=== Boost taxonomy contributions ===
=== Help boost taxonomy contributions ===
====Description====
[[Global taxonomies|Taxonomies]] are at the heart of Open Food Facts in many aspects. It helps identify components (ingredients, labels, brands,…) and link them to useful properties, at the base of nutri-score, eco-score, allergens identification and some other properties. It is a less known but very important contribution area for the project.


Up to now contributors who wants to contribute to the taxonomy would have to edit in a cumbersome flat file and open a pull request. That's not easy.
Taxonomy editor comes to the rescue. While still in [http://ui.taxonomy.localhost:8091/ alpha stage], it should rapidly be deployed to production. Now it's time t add a lot of features to really help taxonomy grow rapidly in many languages.
====Expected outcomes====
The project will develop features that will help taxonomy contributors to adapt and edit the taxonomy.
* a lot of checks: missing translations, duplicated synonyms, entries with a lot of children
* enriching the search engine with useful filters
* helpers to enrich taxonomy properties: links to wikidata, ciqual codes, etc.
* dashboards at taxonomy level
* exploration of the graph
* suggestions or consistency checks by LLMs
* tracking modifications of nodes to enable comparison with raw taxonomy
It will leverage the graph database as well as external APIs. You will develop iteratively (continuous deployment is already there) getting immediate feedback from the community.
====Project information====
