These improvements to Extension:Campaigns will persist information about campaigns, and provide an API.
Considerations
[edit]- Not sure if we want to have campaign "owners".
- How to deal with fuzz spam?
- Do we want any kind of namespacing done on campaigns? Seems wise. This could be done in a semi-transparent way by forming a campaign name like "<group-identifier>/<campaign title>" during campaign creation.
Schema changes
[edit]Campaign table
[edit]| Column | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| id | unsigned int not null, primary key | Autoincrement id |
| name | varchar(255) not null, unique key | Campaign name. Cannot be updated. |
| welcome_title | varchar(255) default null | Page to show during new account creation. |
| created_time | timestamp not null, key | Campaign creation time |
| is_private | tinyint not null default 1 | True if campaign membership should be hidden from public view |
Campaign owner table
[edit]| Column | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| id | unsigned int not null | Autoincremented link table row id |
| campaign_id | unsigned int not null | FK to campaign.id |
| user_id | unsigned int not null | FK to user.user_id |
Campaign member table
[edit]This table should be designed more carefully so we are future-compatible with obvious, new Campaigns use cases.
| Column | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| id | unsigned int not null | Autoincremented link table row id |
| campaign_id | unsigned int not null | FK to campaign.id |
| user_id | unsigned int not null | FK to user.user_id |
Campaign owners
[edit]There is currently only one class of campaign owner, and these users are allowed to view all information and make any changes to a campaign.
Interaction with Wikimetrics
[edit]Wikimetrics will pull cohorts via an API that we'll create, to let users access them from Wikimetrics.
Wikimetrics will need to be extended to support this new usage.
Future enhancements
[edit]Things which need to happen, but are not covered by this RFC:
- Admin UI: create campaigns, edit properties, assign owners. Allow the community to create social campaigns.
- Campaign link generation
- Campaigns for things other than new account creation (e.g. fundraising, editathons)
