# Catch-up call with JC 08th June 2020;

## General aim; How should the SmartFigures Gallery look; what is the most realistic use case

- What are the incentives to use it for scientist? We have to keep that in mind besides “our” aims. (Embo aims: Get authors to annotate their own smartfigures, so sourcedata-like annotation is on them)

- SmartFigures for search – how and why would scientists use it to find relevant data (google scholar as images? Like google image search?)

- Should Sdash become more like the Sourcedata search? What are the search criteria?

- Can we get some of the already annotated smartfigures from the sourcedata data base to the SDash just to fill the gallery a bit? More or less convert some existing smartfigures to the smartfigure gallery. Is this direction of export part of the plan or only the import from SDash to Sourcedata?

## Public page: Everybody wants a public page asap - so that’s agreed on. There are still some potential issues or things that may require a change of order

- figure have to have a license and for this it also needs an author (+ title – for some legal restriction.) Thus, we need the multiple authors function, before getting a public page.

- Adding multiple authors may need a bit of thought on the UX side, since adding the same 10 authors to 20 figures is not a good UX. Can we somehow import author lists maybe from ORcid? This would entail ORCID integration also before public page.

- When a figure is set to public with multiple authors: would each author need to agree to putting the figure public? Would each author get write access to all aspects of the smartfigure?(Eg. Edit title/keywords the figure itsself)

- Can we just give the figure owner the responsibility to ask each author first or agree to some license for all of the authors? Is it as strict as a publication in paper form? We could include this in the “mini requirements” before publication.

- Versioning of public content-is it possible to change stuff after publication? Can keywords or tags be changed after publication or would that be a new version?

## Sorting/facetted navigation

- JC doesnt really prioritize the facetted navigation. More important to have a custom sorting ideally according to “most relevant” content such as similarity of keywords and maybe authors(?) It would be good if custom sorting is in place when a public page is established, and then facetted navigation is a nice add on. But this discussion goes in a similar direction regarding what the use case really is (see above).

## Feedback

- There will be a very visible feedback widget on the dashboard. For now I would simply get the feedback via email and keep track using the sfb1315 project Z feedback forum. I also think it is okay to have a single free text field and the option to write an email. Anyways this repository will be used going forward to coordinate discussions.

## Paper

- JC wants to write a paper about the gallery which should be discussed in a larger group. (ML, TL, JC,HS…? Who else? Paper is due early next year)

- Sdash has to be open source until then, which shouldn’t be a problem. I will check with the dev team how and when in will be opened.
