BELLOW IN ENGLISH (let us know if you prefer the disuction to be in English or French and English).
Mercredi 2 à 17h Philippe Couve de l'Atelier des médias RFI modérera un débat sur la gestion des communautés et la contribution des lecteurs sur rue89 et MotherJones. Adresse http://paris2009.drupalcon.org/practical/venue
MotherJones est un journal très connu outre atlantique. Le nouveau site Drupal a été conçu avec une zone « Comments central » http://www.motherjones.com/comments-central Cette zone permet aux internautes :
- De retrouver les commentaires les plus actifs,
- D'organiser des discutions avec des experts en coopérant avec des lecteurs.
- A la rédaction de mettre avant les contributions les plus intéressantes
- Aux lecteurs de signaler les commentaires constructifs proposant des solutions ou qui ont obtenu des résultats.
Cécile Nadeau représentera MotherJones. Elle est française mais expatriée aux USA depuis plus de 10 ans.
Rue89 avec Laurent Mauriac présentera son système de sélection de commentaires et la manière dont rue89 est parvenu à cette idée.
Ce système permet, sous chaque article, de mettre en valeur les commentaires les plus pertinents. Ces commentaires sont sélectionnés par les journalistes, généralement par les auteurs des articles. Rue89 a essayé ou envisagé plusieurs systèmes de sélection automatiques, fondés sur l'évaluation des internautes, mais aucun ne s'est montré satisfaisant. La principale raison est que les lecteurs tendent à noter les commentaires en fonction de leurs opinions et non en fonction de la pertinence des commentaires.
Exemples :

Rue89 présentera également une extension de ce système de sélection des commentaires qui est un système de questions-réponses : les internautes posent une question, les journalistes, les experts ou les internautes de Rue89 y répondent. Les meilleures réponses sont mises en évidence.

RUE89 :
We would like to introduce our select box of the best comments and how we achieved this project.
The system enables, under each article, to highlight to most relevant comments. These comments are selected by journalists, most often the authors of the articles. We thought about automating the system based on the ratings given by users. But we realized that readers tend to rate comments depending on their opinion even if they are asked to take relevance into account.
Here are a few examples:

We could also introduce an extension of this select box system: a question-answer functionnality we developed for Eco89, the economic arm of Rue89: users ask questions on the economy, Rue89 selects relevant questions, then journalists, experts and readers give their answers and the best ones are highlighted.

We hope these topics suit you and bring insightful complements to the issues you want to tackle.

Investigative journalism can shed light on a problem, but where do we go from there? We hope that the people who read our investigations have an inherent desire to solve problems—to be the whistleblowers, the people on the front lines, the idea makers. And, we feel a responsibility to provide our readers with the tools to do so.
So, we've rebuilt MotherJones.com to be more than a news site: we want it to be a place for conversation, a forum for thinking about and debating solutions to the problems we cover. We want to actively include readers in the journalism we produce,and we want our readers to be able to interact with and inspire each other. That is why we chose Drupal as our community platform.
Whether users prefer to eavesdrop or jump right into the fray, here are four of the ways Mother Jones Comments Central allows staff and readers to find out which discussions are going on:
* Most Active: This section showcases the most commented-on articles from the last 7 days
* Most Recommended: See the stories that have generated the highest number of recommended comments in the last 7 days;
* MoJo Forums: These are curated Big Think panels in which one or more experts discuss a controversial topic with readers–and with each other. They generally last at least a week.
* Editors' Picks: These must-reads are the staff's latest favorites, and often the stories we email to our friends.
Additionally, readers who want to propose an action or solution to a problem addressed in the conversation, can tag their comment "Proposed Solution" or "Documented Result" by checking the appropriate box, at the time they submit a comment.
Why is this important? Readers are able to suggest a course of action to other readers. We hope that this forum will eventually become a vibrant place for people to hash out policy, to suggest stories for our journalists to investigate, and to organize around issues that are important to them.
Why was Drupal our platform of choice? For many reasons. For more information, please refer to the case study: http://drupal.org/node/466056. We will be providing additional information shortly.
