It's been almost 2 months since we finished the "Glossary Project". (Which was really "part 1" of the project - define all missing glossary entries.)
I was kind of working on a few different things in the meantime - trying to get a feel for what might just naturally fall in to place next. I didn't notice any one thing taking over. So.... that means it's time for me to spearhead the next task.
But, it doesn't come without me already tracking some stats (of course!). And I'm going to take a vote (since election day is right around the corner for the USA) on which area you'd like to see us tackle next.
Here are the areas I've been tracking: Missing Dates of Birth (DOBs), Missing Checklists, Name Validation, & Team Validation.
Missing DOBs - Currently at 40,449 missing - 2 weeks ago at 40,560
Mising Checklists - Currently at 10,218 - 2 wks: 10,163 - 2 months: 11,290
Name Validation - Currently at 17,162 - 1 week ago at 17,047 (yes, it's going UP)
Team Validation - Currently at 55,839 - 1 week ago at 56,559
I have a method to find and clean up the sets that have no names or teams missing and clear them out. I just started on the Team ones and haven't touched the Names yet. So, those numbers could actually be misleading at this point.
Honestly, I'm not sure any of these 4 can ever get to 100% completion, but we can certainly get better than where we are now. Like I said, I've been doing a little here, a little there (while still keeping a close eye on the missing glossary entries). I want to know which of these 4 areas you'd like to help with and clean up first. (I'm assuming we'll get through them all eventually.) OK, Vote! :)
- Checklists
- DOBs
- Names
- Teams
Thanks!
PS: I will cast my vote in this as well. But just not yet. I don't want my vote to swing anyone else's. I have my vote ready.
