@scottofletcher @plscully,
@dethe and I have some questions/ comments to do with this field:
Thoughts? Perhaps we should hold off on implementing this field? Thanks!
@jesicarson @dethe Here's my take on this:
Given all these questions/issues, I agree that we should hold off on implementing for now. I will have to go back to some early notes to be completely sure, but I think the request for this field came from Nancy Doubleday, a co-investigator at McMaster U and from Tiago Peixoto at the World Bank. Their concern was that we be as transparent as possible regarding whether a contributor had a vested interest in how they wrote their entry. Recently, however, Mark and I decided that we should approach our partners at UBC's school of information science and see if they are willing to conduct a thorough review of best practices in terms of balancing transparency and privacy for open-source research. Our questions related to this field could be part of that research.
Since we've already built the field, can we simply hide it for now?
We can hide it or remove it. Given that the data doesn't appear to be persisting, I think we never finished implementing it in the first place (and implementing will be complicated for reasons given above). So right now the fact that we're showing it should probably be considered a bug. I'll remove it.
Thanks all. Interesting research topic Pat, let us know what Ubc says.
