Description

When I'm not logged in and load the explore/share page, I don't see Genevieve listed: https://www.openhumans.org/explore-share/

It seems it should be listed here -- users share data with it, and it currently has "approved" status.

madprime commented 6 years ago

This particular missing thing is weird, but we've known this page has issues. Thinking about it, I think the explore-share page should have the following logic:

Any approved and active project that is either...

(a) requesting access to username or data sources
(b) NOT listed in the add-data list

This would capture a lot of what we're currently unhappy about (regarding projects not showing up). I think there's still some cases where I'm not excited by how things sort out. e.g. a survey-based research study that deposits survey data ... would only show up as "add-data".

(That said, this would hopefully be a clear improvement over the current listings.)

@gedankenstuecke what do you think?

Right, the surveys are one thing, the Twitter archive would still be only 'add data', despite being designed to largely explore data. How about we give project leads a choice to choose where they'd like to be listed?

madprime commented 6 years ago

I like that idea! Explore/share is something we can't automatically determine.

Proposed behavior, what do you think?

In response to "Where should your project be listed?" a project can select "Add data" and "Explore & Share", and at least one of these must be true. (Although maybe the backend should have two different fields here.)
If "Add data" is set to "true" there must also be a "returned data description" (otherwise the form is considered invalid)
But it is allowed to have a "returned data description" without being listed as "Add data"

And for existing projects, the new fields can default according to the logic I described above.

Yep, that sounds good to me! 👍

Just noticed: The Juno Exploratory doesn't show up on either page as well.
