Showcase promoted content (FP/QI/VI) in categories and search results on Commons

  • Problem: Commons has robust procedures to highlight good content: Featured Pictures, Quality Images, and Valued Images. To an outside party, however, it is not immediately obvious how to find them (or that they exist).
  • Who would benefit: All Commons media users
  • Proposed solution: When you go to a category page, the FastCCI gadget is enabled by default to display a "Good Pictures" button, but it's not well integrated into the page, not integrated into search results, and is often broken (I have great appreciation for this gadget that I use all the time, so big thanks to its developer, Dschwen, but it could use more consistent attention). IMO it would probably be better to start from scratch to rethink how to integrate this content into category/search/other pages rather than just taking over FastCCI.

Discussion

In addition to the above proposal, c:Special:MediaSearch should maybe be a good place for an additional tab "Sort by: Quality/Featured/ect...", and why not one day a tab with "Sort by: Number of view/Number of fav./number of use/...". Also note that SDoC is promising in this topic. Christian Ferrer (talk) 19:05, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
