Now we have https://github.com/IATI/D-Portal/issues/684 in place, it would be good to look at the text used for the graphs - eg:

d-portal (22)

Where does the money come from (IATI all years)

This graphs leads to: https://d-portal.org/ctrack.html?country_code=AO#view=publishers

The money comes from 67 IATI Reporting Organisations.

d-portal (23)

I'm not too keen on the sentiment of "the money come from" as it's not entirely true. The money may come from different sources -- > eg a reporting-org may have activities whereby they are not a participating-org/@role="1" (Funding). There will be quite a few other examples, too

Before proceeding, just wanted to check with @notshi & @xriss that this statement ("Where does the money come from (IATI all years)") now relates to a breakdown of the relevant reporting-org ?

Note: this would also be something to look at for the sector and country graphs, at a later point

Yes. The donors page grouped by CRS but not this publishers page.

The phrases, "Where does the money come from / go?" were chosen to give context to the data for users; most will not know or care about reporting/participating orgs.

This is probably part of the (larger) discussion on d-portal's direction to be more publisher-focused (the IATI standard) and less user-focused (less jargon, more intuitive for the layperson).
