[Contributor] When doing analysis I want to know what claims there are (and their importance) so that i can choose which to analyse next

[User] When looking at making sense project I want to know what claims you have listed and evaluated so that I can look at hte one that is interesting to me

Acceptance

  • A list of all claims we have identified ✅2022-09-09 see https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12Yh1kuxH4uoposLUJsJifM2W_zixkAhlc7QgcKavfls/edit#gid=717497239

Tasks

Prep

  • Analysis of needs for DB
    • Identify needs for this "database" e.g. a) does it need to be structured b) draft as well as finished material c) planning or publication (or both) ✅2022-09-07 yes is structure, continues all claims both not started, draft, finished on analysis and whether "published" or not (everything may be published but finished state may vary)
  • Choose canonical location ✅2022-09-07 google spreadsheet (though coggle for initial overview)
  • Key features for aspirations database ✅2022-09-07: title, description
  • Key features for claims database: **✅2022-09-07 title, description (short), **

Build it

  • Consolidate list in one place (perhaps structured by aspiration)
    • What material do we already have?
    • Consolidate list of claims into coggle 🚧2022-09-07 done claims section
      • All deep dives are matched in coggle
      • All claims section matched to coggle
      • Refactor claims list in light of this to integrate / de-duplicate
    • Process to spreadsheet
  • Analyze
    • Do we have material on it?
      • Check deep dives
      • Check claims section on wiki
      • Non deep dive episodes
      • Other material
    • Do we have summary
    • Do we have evaluation
    • What is evaluation

Making progress mapping existing materials against claims taxonomy 🎉
