Sep 13, 2010 at 12:57 | comment | added | svadali | @robin Thanks for bringing that thread to my attention. I will post a meta thread which will serve as a repository of all these types of questions for future reference. | |
Sep 13, 2010 at 10:17 | comment | added | robin girard | @Srikant, I also asked a more focused question about data set stats.stackexchange.com/questions/973/… | |

Sep 9, 2010 at 17:52 | comment | added | svadali | I see what you are saying but I am guessing that most folks would decide to participate if the questions we are trying to solve are 'interesting' at some level. The data itself must anyway exist somewhere for a polystats-project to be viable. Therefore, it seems to me that the choice of subject/data is secondary to the questions we want to answer. Let us wait for others to chime in with their thoughts before we change the current setup. I have no issues with changing how we do this as long as the community arrives at some consensus. | |
Sep 9, 2010 at 17:41 | comment | added | Shane Mod | Then I would advise that you add a step: choose subject/data --> decide questions --> explore data --> model setup etc. Trying to use this question to manage the subject matter and the questions would seem too hard to follow (IMO). | |
Sep 9, 2010 at 17:35 | comment | added | svadali | Will that not fragment our effort across multiple questions? From the point of maximizing contributors to the project and to achieve some coherence on polystats projects, we may want to stick to a somewhat linear format as outlined in the qn: Decide questions --> explore data --> model setup etc. Can't we use this thread to decide which questions to look at by posting the broad questions as separate answers? I like the idea of having version tags [polystats-project-1] and will add one along those lines. | |
Sep 9, 2010 at 17:22 | comment | added | Shane Mod | This thread should probably just decide on a subject for [polystats-project-1]. We can then have many questions on the same project tagged with the same polystats tag. So, for instance, this first project could be generally "Describe the SE communities", and a specific question could be "What makes a community succeed/fail?" and another could be "Which communities are more/less friendly?". | |
Sep 9, 2010 at 17:07 | comment | added | svadali | Another suggestion: It may be useful to suggest different project ideas based on the same dataset. For example, building on Shane's idea to use SE data, someone can suggest exploring a different aspect of Q&A sites. The votes would then decide what project we will look at. | |
