Dear Albert Y. Kim,

The Journal of Statistical Software (JSS, https://www.jstatsoft.org/) recently migrated to a new server and editorial system, resulting in a change of the URLs being used for publications. Hence we checked all CRAN packages using JSS URLs in the documentation or citation files etc. This includes some of your packages: fivethirtyeight.

In general we recommend to use DOIs instead of URLs to link to JSS publications. These use the following pattern for articles: 10.18637/jss.vXXX.iYY where XXX is the three-digit volume and YY the two-digit issue. (For code snippets a "cYY" instead of "iYY" is used.) The DOIs are also shown on the web pages of the JSS articles.

For including these in a package you typically use:

We would recommend to change all JSS references in your package correspondingly (even if redirections for the URLs are still working). The corresponding files in the package are: fivethirtyeight/inst/doc/tame.html

Thanks for your consideration - and for referring to work published in JSS!
