I like how my message to try abandoning captcha entirely came up with a myriad of complaints how we can be smart, enable new captcha which is unique, etc.
Let's measure the impact. Could someone kindly please do some metrics on these cases after a user opened an edit box: - edit saved without a captcha - edit attempted to save, faced with captcha, didn't bother entering it and gave up - edit attempted to save, faced with captcha, attempted to save again without entering it, gave up - edit attempted to save, faced with captcha, attempted it once, succeeded - edit attempted to save, faced with captcha, attempted it once, failed, gave up - edit attempted to save, faced with captcha, attempted it twice, got it right on second try, saved the edit - ... (x3, x4, x5) As I heard there were some "A/B" tests and such, and I imagine they could be capable of getting this information. -- svetlana On Thu, 4 Dec 2014, at 10:14, David Gerard wrote: > On 3 December 2014 at 23:08, Ryan Kaldari <rkald...@wikimedia.org> wrote: > > > Surely we can come up with a creative idea that is: > > * Easy for humans to solve > > * Can't be solved by out-of-the-box captcha breakers > > * Isn't trivial for programmers to solve > > > * isn't an abomination for accessibility > > > - d. > > _______________________________________________ > Wikitech-l mailing list > Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org > https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
