Let’s see what we can achieve together!
We have an open issue about migrating also posts and media which requires more thoughts: https://github.com/bonfire-networks/bonfire-app/issues/1304
@open_science
Two new profile widgets coming in the next #OpenScience flavour release:
📄 Most Recent Publication: showcase your latest work
⭐ Most Cited Publication: highlight your most cited publication
🔧 Quantitative metrics now hidden by default while we consider removing them entirely ( discussion here: https://indieweb.social/@bonfire/114929867344891955 )
✨ New settings panel lets users toggle each widget on/off individually
@nicebread This is a crucial question to discuss in the open and possibly create a statement from it somewhere for future reference...
Should the open science network commit to the #DORA and #CoARA agreements and therefore not include researchers quantitative metrics at all ?
Pinging among others: @jorgeluis @fresseng @brembs @JACoates @kfitz @pierre @markwilliams @openscience@a.gup.pe
@nicebread This is exactly the kind of feedback we're looking for! we were thinking of hiding the quantitative metrics widget by default and letting users show it on demand if they want it... to be more aligned with https://coara.eu/agreement/the-commitments/ (which also @fresseng pointed us to few days ago)
Would this approach make sense to you?
@openscience@a.gup.pe
wonder if this integration between @RoRInstitute and @OpenAlex can help as well?
