I would like to be a moderator! It might be a good idea to post this publicly 
somewhere too; I've encountered a number of KDE users who have asked how they 
can help clean up store.kde.org content. We could even make this a new entry 
point on https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved.

Will it be possible to curate-separate things that are not compatible 
with Plasma 5? There's a lot of ancient stuff out there that's 10 years 
old and really shouldn't show up as available in the KNewStuff offerings 
for Plasma 5.13. Icon sets are the most visible example.

Re: Help us with curating store.kde.org

2018-07-17 Thread Dan Leinir Turthra Jensen
It will be, yes. Initially we can simply mark it to not show up on Plasma 
clients (that is what the two patches linked from the task here are about: 
https://phabricator.kde.org/T6133 ). Later we will be able to add dependency 
and version information, but for now we can simply mark the things that are 
not useable from the Get New X dialogues. Indeed, that is an important part of 
the curating process: The data will still be visible on the website, but with 
those patches we become able to hide things that don't make sense in e.g. 
Plasma :)

  Thanks! :D Right, so the way we'll be doing the assigning of the rights is 
that we open a task on the KDE Store phab[1], that way we can also keep it 
open and whatnot. It's also the way work is managed in the store team, so it 
just seems the sensible way of doing it :)

OK, I've got my access now. Do we have any sort of documentation for the 
moderation process? I don't want to break anything. Like Scott, what I'm most 
interested in right now is identifying old content indended for KDE4 that no 
longer works in Plasma 5 and/or Frameworks 5 so we can make it not show up for 
current users of recent KDE software.

Re: Help us with curating store.kde.org

2018-07-19 Thread Scott Harvey
Hey Nicolas!

Although I haven’t (yet) committed to helping out on this project, I’m still 
offering my opinions.

Personally, I wouldn’t like to see the store curators judging the submissions 
on quality. Our personal tastes might influence our decisions. It would be like 
an art museum curator not displaying a work because he doesn’t think anyone 
would like it.

I think the curators should focus on keeping the store clean of things that 
_don’t work_, look out for obvious copies of other people’s code, etc.

If someone puts up something that’s “stupid” or worthless, it’ll get voted down 
by other users. My own two Plasmoids are hovering at exactly 2.5 stars each. 
Maybe they’re not so useful after all. :D

Hey Dan,

We (promo people) were wondering... Would it help if we gave this a push on 
social media? I know you probably don't want to manage an army of 100s of 
moderators, but if there is a place, a mail address or something, where the 
general public can send messages telling you about problematic stuff they have 
found within the store, it may be helpful, right?

What do you think?

Cheers

Paul

  Great! Send me your opendesktop.org user ID (the number in the URL if your

  We are not curators in that sense, that is what the voting system is for. Of 
course, we can certainly give comments to the authors, just like any other 
community member, but being a moderator does /not/ give us any right to think 
our view on the fluffier concepts is any more worthy than others (as Scott 
also comments on).
  The only quality note which this moderation is supposed to be for is 
technical quality. Say, for example, an item is in fact an icon theme, but 
isn't packaged in a way that Plasma can consume - that is still an icon theme 
and should stay downloadable from the website, but it makes no sense to see it 
in the Get New Icon Themes dialogue, and so we can mark it as excluded from 
GHNS.
  This is also, of course, why we need both guidelines and instructions for 
moderators, so we can avoid confusion about responsibilities and whatnot :)

  That is precisely (and once we've got actual, written instructions also 
explicitly) what the curators are suppose dto be doing. Incidentally, 
everybody is already able to do the checks for spam and malicious/illegal 
content, which you only need to be logged in as a user to be able to do. That 
functionality is in the Details box on the right hand side of any product's 
page.

  Exactly, the curators are there to help ensure that the stuff that shows up 
Plasma and other apps' dialogues will, in fact, work. Just because we might 
possibly think something is dumb doesn't mean there isn't loads of people out 
there who might very well appreciate a bit of that exact flavour of dumb in 
their lives, and they should totally be allowed to go for it ;)

  Hey Paul :)

  There is, in fact, methods built into the website already where anybody with 
an opendesktop.org account can report both spam and malicious content. It 
would be quite useful to have that information spread around a bit, yes :) 
Specifically, this is done by clicking the report links in the Details panel 
(see screenshot), and the reports are then handled by the opendesktop.org 
team.
  If you mean something which they've found that needs the moderation team to 
look at it, then no, there isn't anything yet, But we ought to be able to put 
a way together to just flag items for the moderation team's interest, because 
yes, that certainly would be handy :)

  That community involvement is the entire point of opendesktop.org :D

Doesn't the moderation team look at reports for spam that are sent in?

Okay, so we'll direct people to opendesktop too, and kill two birds with one 
stone.
