Learnings

Don’t forget to “publish” the batch, reviewing and finishing will not post the HIT
Even though there were 3 tags the csv only showed 2 tag columns
The larger the number of lists the lower the quality
It’s cheap but quality is not guaranteed
Turk doesn’t have a pre-made template for list tagging
There are no pre-made components that you can drag and drop, any custom components (i.e. a table) need to made through HTML/code
On turk, there needs to be place for workers to respond or input text, so if you have a link and don’t need a text response just enter in a quick question and it’ll go through.

Tries (3 tags were asked for all lists)

1 list - 1 min to complete, completed in < 5 min. of posting = $.36

Used template on turk

Quality 9/10 - correct casing, appropriate words

10 lists - 20 min to complete, completed in 30 min. of posting = $.36

Used template on turk

Quality 5/10 - wrote in all caps, misspellings

30 lists - 45 min to complete, completed in 3 hrs of posting = $1.32

Used survey template and Google Sheet Link

Quality 2/10 - no correlation to list, obvious he didn’t click on list, misspellings

Do many batches, but smaller number of lists, maybe request the same worker. This way we’ll have better quality and more care/attention to detail.
