Pasted in full below.

This looks like it was cleaned up well! Kudos to the team for that. Just a couple UI/UX things that I would suggest:

  • [x] I don’t love the fixed frame that exists currently when viewing this from the web. It requires scrolling through each box separately, and means that you’ll miss really important information. Instead, I would just make each section as long as it needs to be rather than having embedded frames.
  • [x] I would explain what “Missing Majority” means, as it’s probably obvious, but you can make clear with one sentence like “The majority of the world’s population comes from outside of North America and Europe, yet they represent a small fraction of first authors in beahvioral science research…”
  • [x] I would include citation information in small text in the corner of every image you have on the page. That makes it really easy for people to cite, and if they take a screenshot, it makes it really easy for them to keep the credit inside the screenshot (so they have no excuse not to cite the work).
  • [x] I believe that the fonts in the header/menu are different than those in the body of the dashboard. And the color of the header doesn’t match the title.
  • [x] I would add at least 1 more visual to the main page to get your point across — especially since most won’t click beyond it. I would suggest the continent by year graph
  • [x] Clicking on the main image on the right of the homepage takes you to different places depending on which graph you click.

Ok, some brief comments:

Comment 1: I don’t love the fixed frame that exists currently when viewing this from the web.

Done

I am really not sure about this... there is no space left to add figures. I also think the home page is crowded already, adding an additional figure on top of the gauges would be too much I'm afraid.

Clicking on the main image on the right of the homepage takes you to different places depending on which graph you click.

This is on purpose... I think it's cool, but I can also see why it can create some confusion. Still, I don't think I'd change it.

i think we could keep just one visual on the main page. the dials are nice, in my opinion.

i also personally like that clicking on different parts of the image takes you to different graphs and am willing to keep that too.

Closing this issue as I believe all the points from the checklist were resolved
