Mismatch between name retrieved with SSO and from author list #23

Closed gdujany closed 3 years ago

gdujany commented 9 years ago

The name I get from the SSO is often different from the one I registered in the author list mainly because:

To mitigate it I experimented with fuzzywuzzy to have more permissive matching, see pull request #24

25 is an alternative approach

Another way to pass the buck could be to ask the creation of an egroup with all the voters in it. As long as I don't have to fill that egroup myself it would be a quick solution because checking the egroup appurtenance is super easy with the SSO.

I agree. I think this should be up to the Collaboratin Board/membership comittee/however handles this thing. I think this shouldn't be up to us in the sense that if there isn't a good solution and has to be done manually, it's the job of the people who know....

The problem will be that others won't want to do it if it involves manual labour ...

How much could we automate this? Require people to "register to vote" like in a real election? As part of this they go to a webpage which says "we think you are eligible to vote" if there is a clear match or "We do not think you are eligible to vote but there are people very similar to you who are: list of names" please pick one. Then all we/CB have to do is approve those choices.
