Abstract: A social networking system presents questions to a user on an interface associated with the social networking system to elicit information about the user that is missing from the user's profile or is otherwise outdated. The questions are selected based on a number of factors, such as the need for or value of the information item, probability of a response, or cost of collecting the information item. In presenting the selected question, the social networking system prompts a user for information about the user in a an interface associated with a page from the social networking system, an application external to the social networking system, or using a push notification or prompt. The questions may be formatted in various ways, such as an explicit question, confirmation, a selection of responses, or social context to encourage the user to respond to the question.

Abstract: A social networking system obtains specific structured data about a user via a composer interface having textual content with incomplete portions and input fields corresponding to the incomplete portions. The input fields map to data fields in the user's profile and are selected based on the social networking system's need for the information associated with the data fields.

Abstract: A social graph, which records the actions of users in a social networking system platform, may be modeled at least in part as a collection of claims that may be exported to other systems, such as third party publishers, based on permissions granted by users and entities. The social networking system may also act as a publisher, enabling web applications and mobile applications to publish claims to a variety of audiences based on the permissions granted by users and entities, or agents of the social networking system. Permissions may be granted based on agreed-upon terms of service between agents, agents and publishers, agents and the social networking system platform, and publishers and the social networking system.

Abstract: Particular embodiments of a method comprise analyzing an image to classify an expression displayed on a face shown in a captured image. Image analysis may include detecting the face in the image, generating a characterization of features of the face, and classifying the expression based on the characterization. The characterization of facial features may be based on benchmark metrics for a particular expression. One or more ideograms (e.g., written characters, symbols or images that represent an idea or thing) may be selected based on the expression. The selection may be based on one or more match scores for the expression. The match scores may be determined based on an ideogram dictionary or an ideogram usage history. The selected ideograms may then be presented, in association with the face, on a screen for the computing device.

Abstract: A user of a social networking system creates a list of objects and associates the list with a list privacy level identifying the list's accessibility to other social networking system users. For example, the list privacy level indicates other social networking system users capable of accessing the list. For example, a user creates a list including other users and associates a list privacy level with the list. Hence, the user may specify a privacy level of subsequently posted content so that users included on the list, but not other users, may access the posted content.

Abstract translation: 社交网络系统的用户创建对象列表并将该列表与识别列表对其他社交网络系统用户的可访问性的列表隐私级别相关联。 例如，列表隐私级别表示能够访问列表的其他社交网络系统用户。 例如，用户创建包括其他用户的列表，并将列表隐私级别与列表相关联。 因此，用户可以指定随后发布的内容的隐私级别，使得包括在列表中的用户而不是其他用户可以访问发布的内容。

Abstract: A social networking system allows its users to perform a structured search that returns objects (e.g., other users and pages) in the social networking system. A searching user may remove or add objects to the search by interacting with the returned objects. Adding or removing an object generates a claim stored by the social networking system that an object has or does not have, respectively, characteristics based on the search query. Additionally, the searching user may also request presentation of the search query to other users, which may be selected by the social networking system based on their predicted expertise. A dialog between the searching user and a selected other user may be provided to allow the searching user to provide the search query to the selected other user and to receive a response.

Abstract translation: 社交网络系统允许其用户执行返回社交网络系统中的对象（例如其他用户和页面）的结构化搜索。 搜索用户可以通过与返回的对象交互来删除或添加搜索对象。 添加或删除对象会生成由社交网络系统存储的索引，对象具有或不具有基于搜索查询的特征。 此外，搜索用户还可以向其他用户请求搜索查询的呈现，其可以由社交网络系统基于其预测的专业知识来选择。 可以提供搜索用户和所选择的其他用户之间的对话以允许搜索用户向所选择的其他用户提供搜索查询并且接收响应。
