Import top 3 mems #43

Open nicolasmaia opened 7 years ago

nicolasmaia commented 7 years ago

This extension only imports mems you've already chosen, but it would be more helpful if it imported the top 3 most voted mems and showed them as hints in the Anki cards, so you don't need to check memrise all the time for mems when learning new words.

Getting the top-rated mem should be easy. We could get even more, but there is just one field for mems... do you want multiple mems merged into one field?

I think that sounds good. 3 is an arbitrary number I thought of, just to give the learner more options. Similar to how Heisig's RTK deck pulls the top 3 kanji mneumonics from koohii.

Also, fetching the pictures is a must too :)

The future of mems is still somewhat unclear, memrise even temporarily removed the possibility to see mems created by other users: https://community.memrise.com/t/memrise-release-notes-27-apr-2017/12072 https://community.memrise.com/t/memrise-release-notes-4-may-2017/12411

And to be honest, I'm quite busy at the moment and I don't really need this feature myself. So, I can't make any promises...

That's true. In fact, their mem fuckup drove me away from memrise and towards Anki and this add-on in the first place :)

Community-created mems are the only advantage Memrise has over Anki, and if this add-on can fetch them, Anki will be superior is every sense. But take your time 🙏

Hi are there any updates on this feature? I would really like to download multiple mems for the same word
