Description

Scott has indicated that the flow of creating a leaderboard FROM the evaluation data (using ‘visualize’ button) is the preferred path to educate customers instead of using the Weave sidebar to enter directly through ‘Leaderboard’ and then have to try to pick out the data you want.
(Adding as new page under Evaluations)

New Leaderboard flow

From eng loom the following is new and of interest to customers:

In Evaluations: New Configure button/panel

Shows models: active/deactive; 

Rename models, datasets, and scorers. Name updates automatically in Leaderboard

Metrics: control coloring by color inverting what is green  - higher better or lower better.

Save to view: view can be pulled up as a view of the evaluation (to show that customized leaderboard).

Testing

  • [ x] Local build succeeds without errors (mint dev)
  • [ x] Local link check succeeds without errors (mint broken-links)
  • PR tests succeed

🔗 Link Checker Results

All links are valid!

No broken links were detected in the changed files.

Tip

Redirects detected: If you see redirects for internal docs.wandb.ai links, check if they have trailing slashes.

Mintlify automatically removes trailing slashes, causing redirects like:

  • https://docs.wandb.ai/models/https://docs.wandb.ai/models

Fix: Remove trailing slashes from links to avoid unnecessary redirects.

Awesome work, thank you! One line I had a suggestion on but totally your call, not blocking


The Leaderboard automatically updates to include them, without requiring manual reconfiguration.

This lets you use views as living leaderboards that evolve alongside your experiments.

What do you think about: This lets you use views as persistent leaderboards which evolve alongside your experiments

I get what you are trying to say here but something feels a little off with the phrasing 'living'

Hey this looks good. Just requesting changes because I'm curious about the last section of the doc.




When working with Weave Evaluations, you can easily visualize and customize your experiment results as Leaderboards. Dynamic Leaderboard views automatically stay up to date as new evaluation runs are added.

I see it thrown around a lot, but I think we should try to avoid the word "easily" if possible: https://developers.google.com/style/word-list#easy


## Visualize Evaluation results in a Leaderboard

When your project contains Weave Evaluation data, you can use the evaluation table to quickly create a Weave Leaderboard view based on a filtered subset of results.

We don't have a set standard or anything, but I think leading into the instructions with a transition clause is good, like this:

"To create a Weave Leaderboard:

  1. Navigate..."

Up to you

- Remain clickable so you can still open the underlying reference in the side panel
- Automatically propagate anywhere the Leaderboard view is used

This makes it easier to compare experiments using meaningful, human-readable names without changing the underlying objects.

We're trying to get away from the sort of noun phrase stuff so I'd opt for something like

Do we need this section? I feel like this could be a part of the intro.
