Feature for users to flag photos in the wrong department or that are not helpful

Open ssempervirens opened this issue 7 years ago • 7 comments

A volunteer reported that there are pictures of officers in the wrong police departments. Users should be able to flag inaccurate information for review by admins

Feedback from user:

Being able to flag photos either as not helpful because they are too blurry for the user, or if they are from the wrong department etc, instead of the randomized assortment (there are 5-10 photos that I can't do anything with that I have to skip multiple times through in order to get to a new image). Would probably be helpful if there was a dropdown as to why the user was flagging an image.

Cross-linking with #413 - these are closely related and could be implemented together.

OK, so we need some reasons for flagging. I've got: For tags:

  • incorrect officer ID
  • too blurry / not useful for identification

For images:

  • incorrect department
  • photo doesn't have cops in it
  • photo too blurry / not useful Anything else?

I'm also thinking we'll need a way for admins to review flagged images, with an easy option to delete the tag/image.

So I guess there are three stages where there might be inaccurate content:

Volunteer classifying images

  • incorrect department
  • photo too blurry / not useful
  • (the photo not having cops in it at this stage is what the classification routes handle)

Volunteer viewing classified images for the purpose of tagging

  • photo too blurry / not useful
  • photo doesn't actually have cops (classified incorrectly)
  • photo is in wrong department (it might not get noticed until this point)

Person browsing cops and as such seeing only tags (faces mapped to cops)

  • incorrect officer ID
  • tag is not actually of a cop at all (this one is pretty bad as it means we need to disable someone's account)
  • photo too blurry / not useful

am I missing anything obvious @camfassett ?

Not sure if this should fall under "photo not useful" but what is to do about reporting improperly angled/rotated images like this?: https://www.openoversight.com/officer/12035

Would this feature optimally be an email alert to admins, or rather show up as a notification for admins logged into the OO webapp? cc @redshiftzero @McEileen

I don't have a strong preference. Jen?
