[17:12:41] [telegram] Toolhub is a catalog of 1500+ tools used every day in a wide variety of workflows across many Wiki projects. We are currently planning improvements for the search functionality and need your input – whether you are already familiar with Toolhub or not. Please take 5-10 minutes to leave feedback. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Toolhub/Data_model/Feedback [17:14:54] [telegram] 🥳YNK [17:18:30] [telegram] Pretty sure that was spam [17:18:50] [telegram] Looked like spam to me; I reported it but couldn't delete it [17:19:57] [telegram] I did the same: marked as spam, but the report was sent to Telegram, not to group admins 😐 [18:57:07] [telegram] BTW, I noticed in the FAQ it says that by default Hackathon sessions are not recorded. I've never quite understood why that was the default, but this year apparently a lot of the Wikidata technical training has been directed away from main Wikimania programming towards the Hackathon. Do you know if these trainings will be recorded? It would be a shame if such valuable training sessions could only be experience [18:57:32] [telegram] Tag: @Auregann [19:01:03] [telegram] hopefully that just means it's up to the presenter? (re @fuzheado: BTW, I noticed in the FAQ it says that by default Hackathon sessions are not recorded. I've never quite understood why that was ...) [19:01:25] [telegram] Which is unreliable and likely to mean it's not recorded (re @jeremy_b: hopefully that just means it's up to the presenter?) [19:01:40] [telegram] yes I agree 💯 [19:02:14] [telegram] https://t.me/wmhack/22336 [19:02:15] [telegram] policy for this time [19:02:45] [telegram] https://t.me/wmhack/20849 [19:02:46] [telegram] and for reference here's previous hackathon [19:03:32] [telegram] It would be good to harmonize this comment against the FAQ, which says: [19:03:33] [telegram] [19:03:34] [telegram] "Will sessions be recorded so I can watch them back later? [19:03:35] [telegram] [19:03:37] [telegram] It depends on the session. Some events (such as the hackathon) don’t get recorded. Some speakers might not feel comfortable with having their session recorded. To the extent that’s possible, most sessions will definitely be recorded." (re @haleywmf: (You must register for Wikimania because that is how you will get access to the platform. It also has a privacy policy so we can...) [19:05:30] [telegram] Thanks for this. I hope it's true. The problem is the FAQ for Wikimania says "Some events (such as the hackathon) don’t get recorded." But maybe that's stale, or maybe that's for non-tutorial sessions? Either way, it would be good go get clarity. [19:05:31] [telegram] [19:05:32] [telegram] https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help_desk#The_Event_Online (re @jeremy_b: https://t.me/wmhack/22336 [19:05:34] [telegram] policy for this time) [19:10:27] [telegram] I'm not involved at all in organizing the hackathon this year, so I'm afraid I can't answer your question :) [19:13:32] [telegram] It was my understanding that a lot of Wikidata related content was in Hackathon versus Wikimania's main grid in the past? (re @Auregann: I'm not involved at all in organizing the hackathon this year, so I'm afraid I can't answer your question :)) [19:15:29] [telegram] That's what I heard, yes: a lot of Wikidata-related content was rejected from the main Wikimania program and redirected to the hackathon. (which I find sad because it brings Wikidata back to its status of "technical project" instead of being just a Wikimedia project among others). But I was also not involved in Wikimania's program or logistics, so I don't have much insights from the organizers point of view th [19:20:43] [telegram] The conference grid (still not released) is fairly late this year, so it's hard to tell. But I share your concerns. (re @Auregann: That's what I heard, yes: a lot of Wikidata-related content was rejected from the main Wikimania program and redirected to the h...) [21:18:07] [telegram] Hi! I didn’t see that- not sure where that came from. We are planning to record sessions if the speakers request it. When you add a session to the schedule, that is one of the fields. (re @fuzheado: BTW, I noticed in the FAQ it says that by default Hackathon sessions are not recorded. I've never quite understood why that was ...) [21:19:05] [telegram] I am trying to learn more about why certain sessions were rejected- my understanding is simply that there was an extremely high number of applications. [21:19:37] [telegram] We would LOVE WikiData sessions to present at the Hackathon. If you plan to do one and have questions, feel free to talk to me! [21:21:41] [telegram] Just fixed FAQ. Thanks for catching that!
