Introduction
ORES is a machine prediction web service. You give it revisions and it will tell you if the edit that created it is likely to be vandalism, if a new draft article about an engineering firm is likely to be spam, or when the article about Biology got to be such high quality.
ORES is both an experimental new technology and a high capacity, production service.
At this hackathon, we're looking to extend support to new wikis and languages (currently 30 languages and 35 wikis -- over 70 different prediction models!). We're also working on some experimental new models -- e.g. a model that would route new article creations to subject-specific new page review backlogs (e.g. biographies about political activists & politicians). We're also doing a documentation sprint.
How to get ORES for your wiki
One of our goals in the ORES project is to make sure that every wiki can have access to advanced quality predictions for fighting vandalism and measuring content growth. In this session, we'll be giving an overview of what ORES is and what it currently supports. Then we'll be answering questions about what it takes to make ORES work for *your* wiki.
The goal of this session is to socialize ORES to developers, identify new collaborators, and create tasks for setting up new models in new wikis.
