I'm not exactly sure why a design review would be needed at this stage. The design is probably going to look very much like what the current captcha looks like, since its mostly proposed replacing the backend, not the front end. /me still thinks my questions in comment 5 aren't sufficiently answered. I'd like answers to the tune of we know this will be a good idea because of X, not we think we couldn't possibly do worse than the current system, because the current system sucks so much (Which I wouldn't bet on). Heck I'd even settle for a concrete description (something that could actually be evaluated) of what folks working on this even plan to do. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

The confidence level of words shall be decided by the ProofreadPage extension itself. Words with high penalty would be used for CAPTCHA. I would also suggest not using the words in their complete sense, but mixing two high penalty words together. Presently, ProofreadPage extension doesn't have the facilities to do so. The spell checker( which would use the word penalty ) would be implemented after the integration with VisualEditor has been done. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32695 --- Comment #9 from Alessandro Brollo alex.bro...@gmail.com --- I'm exploring a new and IMHO interesting path: to ignore djvu text layer, and toparse (both to extract naked text layer and some interesting parameters) from abbyy.xml file. This file (really heavy and discouraging at a firs glance) is published by Internet Archive into its file download area. The interesting thing is, that that heavy file contains both coordinates of words, and an interesting 'wordPenalty' parameter, something like a uncertainty score for the whole word; but there's too a character-by-character score of certainty score. I'm sharing scripts with http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Rtdwivedi, who is MUCH skilled than me, since the idea is to upload text layer from abbyy.xml file and to wrap uncertain words into a span tag, making them easy to be fized by VisualEditor. A test output of extracring scripts can be seen into any page of http://it.wikisource.org/wiki/Indice:Ricordi_di_Londra.djvu, where words with a wordPenalty 0 are red; unluckily VisualEditor doesn't run presently in wikisource, but you can test the resulting code with VisualEditor in a wikipedia sandbox. I presume that similar scripts, using abbyy.xml files, could extract lists of uncertain words and their images from abbyy.xml file and related scans and feed a CAPTCHA engine. My suggestion is, to ask Rtdwivedi for comments; personally I feel myself curious, bold and sometimes lucky, but very far from a programmer. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

I don't see that it is practically possible to propagate data back to Wikisource.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32695 --- Comment #5 from Bawolff (Brian Wolff) bawolff...@gmail.com --- (In reply to comment #3) Alex, it looks like WikiCAPTCHA awaits a design review https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/WMF_Project_Design_Review_Process before we can move forward with deploying it on Wikimedia sites. Just wanted to let you know. Thanks. The code looks to be an early prototype. I only did a five minute read through but it looks to be a proof of concept, not a feature complete implementation. Open questions about this whole idea: *how would data propogate back to wikisource. *is this even effective as a captcha **the dataset used to generate the images are publically available.

Even with 1% getting through, it would not be effective. This is using texts that ocr software marked as low confidence, which sounds significantly weaker than what recaptcha does according to wikipedia and ive heard rumours that recaptcha is not entirely effective.
