700762 - feature request: frequency/font-size related tag cloud for top n groups on /group/ index page

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Participation Infrastructure :: Phonebook, defect)

Description

[Tantek Çelik]

It would be great if the currently 404 / unused group index page:

https://mozillians.org/en-US/group/

showed a tag cloud of the top n (100?) groups, sorted alphabetically, with font-size proportionate to log(occurrences(group)), e.g. the way Flickr does top tags: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags

This would help significantly with user discovery of groups, re-use of existing groups, etc.

We've added a list of curated groups to the homepage and search 404 (do a search for "aeorgijae;rogjaeo;rigjae;roigjaer").

Ah, to explain...Curated Groups are groups with a Mozilla Steward attached to them.

Reopening for more discussion and possible inclusion into the new UX overhaul that is occuring on mozillians-dev.allizom.org.

Tantek was suggesting /group/ show a cloud of groups. It currently only shows a default 404 page.

with the multi-email feature about to come, I was wondering if this is a bug that should get fixed soon.

[Teri Charles [:tericharles]]

Ignore my previous comment. It was meant for another bug.  :-)

Closing due to this being a specific tweak to a thing on mozillians.org (decom'ed), which has no equivalent in people.m.o.
