Proposal: Community Audit of Monthly App Mining Rankings #50
Comments
Should the quality of the quality of the reviewer be audited as well? |
@friedger are you thinking on a reviewer by reviewer basis or in the selection of the auditor? |
@GinaAbrams I was thinking about reviewing the quality of the reviewers score as part of the audit. Not about the selection of the auditor. |
The game theorist's paper includes some possible methods for reviewing the reviewers. However, this issue is about making sure we've done calculations correctly based on the raw data. Determining if a reviewer is doing a good job is part of our normal feedback process, which can be done in this Github and our app mining community meetings. |
Ok - so to recap, this is about wanting to reduce errors in the actual calculations of scores. Not really related to 'meta-comments' about how scores 'should' be, more so making sure we are converting the raw data to rankings correctly. We are leaning towards having a single community member be invited to review these calculations (in the form of a spreadsheet), and having a day or two of audit time before publishing the full rankings and doing payouts. Do community members have any feeling about who this person should be? |
Alternately @hstove, you could just announce preliminary results and release the data for the app community to review for a day before they become official? (Removes the burden/extra process of selecting a person each month.) |
I may be stating the obvious, but preliminary reviews will need to include any methodology/calculations used. The formulas are in the spreadsheet cells, but there should be language around how/why the calculations are the way they are. I had a discussion today with an app miner about the difference between the scores displayed on the TryMyUI site and the spreadsheet. |
Thanks @dantrevino, agree with you there 🙏. For April and moving forward we are going to release the sheet of results two business days ahead of payments so that the community can review. This could change down the line, but is a start. Going to close this soon unless there are any objections. |
In its current state, there is some opacity around the app mining rankings and the payouts until after the payouts are complete. Would like to add a community QA element before the payouts are done.
Open question is methodology:
