:21:33] Hi ibia_ahmad :) [16:21:43] hi back [16:24:36] J-Mo, yes you have fixed it. I didn't have to register this one. [19:51:41] Hello again everyone ! [19:52:10] I just wanted to note that I'm still having trouble accessing phabricator [19:52:54] I'm in Egypt , i tried two different ISP's and this is what i get "Internal Server ErrorThe server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.Please contact the server administrator at webmaster@wikimedia.org to inform them of the time this error occurred, and the actions you performed just before this [19:52:55] error.More information about this error may be available in the server error log." [19:56:34] isaacj: qq. can I officially announce you as the point person for reuse discussions on officewiki? this can make it clearer to people who they should come to for what. This then also means any other reuse related work (or even the economic value of public domain/Wikipedia, etc.) can be led by you. [19:57:36] aya-s: have you emailed that email address? [19:57:41] aya-s: and hi. :) [19:57:58] leila: yep, that works for me. thanks for checking :) [19:57:58] hi :D , doing so now [19:58:39] aya-s: awesome. let us know if you run into issues. Is there anything specific you're looking for and blocked on I can look up for you and send you over email or some other way? [19:58:48] isaacj: great. [19:59:57] just FYI -- we had trouble w/ phabricator for some of the outreachy tasks last time (it was during some phabricator outage issues) and i just provided details to those applicants via IRC etc. while we waited for accounts to be approved. not ideal but it's not a new problem either [20:00:51] good to know. [20:00:56] happy to help [20:06:05] leila I'm trying to access https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T233707 to learn about the outreachy task [20:11:14] aya-s: let me copy and paste the text and link to you here. stay tuned. [20:12:20] aya-s: ow wow! it's /that/ task. so it's actually research related. nice! <3 [20:14:33] aya-s: I copied the description of the task you linked in https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/XH6WkSmARmw8dy7UMiIR . The task has two subtasks, I'll copy the content of those in the same link. I'll ping you here when I'm done. [20:16:30] dsaez: can you do 2 things? Convince sukhe to join this channel /and/ ask him about the timelines of the task you told me about this morning? Ideally: by when does he want to see it done? [20:16:57] morning -> your afternoon ; ) [20:18:35] aya-s: the task descriptions for the 3 tasks are now in that etherpad link. Good luck! [20:19:41] Awesome that you so much leila !! appreciate help [20:19:50] djellel: checking T234473 it seems you have a couple of steps to take. [20:20:00] aya-s: anytime.
