Enquête 2015 sur les souhaits de la communauté/Catégories

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki
This page is a translated version of the page Community Wishlist Survey 2015/Categories and the translation is 100% complete.

Checklist/filtre pour les articles/catégories

Prenez une catégorie remplie d'articles promotionnels, par exemple en:Category:United States company stubs. À l'heure actuelle, il n'existe aucun moyen de marquer de façon collaborative (ou non) les articles dont un contributeur a vérifié l'admissibilité, par exemple. Il serait bien plus simple de faire du nettoyage et autre s'il était possible d'avoir des filtres pouvant être basculés rapidement entre les états « fait » et « pas fait ». Par exemples, chaque article pourrait avoir une liste de points à vérifier : « admissibilité vérifiée, neutralité vérifiée, etc. » (il faudrait que la communauté puisse créer de telles catégories d'évaluation, probablement associées à des problèmes de maintenance courants). Un contributeur avec un droit spécial (ou peut-être juste un contributeur autoconfirmé) pourrait marquer l'article comme traité après relecture. Cela pourrait être visible pour les lecteurs de l'article, ce qui augmenterait la confiance qu'ils accordent au contenu (voir ma proposition ci-dessus), et ce serait pratique pour conduire des opérations de nettoyage, étant donné que je pourrais activer un filtre afin de n'afficher que les articles non relus dans la catégorie. En substance, ce serait semblable à la fonctionnalité des modifications en attente, mais en moins invasif. --Piotrus (talk) 05:34, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestions de catégories d'après le nom de fichier, la description et le lieu

Pour de nombreux utilisateurs et en particulier pour les débutants, il est difficile de trouver rapidement les catégories appropriés pour les fichiers. Pour aider les utilisateurs, je suggère de mettre au point un algorithme qui suggèrerait des catégories en comparant le nom du fichier, la description et le lieu avec ceux d'autres fichiers, catégories et galeries de Commons. Même Wikidata et Wikipédia pourraient être inclus. Avec un tel algorithme, UploadWizard pourrait être amélioré afin de suggérer des catégories pour les nouveaux fichiers. De plus, il serait possible de générer une liste de maintenance ou même un jeu afin d'enrichir les fichiers déjà importés mais pas encore catégorisés. --Aschroet (talk) 18:56, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Page contenant un texte mais n'étant pas dans cette catégorie ni ses descendants (jusqu'au niveau n)

J'adorerais avoir un moyen de rechercher les pages de fichiers (et les pages de catégorie) qui contiennent un fragment de texte donné mais qui ne sont pas dans une catégorie donnée ni ses descendants jusqu'au niveau n. Les pages trouvées seraient bien sûr de bons candidats pour être ajoutée à la catégorie ou à ses sous-catégories. L'idéal serait que cela soit rendu disponible dans VFC ; si ça ne peut être fait du côté de VFC, une catégorie de maintenance temporaire pourraient être ajoutée aux pages trouvées lors d'une telle recherche, et VFC pourrait être lancé sur cette catégorie.

Cela aiderait les gens qui essayent de catégoriser des photos mal catégorisées. Pour l'instant, le processus nécessite de passer en revue un grand nombre de photos qui sont déjà bien catégorisées. - Jmabel (talk) 23:03, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Neutral Neutral This can be done today using AutoWikiBrowser's "List comparer". People should try using that before asking for this to be built into the wiki software. Stevie is the man! TalkWork 15:30, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Oppose Oppose this can (almost) be done today in mediawiki, using the "incategory:" search words, as explained in my long comment above. the only missing piece is the ability to extend it to sub-categories, and it makes zero sense to limit such an extension to "negative filtering" only. adding a new search filtering that will extend "incategory:" to "insubcategory:" will be a very very welcome enhancement, with or without the "to the n-th level" addition. peace - קיפודנחש (talk) 17:12, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Comment Comment for the category itself, this capability already exists (though, not well advertised), at least for Cirrus search: all the search keywords (and specifically, "incategory") support both positive and negative filtering, so if you want to look for "abra-kadabra" in all pages *except* the ones in category "Magicians", you search -incategory:Magicians "abra-kadabra".
    so this request boils down to "extend existing search negative-filtering of categories, to sub-categories also".
    this does not make sense: search filtering to sub-categories is long-desired feature, but it doesn't make sense to support it for "negative filtering" only.
    i would rephrase this request as "add a new search keyword to search in category and all its sub-categories, and make sure the new keyword supports negative filtering (like any other keyword)". sorry for butting in in an inappropriate place, but this request was not vetted enough, and as it is, makes no sense. peace - קיפודנחש (talk) 17:12, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Créer un outil pour remplir automatiquement les catégories via Wikidata ou par comparaison avec un autre wiki

Actuellement, quand une nouvelle catégorie est créée, il n'y a pas de moyen simple de générer une liste d'articles existant sur d'autres wikis avec lesquels elle pourrait être remplie même si elle est reliée à Wikidata et à des catégories équivalentes dans d'autres langues. En même quand quelqu'un dispose d'une telle liste, les catégories doivent être ajoutées manuellement aux articles. J'aimerais avoir un outil qui génère de telles listes et permet de remplir les catégories à partir de celles-ci de façon aussi simple que sur Commons avec commons:Help:Gadget-Cat-a-lot.

Earlier discussion and endorsements
If we add articles to categories based on wikidata properties then we have the job of continuing to synchronise wikidata and the category and what do we do with manual changes to the category. Better to go to dynamic lists (i.e. generated on-the-fly each time) based on wikidata queries instead. This allows much more complicated cross domain lists than we would ever want to do with a category. Filceolaire (talk) 06:15, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I do not know of any tool that could create such a list, but if somebody wants to move articles from one category to another, this person could use the Category Master. At the moment the tool only has a user interface as input channel, but it could surely be made to work on lists of articles. There are screenshots, showing its usage here. Borislav and V111P can help with the technical details. --Lord Bumbury (talk) 10:53, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Different Wikipedia languages have very different needs for categories, and not just based on size of Wikipedia. English language wikipedia has categories for churches in particular English counties, Wikimedia Commons has individual categories for thousands of English churches. Xhosa language Wikipedia might not even need a category for churches in England. WereSpielChequers (talk) 19:05, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
And then comes the category depth... Xhosa language Wikipedia could probably create category "Churches in United Kingdom" and take enwiki category with depth=10, lets say. --Edgars2007 (talk) 19:32, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Endorsed Endorsed The key to this, I think, is the use of a property such as d:Property:P360 to describe in Wikidata terms what a category contains, similar to the way that if the wikidata item for a list article has a description coded in this way, then Magnus's Reasonator viewer for Wikidata can automatically show a list of corresponding Wikidata items -- see eg Reasonator's presentation of item Q15832361 (List of female engineers). There are a couple of wrinkles that would need to be added for a Wikipedia category version: firstly, only include items for which there are actually articles in that language. So the category for English churches in Xhosa wiki might not be very long. Secondly, exclude any items that match the criteria for subcategories that exist on that wiki. So for an English county on en-wiki there might be sub-categories for churches in each of the major towns in that county -- the top level category would exclude churches in any of those towns. On a different wiki, with fewer English churches, there would probably be fewer subcategories; so the tool would therefore be putting more of the articles which did exist into the county-level category. All this would follow solely from what subcategories were defined for a particular wiki, and the wikidata description of the inclusion criteria for those categories.
The tool should probably be human-assisting, rather than fully automatic. I could see it highlighting a list of possible additions to the category, but giving the user to check or uncheck any of them before finalising the process. A second mode could suggest possible removals from the category, for any of the items that matched subcategory criteria. This would give a powerful tool for splitting categories, assisting the user to appropriately populate newly created subcategories. All of which I think could be very useful on Wikipedia right now; and the same system in future might be even more useful on Commons, once the structured-data machine-interpretable description of the topics depicted in images starts to become possible. Jheald (talk) 01:09, 11 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If this is being worked on it'll need a thorough product-level discussion about how to do this and how it interacts with other efforts like structured data for Commons. --Lydia Pintscher (WMDE) (talk) 14:20, 13 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I discussed more than one year ago this idea with a user on itWiki. We agreed it was possible, but not really urgent. it was not worth the effort to be implemented on that local level. On a platform such as itWiki I would say it is something that it is better to wait until it is stable before adopting it. That does not mean it is useless, I am just saying that there are platforms that will take bigger advantages even from a beta versions, whilst others with higher maintenance activity can simply wait. If there are really many platforms that are lacking a proper categorization structure, than I guess it is an urgent tool.--Alexmar983 (talk) 18:44, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Améliorer l'édition des catégories : activer HotCat pour tous, mais avec le mécanisme des modifications en attente

D'après mon expérience, les nouveaux contributeurs disent souvent qu'ajouter des tags aux choses (les catégoriser) est compliqué, comparé à Facebook et aux autres sites modernes. Nous avons un outil bien pratique, en:Wikipedia:HotCat, mais il n'y a pas de consensus pour qu'il soit activé par défaut car les gens craignent que les débutants créent du bazar dans les catégories. La meilleure solution que j'ai, donc, est d'essayer d'utiliser les modifications en attente (pending revisions) pour les contributeurs débutants ou anonymes. --Piotrus (talk) 05:11, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Concur with Pxos. Wikipedia categorisation is a surprisingly deep and complicated topic. HotCat is powerful and useful for experienced users, but perhaps not good to expose so prominently to those who don't know what they're doing.

Tri numérique

Tracked in Phabricator:
Task T8948

Les noms qui contiennent des nombres (ou avec des clés de tri numériques) sont actuellement triés par ordre alphabétique/ASCII, les chiffres étant traités comme les autres caractères : par exemple, « 100 » vient avant « 17 » mais après « 10 ». Cela crée du désordre dans les catégories contenant des choses avec des nombres consécutifs, comme les astéroïdes ou les adresses, à moins de mettre des clés de tris où des zéros sont ajoutés à gauche des nombres — une tâche laborieuse. Serait-il possible de trier les noms de sorte que toute suite de chiffres consécutifs soit considérée comme un nombre décimal, plutôt que d'être interprétée caractère par caractère, et de trier par valeur numérique ? Même le "Finder" de mon vieux Mac y arrive avec les noms de fichiers et de dossiers, donc ça ne doit pas être si difficile ! ;) Odysseus1479 (talk) 05:12, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Interface pour afficher les membres d'une catégorie par date

fr.wikipedia.org contient des centaines de listes d'articles récents par portail (toutes ces pages, et quelques autres mises à jour par d'autres robots). C'est le principal moyen par lequel les nouveaux articles peuvent être relus par les utilisateurs qui s'intéressent à un thème donné.

Chaque portail a sa catégorie de suivi, donc c'est certainement quelque chose qui pourrait être implémenté dans MediaWiki de manière générique. Dans l'idéal, il y aurait une page spéciale pour afficher les derniers n membres d'une catégorie et qui pourrait être inclue dans d'autres (comme Special:PrefixIndex).

Note : MediaWiki garde déjà en mémoire ces dates et elles sont disponibles via l'API. Cependant, cette requête est un peu plus complexe que le simple fait de fournir une interface utilisateur pour afficher ces données. D'après les retours sur les bots, deux contraintes supplémentaires sont que :

  • changer le DEFAULTSORT ne doit pas réinitialiser la date ;
  • un retrait de catégorie révoqué rapidement ne devrait pas réinitialiser la date.

Earlier discussion and endorsements
NB: Lists maintained by bots are used in different ways. Some users read the wikiproject page from time to time, while others the lists to there watchlist. Thus, a complementary feature request is #Add a Category watchlist, but both features are needed to replace bot-maintained lists of recent articles (for very large portals, not all users would want to watch a category with tens of new articles every day). Orlodrim (talk) 19:30, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Options to show categories sorted in further different ways

Developing from the above, it would more generally be good to be able to show categories ordered in ways other than their default sort-ordering. As well as sort by "last modification" date suggested above, on Commons it would be nice to be able to sort by date of upload, or date of underlying media creation, or date depicted in media, or by an extensible mechanism to be able to specify per-category that media in that category might have a particular sort key or keys (eg original page number), different from the original sort order.

  1. Comment Comment Timestamp of what? Article creation? Addition to the tracking category? A template might be able to do what you want, plugging in the relevant timestamp as sorting key. --mfb (talk) 12:15, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    The timestamp of the addition to the tracking category (although article creation was also proposed as an option in "Earlier discussion and endorsements"). Orlodrim (talk) 21:08, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Comment Comment Assuming you mean the timestamp of when a page is added to a category, a solution of sorts is already in the works. On watchlists and recent changes pages, you'll be able to see when (and what) pages are added (or removed) from categories. Will that fulfill the needs expressed by this proposal? Stevie is the man! TalkWork 16:11, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    I think this is a complementary feature but this may not be the most practical way of doing some maintenance of new articles in the largest projects (see "Earlier discussion and endorsements"). It's hard to know in advance, in fact. Orlodrim (talk) 21:08, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  5. Support Support per Orlodrim's reply and further review. The general idea of being able to sort category members in different ways should definitely be explored, and sorting by when they were added to the category sounds very useful. Stevie is the man!

  7. Support Support if it can be done without complicating category pages for readers (i.e. the new buttons etc are only displayed to editors who've opted in). However, at least one category intersection tool already has an option to select pages in a category (and subcategories) based on when they were created/edited so it might be best to put effort into improving those tools rather than the MediaWiki UI.
