Earlier this evening I spoke with Noa for an interview. I mentioned about some sort of advanced dashboard for easy editing of artworks that might be able to be used for power users (like the two roles above) or a greater sense of bulk control for hunters too. I’ve mocked up an example below:
This dashboard will allow the bulk edit of artworks in a city (can be multiple cities). I mentioned this in an earlier suggestions post but finally had the motivation to exhibit an example. Artworks can, instead of going into each individual artwork can be edited by clicking on the description if one is in an ‘edit mode’. Click and type into a description, maybe add a few keyworkds if it’s blank, click out and save. More specific categories, such as keywords, festival, style or others can also be bulk edited or directly inputted into a table with an overview-like dashboard. Of course, more columns for the beta tags will be added, just to make it even more fuller.
This unlocks a lot of editing power that is through this so something for the above roles will be more appropriate. One can also sort by clicking on the column header (i.e. artist or status) to soft by A-Z/unknown or find all the drafts, or use the Bulk Actions dropdown to filter by incomplete, unknown, blank artist, etc. It also gives a nifty icon view of all the different images of the artwork too. Of course, there’s no reason to Bulk Edit every single entry for a city, but editing a couple dozen artworks that are part of a single festival in bulk is nice.
Noa suggested I add this under this New Rights and Roles post rather than the Suggestions for the SAC App/Website (which I still have a quazillion suggestions left in the tank even after writing it). I feel like I’ve been given a lot of energy.
Even more to come.
