"Data health" link needs to be replaced or removed #565

Closed pgaudet closed 3 years ago

pgaudet commented 5 years ago

Hello,

The 'datahealth' icon on the AmiGO annotation pages goes to a 404 page on the website:

Can the link go to the help email ?
And can the label be changed to 'Send Feedback'?

Thanks, Pascale

Can you please assign someone to this ?

@ukemi Okay, looking at this, it is a link to the old "form". Currently, we no long have a form (long-form anonymous text input in the browser). The immediate options are:

1) Remove data health tags; as far as I know these links have never been used anyways, so little loss 2) Turn it into a preloaded help at geneontology.org "mailto" link; easy, but may be a spam magnet 3) Turn it into a link to a GH data form, like https://github.com/geneontology/helpdesk/issues/new?assignees=&labels=&template=issue-report.md&title=Data+Narfed ; easy, but requires GH account.

I would suggest 3, then 1. 2 I believe will cause more churn than help.

This can be revisited once we get whatever comes next for the helpdesk setup.

We need to provide an easy way for users to contact the consortium from AmiGO. If this is not it, where would we put that link ?

Thanks, Pascale

ValWood commented 5 years ago

I agree, there should be a "contact" link on every consortium/amigo page. And it shouldn't say "data health"

ukemi commented 5 years ago

I agree. Doesn't it make most sense to just put the 'contact us' link on the pages similar to the way it is on the home page?

ukemi commented 5 years ago

For consistency, shouldn't the same footer go on all GOC pages?

kltm commented 5 years ago

Okay, some history for this is here: https://github.com/geneontology/amigo/issues/365 . TL;DR: This was not meant to be a "contact us" thing from the beginning. There was some more off-tracker discussion on this, but it's not at hand.

I'm more than happy to get rid of it in favor of a more homepage-like footer. (The literal footer cannot be reused, but we can get something with similar information.)

@ukemi Ideally, there is not a lot of iteration on this. With #566 we'll already be kicking to something "functional". I would propose then:

Remove "data health"--its time has apparently passed
Add additional information to left side of AmiGO footer (as right is already version info)
- (Ignoring "Feedback" in the upper menu) Change left footer's third item to "Contact us (Helpdesk)"

Otherwise, if the changes cannot be explained in simple text here, could somebody put together a mock-up of what they want it to look like, including the additional versioning information.

Can this close?

kltm commented 3 years ago

Seems to work, no longer 404.
