Define system for keeping track of what has already been uploaded

Open Daniel-Mietchen opened this issue 11 years ago • 4 comments

Kinds of uploads

  • Full text
  • images and other files
  • metadata

It may be important to also signal whether the upload was by one of our tools, or by someone else (especially if that predates our upload attempt, see also #8 ).

What I have in mind here is basically a list (ideally cross-wiki) of most cited DOIs, along with standardized indications of

  • what their license is
  • whether the full text is on Wikisource
  • whether the images are on Commons
  • whether the metadata is on Wikidata (and synced with CrossRef), where we could also keep track of citations from Wikimedia projects, and of changes from CrossRef (e.g. after a correction or retraction)
  • whether any other materials are on Wikimedia projects (e.g. quotes on Wikiquote)
  • whether any of the uploads failed (e.g. due to file size limits, conversion issues), along with a link to the relevant bug

Putting on the agenda (#74) for today's meeting.

Yeah, basically the options that look OK, are using a BEACON or some sort of MongoDB serializer.

Should be discussed at our next meeting - adding #74.

The conclusion of this was broadly to:

Log everything that happens in the code. Publically make available those logs (either on wiki or through another web service). Then we have a signal-noise filtering problem which is easier to deal with.
