The Wikimedia Foundation will be holding a referendum to gather more input into the development and usage of an opt-in personal image hiding feature, which will allow readers to voluntarily screen particular types of images strictly for their own accounts. Such a feature was requested by the Board of Trustees in June 2011.
Further details and educational materials are available on these pages. The referendum is scheduled for August 15–30, 2011, and will be conducted on servers hosted by Software in the Public Interest.
পটভূমি
[edit]The Board of Trustees has directed the Wikimedia Foundation to develop and implement a personal image hiding feature.
Its purpose is to enable readers to easily hide images on the Wikimedia projects that they do not wish to view, either when first viewing the image or ahead of time through individual preference settings. The feature is intended to benefit readers by offering them more choice, and to that end it will be made as user-friendly and simple as possible. We will also make it as easy as possible for editors to support.
The feature will be developed for, and implemented on, all projects. It will not permanently remove any images: it will only hide them from view on request. For its development, we have created a number of guiding principles, but trade-offs will need to be made throughout the development process. In order to aid the developers in making those trade-offs, we are asking you to help us assess the importance of each by taking part in this referendum.
কেনো এটি গুরুত্বপূর্ণ?
[edit]In the 2010 Harris report, two of the recommendations (7 & 9) were to create a way for readers to hide images they did not want to see; and that there be an option for readers to hide all potentially-controversial content.
There are several rationales for a feature like this. Images of sexuality and violence are necessary components of Wikimedia projects for them to fulfill their mandates to be open, free and educational. However, these images – of genital areas and sexual practices on the one hand, or mass graves and mutilated corpses on the other – will inevitably still have the power to disturb some viewers, especially if they are children, or if they are happened upon unintentionally. The point of the opt-in personal image hiding feature is to help alleviate that surprise and dismay, by making the images unavailable for viewing without a second command. Often, within the Wikimedia world, this is referred to as the principle of least astonishment, or least surprise.
On the other hand, we believe that this command should only delay the presentation of these images, not prevent the presentation of these images. Access to information on WMF sites should be compromised only as little as need be to satisfy our responsibilities to respect and serve all our audiences. A shuttered, rather than a completely hidden, image satisfies those responsibilities.
কী প্রশ্ন করা হবে?
[edit]On a scale of 0 to 10, if 0 is strongly opposed, 5 is neutral and 10 is strongly in favor, you will be asked to give your view of the following:
- It is important for the Wikimedia projects to offer this feature to readers.
- It is important that the feature be usable by both logged-in and logged-out readers.
- It is important that hiding be reversible: readers should be supported if they decide to change their minds.
- It is important that individuals be able to report or flag images that they see as controversial, that have not yet been categorized as such.
- It is important that the feature allow readers to quickly and easily choose which types of images they want to hide (e.g., 5-10 categories), so that people could choose for example to hide sexual imagery but not violent imagery.
- It is important that the feature be culturally neutral: as much as possible, it should aim to reflect a global or multi-cultural view of what imagery is potentially controversial.
You will also have the option of saying that you do not have sufficient information to answer.
ইমেজ হাইডারটি দেখতে কেমন হবে?
[edit]As development of the image hider has not begun yet, only early mock-ups and designs are available. These are subject to change based on the outcome of the referendum and the realities of feature development, but it's likely that the final product would look very similar to these mock-ups. These mock-ups assume three main ways that readers will be able to adjust these settings: from the navigation, from a displayed image, and from a hidden image. These screenshots show how the hider might look to an anonymous user.
