Description

Author: sumanah

Description:
see a 0-helpfulness comment show up in the wrong order

On https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ArticleFeedbackv5/Algebra I sorted the filtering by helpfulness. Given that the three helpfulness rankings that comments on this page have are 100%, 50%, and 0%, I would expect that the comments would be ranked in that order.

As shown in the screenshot, a bit of feedback that I had given ("Sumanah posted a comment. 10 minutes ago | Details".... "How would you? AFT test") that was marked "0% helpful" showed up after the 100% helpful comments, but before a 50% helpful comment!

(Note to whoever ends up fixing this...)

The current ranking is by "net helpfulness" -- number helpful minus number unhelpful -- so 1 yes / 1 no is treated the same as 0 yes / 0 no. We'll need a way of calculating net helpfulness that distinguishes between the two.

All development work on AbuseFilter v.5 (and indeed, previous versions) is halted. The project is archived, so having open tasks is inappropriate. Consequently, I'm closing all tasks.
