Hey there, Cynthia is basically a Fandom version of the backend used by ORES. ORES is a much larger project that allows scores to show up in RecentChanges, and has a public API - Cynthia does not have those features. This is mainly due to a funding difference - our work has been purely voluntary, worked on by three people and we don't have the resources to host a public API, nor the development time to work with Fandom to bring it to RecentChanges.

I would love the spam notification in my own discord server for the wiki im working on This is currently not available, though we're exploring ways we could do this. We're still very much in the 'beta' and not quite ready for features like that, just yet.

I'm just wondering how you guys went from ORES → Cynthia. Can I just use ORES? We went from ORES to Cynthia by collecting our own training dataset on Fandom wiki edits, and performing machine learning on these edits. This was a few months of work to get some relatively good quality scores. Unfortunately, it's not possible to use ORES because there's no API or scoring model offered by Wikimedia for wikis like the ones on Fandom - it's very much tied to Wikimedia Foundation's wikis.
