For each data point (gender, edit count, account age, user groups), we need to figure out whether the exposure of each (and collectively) should be: * displayed to anons and/or logged-in users; * configurable on a per-user basis (like I can check a box to display to the world what's known about me or disable this display on my user and user talk pages); and * configurable on a per-wiki basis (like an individual wiki can say to expose this data on user pages or not). And for each of these three bullets, I think you need to figure out what level of granularity you want to implement. That is, you could itemize the data points and allow users or wikis to opt in or opt out of displaying certain data points to anonymous users or logged-in users. Or you could make it all or none. I'm not sure whether this level of complexity is desired or warranted, but I think it could be. I'm not clear what level of support or opposition there is to the general idea of profiling users on their own user pages. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
