Ok, couple questions before deciding how to proceed:

  1. How many tags should there be to not qualify as an insane amount?
  2. Are we letting people add tags on the new site or not?
  3. Is there an easy way to see how many tags on this list have been used only once? That could be a way to purge. Thx!
davidascher commented 7 years ago

  1. I don't have a great number, but you basically want people to find tags that fit their data "enough". So it depends on the total number of cases. I'd say 100 is fine for now

  2. not at this point (localization issues, etc. -- we're asking them to ask us to add tags, which we can do easily)

  3. Yes, I think @dethe can easily do that. I can, a bit less easily =)

dethe commented 7 years ago

Quickie tag count, almost certainly has false positives (believe it or not that tag list has gone through at least a couple of levels of cleanup already).

OK, deleting all the 0's (?) and 1's would take us down to 200 tag options. Is that a good enough reduction for now? I would imagine we have to run this by the wider team at some point. But if we just need a cleanup for this phase to test, I'd say go with that.

scottofletcher commented 7 years ago

Hmm..I don't think deleting all the 0s would necessarily be the right way to go about this - I think it's better to see which ones are actually useful for PPedia purposes rather than how many people have used them. Reason being: there are a lot of entries by the same author that use the same tags; those entries were created early on (2011-2012) and then those tags just got picked up by later authors (ie. they clicked whatever came up as an option when they started typing). I'd like to take go through and pick out those I think would be most useful moving forward. Obviously this is going to be subjective so I'll let you guys weigh in on my top 100 and then send it to Pat for final approval. Sound good?

jesicarson commented 7 years ago

@scottofletcher sounds great! Thanks for taking this on. You can tag @plscully here as well, and keep all the work in one place. Thanks!

scottofletcher commented 7 years ago

Will do! I'll make a Google Sheet so everything stays online

plscully commented 7 years ago

@scottofletcher @jesicarson @dethe -- I like Scott's plan as a starting point. After a very quick skim through the list it seems as though even many of the tags with the largest number of hits can be deleted, e.g., participatory, budgeting, etc. Anything that is easily captured in typical search such as the name of a country, the name of an organization, etc. I'm happy to give this a once through after Scott has finished.

scottofletcher commented 7 years ago

@plscully @jesicarson @dethe @davidascher Follow my progress here and feel free to edit/comment https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1o_khNAl0GAx_6jgkt5_wiLLDLYZq9lHLThNIaRnp59k/edit?usp=sharing Also, just a note: we might want to keep some heavily used tags like 'Participatory Budgeting' IF users can sort entries by tag AND where the 'tag' sorting option is relative to other sorting labels (eg. method, which would make PB unnecessary as a tag). On the current platform you can't sort by tag and I think they're mostly used for SEO

jesicarson commented 7 years ago

Note: During user testing, two testers pointed out that it was disconcerting that the word they began typing didn't show up in the list of tags. This also ties into the issue of "other" in form fields, and when / where we request users submit suggestions (design needed).

jesicarson commented 7 years ago

related: #550

scottofletcher commented 7 years ago

What tags were they looking for? I can't imagine any word they might have typed that didn't come up seeing as how many tags there are... I'm also not sure how many tags to include in my condensed list because it partly depends on whether or not the tags are going to be accessible for sorting (see, for example, the 'Categories' drop down menu on Tiago's blog: https://democracyspot.net/)

jesicarson commented 7 years ago

As of now, tags are not viewed in a list anywhere (just show up when you begin typing) but we can change this once the list is more curated. In that case, maybe we should call this field something other than tags, since tags are typically user-generated?

scottofletcher commented 7 years ago

Agreed - Wikipedia calls them categories and they can be seen at the bottom of the page. Eg. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy

scottofletcher commented 7 years ago

This one has a crazy amount https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom - I don't think we need to have as many

jesicarson commented 7 years ago

@plscully Can you review Scott's work on the tags triage and let us know if that is approved before we go through the data form overhaul? Thanks! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1o_khNAl0GAx_6jgkt5_wiLLDLYZq9lHLThNIaRnp59k/edit?usp=sharing

scottofletcher commented 7 years ago

Also note that Jesi and I talked and decided to go with user-defined tags but agreed that I'd go through them once a month or so to cleanup ones that are irrelevant/unrelated, duplicates, or contain grammatical/spelling errors

jesicarson commented 7 years ago

Not sure that’s a final decision, but we did discuss that. Keep hearing that user entered stuff just gets messy and not useful data anyway. So not sure on this one. Figured for now we’d just offer the list of tags from you and see if anyone requests to add more via the contact feature (still to be designed) that applies to list select entries.

scottofletcher commented 7 years ago

Sorry, shouldn't have said we decided - I'm good with whatever is going to give us the best data and the best user experience

plscully commented 7 years ago

Can someone please clarify what the purpose of the tagging system is to be in the new site? I'm embarrassed to say that I don't recall exactly we intended the purpose of tagging to be in the Drupal site. It may not be a good idea to keep them if we're not confident they serve a useful purpose.

Do we want our new tags to be like Wikimedia's user-generated "categories"? Or if we want them to be primarily for SEO, how important is it to keep them, or even reduce their number? As someone who is not familiar with the ins & outs of tags, I found this article on Wikipedia to be useful.

scottofletcher commented 7 years ago

To my knowledge the 'categories' function on both Wikipedia and Wikimedia isn't user generated - at least not the same extent that ours are right now. IE it's like the methods field where users are limited to selecting those categories that already exist. That's how Wikipedia/media cuts out the spam. We're currently wide open to spam but Jesi thought it might be a good idea to leave the field open-ended to give users more freedom - I agree but our stipulation would be that I'd have access to them and would go through and 'cull' the spam/useless tags once every so often.

scottofletcher commented 7 years ago

Just read this - Wikipedia 'heads off' changes to categories: "Almost all category name changes are made pursuant to a consensus decision at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion". I'd assume that goes for new categories and changes to sub-categories

plscully commented 7 years ago

Hey Scott - Thank you for this helpful clarification. Whether the field is wide open or subject to our approval, this still begs the question of what purpose tags will serve on our site. I like the idea of a categories function if it works the way Wikipedia's does, but if we go down that path we may want to wait until we see how people use the new data model before adding that type of categories/tags function.

@dethe @andrea are tags useful to make the site more searchable via the ppedia search bar and also do they make us more findable on google? Can you weigh in on Pat's question about why any site would use tags? I'd also like to know. Thanks!

Tagging is a fun topic.

From Flickr:

" Folksonomy is a neologism for a practice of collaborative categorization using freely chosen keywords. This feature began appearing in a variety of social software in 2004. Some examples of online folksonomies being social bookmarking sites like del.icio.us and Jots (jots.com/) which are bookmark sharing sites, Flickr, for photo sharing, 43 Things, for goal sharing, GenieLab and Upto11, for music recommendations and associations, and Tagsurf (tagsurf.com/), for tag-based discussions. Gmail's labeling system is somewhat similar to the use of tags, but it is not a folksonomy as users cannot share their categorizations. Folksonomy is not directly related to the concept of faceted classification from library science.

Folksonomy is currently understood somewhat narrowly as "tagging." Social sciences and anthropology have long studied "folk classifications"—how average people (non-experts) classify the world around them. One reference is Harold Conklin's Folk Classification: A Topically Arranged Bibliography of Contemporary and Background References Through 1971 (1972, ISBN 0913516023)

Folksonomies work best when a large number of users all describe the same piece of information. For instance, on del.icio.us, many people have bookmarked Wikipedia (del.icio.us/url/bca8b85b54a7e6c01a1bcfaf15be1df5), each with a different set of words to describe it. Among the various tags used, del.icio.us shows that reference, wiki, and encyclopedia are the most popular.

"Jon Udell (2004) argues that the idea of abandoning taxonomy in favor of lists of keywords is not new, and that the fundamental difference in these systems is feedback."[1] (www.adammathes.com/academic/computer-mediated-communicati...)

A portmanteau of the words folk (or folks) and taxonomy, the term folksonomy has been attributed to Thomas Vander Wal. Taxonomy is from "taxis" and "nomos" (from Greek). Taxis means classification. Nomos (or nomia) means management. Folk is people (from German). So folksonomy means people's classification management. "

The question for the project is the degree to which you want "random users" to build their own categorization approaches, including whether to layer tags on top of other people's content, or whether you want to "own" the categorization.

I will say that I think folksonomies in practice seem to require a very large number of users to work, and they make localization impossible. So my personal bias (which I'm happy to put aside) is to not support user-submitted tags, to encourage people to make 'reading lists' as their curation process, but to have tags be authoritative and decided by core staff, and let entry authors just "pick" from that list. That list should fairly short if it's to be useful.

I agree with David on the limited list of tags - see this document for the list I came up with https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1o_khNAl0GAx_6jgkt5_wiLLDLYZq9lHLThNIaRnp59k/edit?usp=sharing I used the NCDD website and Tiago Piexoto's blog for inspiration but ultimately tried to choose words and phrases that were more abstract or 'broader' than the current data fields. I think it would be interesting to allow users to sort by tag since that's what I usually do when I go to a new website or I'm doing broad research around a new or unfamiliar topic. For example, I may be interested in cases where citizens took 'direct action' which is easier to understand than trying to sort cases by purpose (Independent Action, Protest, Social Mobilization, etc.) or method (protest, community organizing etc.) - terms which new users may not be familiar with. The ability to curate reading lists is also an interesting idea but wouldn't really have any impact on data or SEO. I do think we need to keep Jesi's comment in mind: part of the Participedia project (esp. InterPARES) is understanding how people categorize or interpret broad concepts like 'participation' or single instances or events (eg. someone labelling a case 'failure' or 'government inattention' might tell us something about public perception). If tags aren't available to users and are just 'in the background' (like on our current website) then they wouldn't be too much of a problem. We could also limit the number of tags to, say, five. I think doing a periodic cleanup would also work (we'd only have to get rid of ones with spelling errors). Another thing I've been meaning to bring up - and which carries relevance for tags, methods, and topics/issues - is the auto-complete function: is it possible to have more 'intelligent' suggestions? For example, if I'm writing a case on a protest, I'd start typing "P-R-O" into the methods field which gives me things like "Initiative PROcess", "Parliamentary PROcess" and "PROtest". However, once I've selected Protest, it would be helpful if there was a list of similar/related methods and a prompt like "Other cases that used that method also used..." That would be helpful for two main reasons: 1 - authors tend to leave out methods. For example, they may select an 'overarching' method like Participatory Budgeting but leave out the deliberative tools like Future Workshops or Dynamic Facilitation. 2 - sometimes it's difficult to know which method to enter. I might enter 'Information and Communications Technology' when I actually meant 'Audience Response Systems' but didn't have the right wording or was unfamiliar with the vocabulary.

"tags" as we are using them now (on .xyz) are much more like categories in that we have a fixed set that users can choose from, rather than allowing users to create their own. They differ from some site's categories because we allow more than one to be in effect at a time. For me, the main issues with user-entered tags are:

  1. Localization: is the tag "women" show as (and searchable as) "mujere" if the user is viewing in Español?

  2. Fragmentation: if users create tags "organizational," "organisational," "orgs," "organization," and "organizations" do we recognize those as fundamentally the same or group them in any way? If not, then we get a LOT of tags that each point to one or two things, rather than useful grouping.

I like the description that @dethe gave about how tags will work on xyz. (Especially since I still can't fathom what purpose they serve on the current site.) If we continue down this path, then we will need to pay close attention to how we generate and sign off on the approved tags. Will it create problems if we hold off on finalizing the list until after the data models are updated? Also, will we be able to use localization to create standardized translations for the tags?
