Popular 2.0

^InpuUpUaut:iconInpuUpUaut: reports, February 13, 2008
ESPAÑOL:

Hablé con el programador y me explicó que la idea no era cambiar nada sino arreglarlo, pero continuar mostrando a los más populares. No estoy muy de acuerdo con eso ya que entra en un círculo vicioso que solo potencia más la popularidad de los más populares y opaca a los que recién empiezan o tienen pocas visitas, sin tener en cuenta talento ni nada. De todas formas, tengo que decir que el algoritmo que están usando ahora funciona perfectamente para lo que quieren.

Este algoritmo trabaja de forma proporcional. Si del 100% de las imágenes subidas, 25% son fotos, van a aparecer un 25% de fotos en la exposición de populares. Así, con todas las categorías. De esta forma, cada categoría va a ser mostrada de forma justa, tomando como parámetro la cantidad de trabajos publicados en cada sección.

En la versión anterior en cambio, solo se tomaba como parámetro la cantidad de favoritos en cada trabajo. Por lo tanto, y como era de esperar, las categorías de manga/anime eran las que casi siempre aparecían.

PERO...

Él me dijo que no lo había pensado mucho pero que otras personas y yo, lo habíamos hecho pensar que sería interesante ensanchar la variedad de artistas y categorías para mostrar. Por lo tanto... Quizás... Queda algo de esperanza ^_^

A seguir pensando como mejorar que al fin y al cabo este es nuestro lugar! Y como tal, somos nosotros los que tenemos que mejorarlo!! ^_^

----

ENGLISH:

I have talked with the programmer and he told me that the idea was not to change anything but to fix it, but keeping the idea of the popular.
I do not agree too much with that idea because it is a bad loop which only increase the difference between popular and not popular people without thinking in the quality of the art. Anyway, I have to say that the algo he is using works perfectly for the function they want it to do.

This algo works in a proportional way. If in the 100% of the images/texts uploaded, 25% are photography, there will be 25% of photography in exposition in popular. That, with all the categories. This way, every category will be shown in a fair way, using as a parameter the quantity of works published in each section.

In the former version instead, the only parameter was the quantity of faves in each work. So, and it was not a surprise, the categories of manga/anime were almost always the exposed.

BUT...

He said exactly this:
"I have not thought about it much, but you and others do make me think that an alternate ordering that really tries to broaden exposure to variety of art and artist would be interesting."

So... Maybe... There is some hope... ^_^

Lets keep thinking how to make this better because this place is ours! And as it is, we are the people who must make it better!! ^_^
