Amara Support Center : How can I decline a task - 0 views

  • How can I decline a task
    • Claude Almansi
       
      This is still the page that was already obsolete when I submitted the ticket http://support.universalsubtitles.org/support/tickets/2176 for it on June 25, 2012 closed unanswered by Darren Bridenbeck on July 29, 2012. Here is the ticket's content: TED videos are a very particular case, because TED wants workflowed tasks, has provided for them in the settings, and has an external-to-Amara communication support. The problem I have is with tasks arbitrarily imposed by the Amara software in groups that don't want them and whose settings don't foresee them. What happens if I delete such a task? Does it get reassigned to an admin working for Amara, or at random to any other participant of the group, possibly already struggling with Amara-arbitrarily-imposed tasks her/himself? Then your screenshot also shows the Reassign option: that option does not appear to the assignee if s/he is a member. I don't know about managers, not having yet been hit by an Amara imposed task in a team where I am one. Moreover: in http://www.universalsubtitles.org/en/teams/newshour/tasks/ , there is a task assigned to me to "Transcribe English Subtitles" of http://www.universalsubtitles.org/videos/4cQljmM3piqA/info/watch-marco-rubios-full-speech-on-immi…, without a link to the latest draft, because Amara also fully deleted that draft, which amounted to the transcript of the first 9 min+ of the video (the 2 revisions I made are still mentioned in the activity stream in my dashboard page, over 9 hours after that arbitrary deletion). For that task, the drop-down menu only offers me two options: Start Now or Upload Draft. No way to decline it. So if you insist on having screenshots about tasks, you should have one for each of the fanciful ways Amara presents tasks to people, and use a video added to a normal team where tasks are arbitrarily imposed by Amara, not a video added to TED where tasks are a choice.

"WHERE DREAMS FLY" with translated French subtitles | Amara - 0 views

    "Draft only Subtitles translated from English. Showing Revision 0, created Yesterday by sophiavhr ." yesterday= June 9, 2012 (?) Amara software added banner, disabled Edit video link, didn't assign any task for these subs. The "View tasks for this video" link under the player of the main page leads to http://www.universalsubtitles.org/en/teams/musiccaptioning/tasks/?team_video=16890, which says "Sorry no tasks here". And no task for the video is listed in the general task page of the Music Captioning team - http://www.universalsubtitles.org/en/teams/musiccaptioning/tasks - either. June 12, 2012: issues persist

Amara Support Center : What's a "Task" and why does it matter? - 0 views

  • in order for a subtitle to become published
    • Claude Almansi
       
      ... for a set of subtitles...
  • on a team
    • Claude Almansi
       
      Not only "to be published on a team": to be published at all.
  • The types of tasks required for publishing varies among teams.
    • Claude Almansi
       
      Either "The types... vary" or "The type... varies".
    • Claude Almansi
       
      "... varies from team to team" rather than "varies among teams".
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • There are four different types of tasks:
    • Claude Almansi
       
      This list should be reworded in better, simpler English.
  • You’re going to want to find an unassigned task, which means that no one else is working on it at the moment.
    • Claude Almansi
       
      The Tasks tab links to the /tasks/?assignee=none page anyway, which only shows unassigned tasks
    • Claude Almansi
       
      This also means that once someone has started working on a task, it doesn't appear anymore in the page linked to by the Tasks tab.
  • which can vary by team
    • Claude Almansi
       
      What should be done when a team hasn't configured a due date, and thus tasks remain assigned indefinitely to the person who started it?

"Trapped in Technology - Pilot" with Italian subtitles | Amara - 0 views

  •  
    "Draft only Showing Revision 0, created 06/08/2012 by Margherita Martignoni ." Amara software added this banner, disactivated the Edit subtitles link, but didn't add a task for these subs. Video added to Music Captioning team Margherita Martignoni is not a member of Music Captioning: she therefore cannot have caused the task that caused the banner etc. June 12, 2012: issues persist
  •  
    June 14, 2012: issue persists, but then this link didn't get transfered to this Multimedia Accessibility group with the my other links tagged taskblocked, so these subs didn't undergo the manual fix that removed the Amara task blocks in the other subs. I am able to enter the widget version of the subs by main page via Start a new translation in the main page, then choosing Subtitle into Italian (100%) (normal link, not grayed) Directly from video (more work) I was able to change a few things, but though I saved the subs marking them as complete, the banner is still there. I.e. the "lying to the software" workaround indicated in http://support.universalsubtitles.org/categories/6573/forums/28027/topics/4905 only works to prevent the taskblocking, but cannot remove it.

    "Draft only Subtitles translated from English. Showing Revision 0, created Today by Claude Almansi . " Today= June 12, 2012 Amara software added link, disabled Edit subtitles link, didn't create a task To be expected, but I tried nonetheless to start these French subs because the English subs miraculously escaped the Amara software's overriding the Music Captioning settings and imposing ghost tasks, even though I edited the English subs on June 8, 2012.

    June 14, 2012: issue persists: but the banner now says: Draft only Subtitles translated from English. Showing Revision 1, created Yesterday by Claude Almansi .
