Structured Data Across Wikimedia/Image Suggestions/hu

This page describes the work underway to design and build image suggestion features for experienced users, which is a tool currently in development by the Structured Data Across Wikimedia team.

This work will build on the work already begun as part of the “Add an image” structured task project. However, its focus will be shifted towards improving the processes for experienced contributors. In particular, we will target users who have edited or watched a particular article or set of articles, since they are likely to be experts in the topic and to have interest in seeing that article(s) improve.

After collecting initial feedback from several communities, the project is now moving to a first test stage, that is experimenting with the use of notifications to alert users of potential useful images for Wikipedia articles.

Háttér
A képjavaslat-UI az minden Wikimédia-projekten strukturált adatokhoz való rendszerek fejlesztését célzó SDAW-projekt kulcskomponense.

Images are key for illustrating concepts and helping people understand subjects. Considering that Wikimedia Commons contains 65 million images, we believe that it is possible to make Wikipedias substantially more illustrated with Commons images. We believe that Structured Data can open an enduring pipeline for enriching content between Commons and Wikipedia. This will help us, in turn, to grow and diversify contributors, improve content for readers, and narrow gaps in content.

Despite that, in many Wikipedias more than half of the articles have no images. This is mainly due to the complexity of the current workflow of adding media and making connections between content and images. We want to make this process easier.

Honnan indulunk
As we already said, the tool will build on the work already done for the “Add an image” structured task project. The Image Suggestion API, built by the Platform Engineering team, combines the results of the Image Suggestions Algorithm and MediaSearch to provide suggestions for images matches to unillustrated articles, using the following approach:
 * 1) Look at the Wikidata item for the article.
 * 2) Ha rendelkezik  tulajdonsággal, javasold azt a képet.
 * 3) Ha rendelkezik  tulajdonsággal, javasolj abból a kategóriából egy képet.
 * 4) Nézd meg az ugyanerről a témáról szóló szócikkeket más nyelvű Wikipédiákon. Válassz egy vezérképet ezekből a cikkekből.
 * 5) Search MediaSearch on Commons for the title of the article, which combines traditional text-based search with structured data from Commons and Wikidata. If an image ranks high enough in the results, suggest that image.

In initial tests, the combined algorithms can suggest images for up to 40% of all unillustrated articles on a given Wikipedia. We are currently doing further testing of the accuracy of the matches. Also, the Android and Growth teams are testing ideas that use the Image Suggestion API to allow newcomers to add images to articles via the suggested tasks interface.

We are also experimenting with adding the results from the Image Suggestions Algorithm directly to MediaSearch. We hope that will simplify the process technically and improve MediaSearch results. See on Phabricator for more information.

Mit szeretnénk tenni
The project is currently experimenting with an approach based on notifications. The goal is to embed the suggestions in the user’s existing Wikipedia activities through weekly notifications, thus increasing the likelihood they will review such suggestions and add selected images as part of their current editing workflow. Contributors can choose to edit via Wikitext or Visual Editor, and can review the image and the article information in the notification.

Tentative workflow
The following is the current tentative workflow we defined for this stage of testing. Wherever appropriate, there is a link to the related task on Phabricator.
 * 1) Notifications are sent weekly to all users who have at least 500 edits at a predefined day and time (e.g. every Monday at 08:00 AM UTC), all across the globe → see  on Phabricator
 * 2) Notification includes a link to user’s preferences to allow users to opt out of the notifications → about opting-out, see  on Phabricator
 * 3) * “Image Suggestions” options would be added to bottom of the list of users’ opt-in/opt-out notifications
 * 4) Suggestions are selected randomly from the list of matched recent images to unillustrated articles, using the algorithms explained above
 * 5) A szerkesztőket véletlenszerűen választjuk ki azok közül, akik:
 * 6) * legalább 500 szerkesztésük van a projektben
 * 7) * nem jelentkeztek ki az értesítésből
 * 8) * legfeljebb 2 képértesítést kaptak egy adott héten
 * 9) Az eszköz ellenőrzi a felhasználó figyelőlistáját az utóbbi 30 napon belül szerkesztett szócikkekre
 * 10) * Ha a felhasználó már kapott értesítést az adott szócikk-azonosítóról, az eszköz a következő szócikkre ugrik
 * 11) * Ellenkező esetben egyezést keres egy javaslatra, és elküldi az értesítést
 * 12) Ha marad képegyezés, az eszköz a figyelőlista további szócikkeit ellenőrzi
 * 13) Az értesítési folyamat hetente történik, amíg a képegyezések vagy a lehetséges felhasználók el nem fogynak
 * 14) * Notifications for a particular article-image match notification will only be shown once to a particular user
 * 15) * Ugyanaz az egyezés több felhasználónak is elküldhető ellenőrzése (kivéve, ha a képet beillesztették)

Felhasználói élmény
Based on the information provided in the notification, the user can:
 * 1) go through their normal image addition workflow (e.g. choose to insert the image with wikitext or Visual Editor insert flow)
 * 2) * in this case, just the opportunity to review the match will be provided to the user - no additional help or feature will be provided
 * 3) kattinthat az értesítésben szereplő „Kép ellenőrzése” gombra
 * 4) * ez átirányítja a szerkesztőt a Commonson található képre
 * 5) rákattinthat az értesítésben szereplő „Szócikk ellenőrzése” gombra
 * 6) * ez a felhasználót a Wikipédián lévő szócikkre irányítja

Ötletek a jövőre
The following bullet list lists all the ideas that are out of scope of the current test stage, but might be worked upon in the future:
 * Suggestions to users who have uploaded images on Commons that match articles
 * Suggestions given in other ways besides via notifications (e.g. suggestions in the image search dialogue in VisualEditor)
 * Illusztrált szócikkek
 * Szakaszszintű képjavaslatok
 * Egy, a szócikkhez való képhozzáadást segítő eszköz
 * A landing page that lets users review multiple suggestions at once
 * Limiting notifications only to users who have a history of adding images to articles in the last 30 days

Metrics and analytics
We are planning on measuring the following metrics, to analyse the performance of the current testing and determine whether the tool is successful:
 * 1) Elküldött értesítések száma
 * 2) Number of image suggestions notifications opened (measuring engagement with notifications)
 * 3) Kijelentkezettek száma (kevés kijelentkezett = az értesítések hasznosak)
 * 4) Number of images suggested that are added to the matched article within a month of receiving the notification
 * 5) Number of suggested images not reverted from their matched article (low revert rate = good quality of suggested matches)

Mit nem akarunk tenni

 * Olyan eszközt létrehozni, ami használatlan lesz, mert nincs indok a használatra
 * Bosszantani a felhasználókat a túl sok értesítéssel
 * Olyan szerkesztéseket bátorítani, amiket túlnyomórészt visszaállítanak
 * Encourage edits that go against existing policies and/or practises (NPOV, original research...)
 * A szócikkhez további egyenlőtlenséget hozzáadó szerkesztéseket bátorítani

Visszajelzés
Project feedback is and will always be welcome. We are especially interested in your ideas, and we are looking forward to hearing from you on the talk page about the following open questions:
 * 1) What is your opinion about the approaches outlined above?
 * 2) Should we be helping editors with image placement location?
 * 3) How can we help users make sure they are following the conventions of a particular wiki when choosing and placing an image?
 * 4) Hogy segíthetünk a szerkesztőknek a megfelelő leírások hozzáadásában?
 * 5) Hogy segíthetünk a felhasználóknak a megfelelő alternatív szöveg hozzáadásában?

Miről szól a Képjavaslat eszköz?
The image suggestion tool is a key component of the Structured Data Across Wikimedia project, and it aims to make it easier for users to find potential images and media for currently unillustrated articles.

Does the Image suggestion tool somehow intersect with the “Add an image” tool from the Growth Team?
Technically yes. The two tools share the same algorithm, but they also serve different purposes:
 * the “Add an image” tool is intended for newcomers and less experienced users, who have little to no experience with adding images;
 * a Képjavaslat eszközt valamivel régebbi szerkesztőknek szánjuk, akiknek már van tapasztalatuk a képek és más médiafájlok szócikkekhez való hozzáadásával (azaz a több mint 500 szerkesztéssel rendelkező szerkesztőknek).

What is the relation between the Image suggestion tool and Wikidata/Structured Data on Commons?
This tool will leverage the data coming from Wikidata and Structured Data on Commons to find potential media to add on unillustrated Wikipedia articles.

More specifically, the tool will look at the relative Wikidata item, and will check if it has an image (through Wikidata property P18) or an associated Commons category (through Wikidata property P373). If in both cases no potential images are found, it will look at other Wikipedia articles in other languages to see if there is a lead image to be found. Finally, the tool will search MediaSearch on Commons for the title of the article, and if an image ranks high enough in the results, the tool will choose that image.

Hogy működnek az értesítések?
The tool will select up to two unillustrated articles per week from the list of articles in a user’s watchlist. Each particular article-image match will be shown only once to the user. The selection will prioritize articles edited at least once in the last 30 days.

If a user has already received a notification for a particular article, the tool will proceed to the next one in the list. The notification process will be generated weekly, until image matches or applicable users are exhausted.

Milyen képeket javasolnak az egyezésekhez?
Only images from Wikimedia Commons will be suggested for the article-image matches. There is no plan to extend notifications also to locally-uploaded images.

Hogy kapcsolhatom ki az értesítéseket?
If you don't want to receive notifications (any more), go to Special:GlobalPreferences, then click the tab "Notifications", and remove the ticks related to Image suggestions. Note: this works only if you access Global Preferences through one of the projects that have Image suggestions enabled (so far: Portuguese, Russian or Indonesian Wikipedia).
