I mean, the edit notes are stored but they're a bit more hidden

Once we have release attributes in the same way we have work attributes now, the IDs can go there

If the importer always stores it the same way, maybe it can even be moved with a bot again later

logstash itself is great for that as well (like remote syslog)

reosarevok: "And the "comment"/disambiguation isn't the right place :)" - the annotation would be the "most right" place right now.

I said that! :p

2016-05-01 12215, 2016

Followed by the fact the field sometimes labeled "comment", i.e. the disambiguation, isn't the right place, because they mentioned a "comments field" :p
2016-05-01 12230, 2016

reosarevok, you love me, even though I'm terrible. <3
Freso, the part that's making me grumpy is the part in the lobes theme.less that imports the API's CSS, which is getting pulled in during our build process and timing out much of the time.

reosarevok: By you liking https://community.metabrainz.org/t/auto-editor-el… , I assume you'd be willing to be the one sending out the 3+ e-mail notifications for each autoeditor election until the tickets get fixed?
2016-05-01 12241, 2016
reosarevok
If I had DB access, I'd be happy to :p
2016-05-01 12238, 2016
reosarevok
(or a list of the emails, anyway)
2016-05-01 12204, 2016
reosarevok
I don't think there's any need for 3+ notifications either
2016-05-01 12237, 2016
reosarevok
If someone can't find enough seconders for an election to start before the mailings via IRC or whatever, the election is probably not that likely to work anyway...
2016-05-01 12248, 2016
reosarevok
So just one notification "hey this election is on" should be enough IMO
2016-05-01 12214, 2016
Freso
You can probably ask bitmap or Gentlecat or zas to make the dump for you. Remember to use BCC's so we don't share editors' e-mails.
2016-05-01 12237, 2016
Freso
3 notifications: Election opened, seconders needed; seconders found, open for voting; voting closed, results.
2016-05-01 12217, 2016
Freso
The "open for voting" one should be sent out ASAP after it happening, to ensure voters get the full time to vote and discuss the election.
2016-05-01 12256, 2016
Freso is very much not a fan of this approach
2016-05-01 12214, 2016
reosarevok
I'm not a fan, but also not a fan of delaying it until someone maybe has time to fix it
2016-05-01 12246, 2016
reosarevok
And we're inconveniencing editors who would easily get elected for their every edit, which seems worse to me than me having to send a few emails
2016-05-01 12225, 2016
reosarevok
Of course I'd much rather just scrape autoeditorship and auto-apply edits, but in the meantime...
2016-05-01 12203, 2016
Freso
Perhaps we could get https://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/OTHER-254 done and then ask proposers to open a topic there when they start an election, then you could send out an e-mail pointing to that thread.
2016-05-01 12227, 2016
reosarevok
That sounds useful. What does it involve?
2016-05-01 12240, 2016
Freso
If any AEs log in to Discourse and don't have access, they can ping me (or zas (or bitmap?)) and we can manually add them to the group until we get it automated.
2016-05-01 12243, 2016
reosarevok
(do we have this "check-on-login for autoeditor status" thing set up already?)
2016-05-01 12253, 2016
Freso
No.
2016-05-01 12203, 2016
Freso
If so, lots of people would already be in the AE group.
2016-05-01 12210, 2016
reosarevok
Oh, so you mean just a one-off manual add to the group?
2016-05-01 12217, 2016
Freso
Yes.
2016-05-01 12219, 2016
reosarevok
That's reasonable I guess
2016-05-01 12234, 2016
reosarevok
(I'm not sure how discourse groups work, so I had no idea if I even was in that one yet :p )
2016-05-01 12242, 2016
Freso
So we get all AEs that are currently on Discourse added to the AE group.
2016-05-01 12256, 2016
Freso
I haven't added anyone to the group, as I wanted to it be done in an automated fashion.
Is it supposed to happen that Deleted_Editor_XXXX still has a discourse account?
2016-05-01 12241, 2016
Freso
reosarevok: Yes, I believe so.
2016-05-01 12210, 2016
Freso
It was brought up when we implemented the Discourse SSO endpoint at least.
2016-05-01 12211, 2016
reosarevok
Ok then :)
2016-05-01 12227, 2016
Freso
All new accounts are also automatically added.
2016-05-01 12237, 2016

And whenever someone edits their e-mail address.
2016-05-01 12239, 2016

But yeah, this is also why I imagined OTHER-254 to be automated. Get a dump from MBS and run it against API or db for Discourse.
2016-05-01 12226, 2016
Freso
reosarevok: The thing is that they should all really be set to also Watch the AE category on Discourse.

2016-05-01 12255, 2016

Is there an automated way for when we change it to automatic?
2016-05-01 12213, 2016
reosarevok
Or is it a problem either way?
2016-05-01 12221, 2016
Freso
Don't know.
2016-05-01 12252, 2016
Freso
I guess we can keep OTHER-254 open for now and do an automated run once the other things are in place.
2016-05-01 12224, 2016
Freso
(In case any AE logs in without requesting access to the group between now and then.)
2016-05-01 12240, 2016

Maybe this is blog post worthy?
2016-05-01 12237, 2016

New temp. AE election system:
2016-05-01 12247, 2016
Freso
1) Proposer creates elections and adds post in AE category.
2016-05-01 12225, 2016
Freso
2) You mail out to all AEs with a link to the election topic (and a link to the blog post, if we make one, to explain the current situation?).
2016-05-01 12216, 2016
reosarevok
(I was going to agree, but after seeing the number of votes it already has, I think it's honestly pointless to cancel. It will probably end up with as many votes as a lot of recent elections as it is)
2016-05-01 12220, 2016
Freso
3) Proposer/you/me/AEs update the thread when status of the election changes (2nders found, passed, rejected).
2016-05-01 12223, 2016

I think the system is fine, yeah :)

reosarevok: I guess the primary thing I see about the current election is that for all anyone knows, he's only contacted AEs likely to be in favour of the election.
2016-05-01 12225, 2016
reosarevok
I mean, the first time he was rejected I was the main person against it :p
2016-05-01 12206, 2016
reosarevok
But yeah, I can see that as a worry... except that if we're getting basically half of our active autoeditors as voters, I think it's likely to be irrelevant even if not everyone was contacted
2016-05-01 12212, 2016
Freso
I just see so many legitimate arguments that could be made against loujine getting accepted (or rejected) via this election that I'd feel better if it was done in a standardised way (like it used to).
