@wibeasley this would be extremely positive |
@wibeasley I have a draft from a workshop I attended. I will put this in a separate branch |
@pachadotdev, I like it. I think it will be helpful to some audiences. Are you writing it in a separate file, and later combining it into the Task View when you're satisfied? I made converted it to semantic line breaks, which I've found helpful maintaining files that a lot of people touch. I also made a few changes that I hope you like. Reject anything you think doesn't improve the clarity. |
thanks! yes, I put that in a separate file |
Will it stay in a separate file, or be integrated into the Task View? If it stays in a separate file, I think the Task View should link to the page you wrote. |
the idea should be to include it in the readme, once it's ready |
Thanks for putting this together, I think this is very useful! However, this should be in the task view, not in the README. The README is just in the GitHub repository and the main page that readers will consult is the task view itself, typically on a CRAN mirror.

I think many R users (like students, statisticians, data scientists) are not as familiar with etiquette & conventions as web developers and most people web scraping. It would be nice if our web scraping section referred the reader to this info, as well as the polite package.
@pachadotdev, do you have thoughts? It's not the conventional material for a cran task view. I'm thinking a few sentences and links. Nothing preachy --just pointing them to these resources if the reader wants to educate themselves?
