Over a period of few months there has been active Development of Multilingual,
usable and effective captchas for GSOC 2014.But currently it seems that there
is no technical and primary mentor for the project. Therefore I Request all
members to please have a thought about becoming a part of this project as
primary technical mentor.

Hello,
I have been a frequent contributor to mediawiki.and as a part of
contribution process is looking for project for upcoming Google Summer Of Code
2014 as mentoined in bug 32695 and prototype developed by Pginer
my idea for the project is:

  Develop a captcha service with wikimedia
commons images this captcha service 
 will comprise of some custom question with
random keyword 1 and 2 ...upon selection of 
 random keyword 1, a question will be generated
along with images fetched from commons
 database,also there will be few images from
another keyword 2 which will show some
  images which will be not related to the
question we can also take help of image
 annotations as mentioned here
(https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Vitraux_de_la_basilique_Notre-Dame,_Genève_23.jpg).

I therefore request you all to place comment into my idea regarding the project
as i am really interested to work for this challenging but amazing project :) .

Eagerly Waiting for your reply.

This should probably go to a wikipage where you explain your idea and where
people could comment. Bugzilla might not be the best place for a lenghty
discussion. Feel free to paste a link here as a comment.

Also, Aalekh, this bug is about Wikisource (scanned books) images, a CAPTCHA
from Commons images would need a separate bugzilla report.

Actually this was a simple idea for way to handle the project..since
commons is a part of wikiso my idea is that it might just act as an

Hi, this project is still listed at 
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects#Multilingual.2C_usable_and_effective_captchas
 

Should this project be still listed in that page? If not, please remove it. If
it still makes sense, then it could be moved to the Featured projects section
if it has community support and mentors.

I don't understand if that was clear enough, but there isn't any developer
working on this project. The contributions Cristian and Alex can make are what
they already did and mention: make a proof-of-concept and investigating
specifications for interaction with Wikisource, DjVu and so on.

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.

Hello, this is a quasi-automated-but-not-really message:

I am reviewing all tracking bugs for extensions to review and deploy to WMF
servers. See the list here:
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=31235hide_resolved=1

The [[mw:Review queue]] page lists the steps necessary to complete the review.
I have copied them below and done some initial filling out based on what I can
easily gleen from this bug and any linked to sources that are obvious. If I
miss something/state something false, please do correct me.

Also, if you haven't yet done so, please review the information on and linked
to from:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Writing_an_extension_for_deployment


== TODO/Check list ==
Extension page on mediawiki.org: no?
Bugzilla component: no?
Extension in Gerrit: in github, please transfer to gerrit
Design Review: not yet done (see comment 8
Archeticecture/Performance Review: some
Security Review: no?
Screencast (if applicable): no
Community support: seems to be the initial beginnings of (at least some of the
tech community)

Other than the obvious things above that are 'no's, what else can I/WMF help
with here to move it along?

Hi everyone,

   As Alessandro said, the words that should be chosen for CAPTCHA from the
DjVu layer should be chosen on the basis of their confidence level. 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.

--- 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.

Anything less than the current 25 % failure would be an improvement, though
over 1 % a captcha is considered broken (according to the paper on

To answer to the open questions:

(In reply to comment #5)
 *how would data propogate back to wikisource.

I don't see that it is practically possible to propagate data back to
Wikisource. Rather, this would be used to perform initial OCR for Wikisource,
perhaps primarily for works where machine-based OCR would be ineffective.

 *is this even effective as a captcha

I don't see that it would be any less effective than the current captcha.

 **the dataset used to generate the images are publically available. It is
 unclear that the dataset is large enough that someone downloading the entire
 thing wouldn't happen.

Actual dataset used on Wikipedia doesn't need to be publicly available.

 **an attacker could add entries to the dataset. Im not sure how exploitable
 that is, but its something that is concerning

I don't see how could an attacker add entries to the dataset. Actual dataset
used on Wikipedia would probably be tightly controlled.

 **its unclear this will actually prevent spam. Computers do not get bored.

 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. It is
unclear that the dataset is large enough that someone downloading the entire
thing wouldn't happen.
**an attacker could add entries to the dataset. Im not sure how exploitable
that is, but its something that is concerning
**its unclear this will actually prevent spam. Computers do not get bored. 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. (Not sure if this is true).

This is a very nice idea! What is the status? Would a Google Summer of Code
project help getting a MediaWiki extension running and polished, ready to be
used in any MediaWiki enabled site?

Another question would be whether this extension is put in use in Wikimedia
sites.

If the idea makes sense and there is at least one mentor available I would like
to push it as a candidate to 

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects

and move it to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Summer_of_Code_2013#Project_ideas
