The Editing Team is considering introducing an Edit Check that would offer:
- People who are editing feedback about how likely volunteers are to consider the source they're attempting to add reliable
- People who moderate edits the ability to declare what sources people who are editing should be provided feedback about
In line with the above, this tasks represents the work of:
- Identifying the technical capabilities that are likely needed to support a reference reliability check
- Evaluating the effort/complexity the could be involved with implementing the "capabilities" "1." will have surfaced
Investigation
| Capability | Description | Notes/References |
|---|---|---|
| 1. | A list of machine-readable sources that projects would like new citations checked "against" | See the work @Ladsgroup led on T337431. |
| 2. | A way for Citoid/editing interfaces to "interface" with said list | T349261 |
| 3. | A way for volunteers to configure the messages people are presented with when they attempt to add a particular source |
