Ideas for ResearchBot Functionality

The bot should automate as many aspects of possible of my little research project, with the intention of lowering the bar for editors / users who may wish to help out. This spot is intended to figure out its desired functionality.

Diff Grabbing

Getting diff.s three months apart on various articles is a core component of the bot.

• Will have to check that the article has been around for at least x
• Needs to vary the specific date grabs to avoid bias
• should there be some model to vary the age of articles?
• should distinguish / record GA / FA ( / DYK?) milestones

Front End

• Ideally, should create a form / subpage to allow any editor to 'grade' the article
• Record how many graded by individuals? (motivation / reward etc.)

Results Processing

• Results stored somehow (duh!)
• Possible Graph functions? - export to other platform?
• Manage 'reviewers'? - eventually some sort of trust rating??
