Also @nuriastatgirl should take a look, as well as @mgarenas , @iblancasa, @unintendedbear , @javacasm, @pleonex and whoever. Before doing any change to the paper, add yourself as an author.

iblancasa commented 9 years ago

:thumbsup: Ok, I am going to read it

iblancasa commented 9 years ago

I am trying to know how to add/edit info.

When you say (table 1, page 4):

Raw aggregate measures for the 20 most populated provinces, including the population (taken from the National Statistics Institute), the number of users and their contributions, stars and followers and the average number of contributions: contributions / users.

Would not be...?

Raw aggregate measures for the 20 most populated provinces, including the population (taken from the National Statistics Institute), the number of users, their contributions, stars and followers and the average number of contributions: contributions / users.

In table 1, are represented: "province population users contributions stars followers". I think the average number of contributions: contributions / users is not present

iblancasa commented 9 years ago

Too in page 4:

The range of users shown in the table hovers around the hundreds, with the one in the biggest provincies (and cities) approaching 1000. However, population and users/contributions are not directly related. We can already see some differences in figure ??,[...]

Last paragraph. It is "figure 1", right?

iblancasa commented 9 years ago

I have fixed one thing (the figure number).

I have an idea. Can we relate this ranking and this ranking with the paper?

fernand0 commented 9 years ago

Some comments after a first lecture:

NuriaStatgirl commented 9 years ago

Table 1 does not show "the average number of contributions: contributions/users" that the caption says (but it appears at Figure 4).

Figure 1 Y axis says "Contributions" and it must be "City" Figure 1 X axis, left, says "contributions", must be "Number of Contributions" Figure 1 X axis, right, says "users", must be "Number of Users"

Figure 2, left and right, must be in log scale both axis (as usual for Zipf's).

Table 2, second column, "min" must be "exponent", isn't it?, Then, the caption of the table should be changed

JJ commented 9 years ago

@iblancasa thanks for the correction; please go ahead and change at will. All: please add yourselves as authors.

iblancasa commented 9 years ago

@JJ you are welcome.

All: please add yourselves as authors.

Using \author or how? Sorry, I am noob with LaTeX and all this...

I think like @fernand0 : it is necessary to add the reference with the "population data". Is this?

JJ commented 9 years ago

@iblancasa correct, add yourself between the keys, as in `\author{JJ Merelo\thanks{GeNeura Team and Free Software Office, University of Granada}, Israel Blanca \thanks{company or university}} the census data is correct.

iblancasa commented 9 years ago

Where I add the census? At "rankings.bib"?

JJ commented 9 years ago

Or a footnote.

iblancasa commented 9 years ago

I am trying to add with a footnote but... "Argument of \Hy@tempa has an extra } and Paragraph ended before \Hy@tempa was complete"

\caption{Raw aggregate measures for the 20 most populated provinces,
  including the population (taken from the National Statistics
  Institute \footnote{PROBANDO}), the number of users and their contributions, stars and
  followers. Please note that province names do not correspond to
  official names, having rather been chosen a bit arbitrarily from the
  search strings used.}

I have read that the problem is for put it into the caption but I have no find the solution

fernand0 commented 9 years ago

Hi,

at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2888817/footnotes-for-tables-in-latex they suggest several possibilities. The one that seems easier to me is to put the table inside a minipage:

" Minipage it (code stolen outright, and read the discalimer about long caption texts in that case):

\begin{figure}
  \begin{minipage}{\textwidth}
    ...
    \caption[Caption for LOF]%
      {Real caption\footnote{blah}}
  \end{minipage}
\end{figure}

"

JJ commented 9 years ago

We can also add the mention in the text, not the caption.

mgarenas commented 9 years ago

I've correct and complement some sentences and review the graphs of the first release (pdf). Some changes are already included into the source files but I cannot include the changes into the pictures. For example, the figure 1 show contributors vs contributors, It has no sense isn't it? Even the scale of the x is not the same, so it may be a bit confuse for readers.

It the paper will be included with colors, the Figure 2 is Ok, but if it is not the case, the colors of BNC and GRX are too close in the ranking and they will not be separable.

In other hand, I'm not be able to generate a new pdf from the sources including figures and tables, I suppose it is because JJ uses a new strange latex plugin mix with any other R script or Perl script, or whatever or may be because I do not know anything about latex.

@mgarenas I haven't got any problems. I only install R, LaTex, RStudio and this: install.packages(c("knitr","ggplot2", "ineq"), dependencies = TRUE)

mgarenas commented 9 years ago

Thanks, We only need R, Latex and RStudio and several specific R packages and then how you compile? inside RStudio?, inside R promt? or...?

iblancasa commented 9 years ago

@mgarenas I have install:

Previusly, I haven't got any more installed

pacastillo commented 9 years ago

As far as I know, the RStudio must have a "generate PDF" or "compile PDF" button.

mgarenas commented 9 years ago

Ok, It is done, I have a new pdf file without errors. Thanks

JJ commented 9 years ago

Closed for this version.

fergunet commented 9 years ago

Sorry for commenting in a closed issue, but I am getting the next error when compiling from Rstudio:

Writing to file github-rankings.tex
Processing code chunks with options ...

I've also installed the packages that @iblancasa mentions.

JJ commented 9 years ago

I really have no idea. I do it from emacs without a problem. Might be a problem with the version, but who knows...
