Introduction
It occurred to me (and ahartell) that it would be convenient if there were a place where we could report bugs and request features for the prediction tracking website PredictionBook. I propose to make this that place. If you post a comment in this thread pointing out a bug or requesting the addition of a new feature, then I will update this article to include that bug or feature.
Disclaimer: This thread isn't a promise that any particular bug will be fixed or feature added.
Feature Request
1. The ability to tag prediction statements to allow sorting by topic.
(a). Prevent prediction statements that are tagged personal from showing up on the main feed or happenstance.
(b). Allow users to form groups of "friends" that can follow prediction statements tagged as personal.
2. A voting system or flag button to discourage the use of PredictionBook for advertising purposes (and other types of spam).
3. A threaded comment system for discussing particular prediction statements (this will be much more important as the size of the community grows).
4. A Brier score visible on the user's page.
(a). Brier scores by topic.
(b). Brier score over time (say, quarterly).
5. The ability to compare calibration between users.
6. The ability to delete comments (perhaps, for a certain time period after the comment is made).
7. A button on the login page to reset the user's password.
8. An option on the user page to sort by judged/unjudged/upcoming.
9. Display a probability for the prediction statement weighed by the users' calibration scores.
Bug Reports
1. The email notification system appears not to be working.
Another request: The ability to delete comments maybe? I'm not sure if this would go against the integrity of a prediction site, but maybe it could be set up such that the comments only remained deletable for like 10 minutes (to fight accidental double posts or typos or whatever). Even a retract button like lesswrong has would be an improvement.
