Although I disagree with the premise of this site (it's too close to armchair vigilanteism for my taste), but would like to add a few tips anyway.
- It would be good to have a '# of accusers' in the person's data page. As it stands, Al Gore (1) is compared 'equally' with Weinstein (>50).
- categories of accusation: grope/rape/verbal/???
- categories for evidence or proof advanced
- ability to sort/compare
I like the list of sources, but again: Weinstein only has a single link, which seems very incomplete.
- ChrisHerbert 9y agoIt's certainly a work in progress, and so far I've given less attention to the better known alleged perps. I don't even have Brett Ratner on there yet. I've also thought about rating or categorizing the allegations in a more systematic way, but it would be difficult to do well. Any sort of rating system seems like it could be easy to mess up. Point taken about Weinstein or Cosby being at the same level as, say, Ben Affleck. Perhaps grouping them by ranges of accusers would work (eg, "1," "2-5", "6-10", "10+"). One possible feature could be whether someone was convicted of an offense. That should be pretty straightforward and wouldn't involve any editorializing.
- ChrisHerbert 9y agoAlso, regarding "armchair vigilantism" - I am really trying to be careful to only use reputable publications as sources, and to not be judgmental about who I include. Some of the accusations are quite shaky, but if they were made publicly and/or covered by mainstream media, I included them. I'm trying not to bring my own person judgment into it because it's not about that.
