Right now if you click "blog" everything is in reverse chronological order

"Previous" takes you to /blog/page3/ which is clearly wrong

per plussone's recommendation

broken by #140

Keeping a running list of times CPD has violated our FOIAs is interesting generally and could illuminate patterns, but also could be useful for potential lawsuits. The open question is whether we include anyone's CPD FOIAs or just our own (although what counts as an LPL FOIA seems ambiguous)

The donorbox image for donate is ugly. Let's fix that.

Related to #172, we need to add a good CSP and fix the (abysmal) security headers rating we have right now.

We paid 300 dollars for this data visualization and we should add it to the project page.

A dropdown for number of result per page (10, 20, 50, 100, even "all") would be cool for e.g. this page.

As we get further along with OO, we'll want to make sure that it's as easy as possible for people to get to the interface. I think this means

• a banner, image, or prominent text on the projects/openoversight/ page linking to OO, and
• possibly having the index page OO link go directly to the interface.

Description

Filtering blogs by a tag 404s.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Go to https://lucyparsonslabs.com/posts/
2. Click any tag, e.g. https://lucyparsonslabs.com/tags#investigation

Expected Behavior

I see a list of posts filtered by that tag.

Actual Behavior

On the support page, under one-time for paypal, there is a donate now button as well as a link to our paypal, both of which link to our paypal. Should probably leave only one

the previous block (```) did not render correctly on mobile

Seems like our web fonts do not allow for italics right now? Am I missing something? Can this be added? (@jonsatrom)

It's kind of weird that there are only four of us on the website given how we have volunteers doing a lot of work for us. I suggest we add a "LPL core member" page to recognize the contributions of the many other people sitting in our Slack and doing great shit for us. This involves pinging people contributing and seeing who is willing to be recognized and under what moniker.

Our project page has a JS layover were we talk about Secure Drop and Open Oversight but neither of those spellings are correct.

Our about page needs some <3. In particular the What We Do section needs much more concrete information about our contributions in the last two years.

I assume this also mean we need to update our DNS to point to the new webserver (after we drop the reverse proxy)?

https://lucyparsonslabs.com/fullaudit/ returns a 404

Right now our business plan has CAF as a project of ours. We should create a generic project page that includes the reader story, the full audit, the MR links, the Reason article, and information about HB 303.

It looks like the donorbox button is for reoccurring donations but it actually allows both.

Reported bug that I can reproduce using an Android phone (using Chrome developer tools). May require testing on mobile.

Currently on some of our blog posts the animated gif follows you as you scroll. This makes reading the text in a web browser very difficult, as the eyes tend to wander.

Let's get up a donations button, even if it's Paypal at first it's better than nothing

Let's add a code of conduct to the website

This link is broken on this page

The events on the site are largely archival- maybe we should have a section for past events and current events- where we can post links to meetups or Facebook events for Digisec trainings, FOIA workshops, etc.

Piwiki would be a good choice

It seems that we have fallen off in updating our Warrant Canary here:

I believe this is simply a technical error, so I am reporting it here as an issue.

There seems to be a clean way to do this using jquery. Currently the contact page is long and very unreadable

Hello: this is my suggestion for a revised text for the homepage:

Since 2015, Lucy Parsons Labs has obtained approximately six hundred checks related to the Chicago Police Department's use of civil asset forfeiture. This page contains a searchable and sortable repository of these records, as well as all the checks we've obtained since 2009. There are links to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, the results of each request, and the check amounts. We also invite you to read our full investigation into CPD's use of civil asset forfeiture in the Chicago Reader.

Our investigation found that the majority of the civil asset forfeiture funds (known as the "1505" fund) went to pay for the everyday prosecution of the War on Drugs. Alarmingly, the 1505 fund has been used to purchase a large portion of the Chicago Police Department's surveillance equipment. This includes controversial equipment such as IMSI catchers (commonly known as Stingrays), Automatic License Plate Readers, "blue light cameras" (or PODs), and PenLINK equipment. You can find surveillance equipment by sorting the categories tab.

The Chicago Police Department collected between $4.7 million and $9.3 million annually from 2009 to 2015. Between January 2010 and March 2016, $16 million, or about 80 percent of these larger payments, was spent on the day-to-day operations of the Bureau of Organized Crime. In 2015, the Bureau of Organized Crime received $77 million in its official budget. That year's additional forfeiture income was $4.7 million, nearly 6 percent of its total budget. Yet the forfeiture fund was already flush with cash from previous years: at the end of October 2015, the bureau had more than $17 million in its forfeiture checking and savings accounts. An internal CPD audit (PDF) obtained by Lucy Parsons Labs breaks down some of BoC expenses by category. In 2010, $267,000 was used for equipment and tools, $28,000 for office supplies, and almost $1 million for telephonic equipment and services.

Note: This is a live document. There are unknowns in the data set due to liberal use of redactions by the Chicago Police's FOIA Department as well as unfulfilled requests. If you would like to submit an FOIA request for missing checks, find checks that have a missing requester name and send an email to info AT lucyparsonslabs DOT com. This audit began using records from 2009 to the present but it is our hope to continue this project into the future.

We have a pretty firm community guideline in our bylaws we filed with IRS (no fash, no MRAs, etc). We should add a community guideline to our webpage as well. @r4v5 do you want to take a crack at it?

I believe this is a holdover from the milestone 0.2 theme migration and doesn't quite look right. Will add as a milestone and discuss with our designer.

should point to: /images/LPL-logo.png

or better yet, I made a site poster image for social (need to check warez FB is pulling image from too in includes/header.html)

• update colors
• update footer
• update avicon

Let me know if I'm missing anything

Do we want to rake dev on GitHub or use any automated deploy pipeline for staging? I'm not super familiar with GitHub actions.
