Official Project Update #5

[doranwen]

It's been a busy few weeks! First I sorted through hobbies & craft groups, everything from collecting autographs to soapmaking to model trains to ham radio to knitting. Then I sorted categories of groups related to various issues and causes, from human rights to the environment to community service/volunteering. Then it was sports and outdoor hobbies - cars, hiking, baseball, soccer/football, etc. After that it was a whole lot of religion & belief-related groups - atheism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, and much more. I still have more religion & belief categories to sort through before I'm done with them.

Being out of the cultural categories, I'm not encountering many new languages (only Yiddish this time), though the religious categories had the occasional language which I've seen fewer than ten groups for.



Actual stats:

Now up to 35.07% sorted and 1.52% tagged. (Yay for being over 1/3 done with the metadata sorting now!)

Something fun:

There was a group called "potatocannons", with the following description:

This is a club for all you potato projectile loving people. This club is dedicated to the furtherment of potato cannon science.
