PEOPLE–PROJECT NETWORKS / RESEARCH DOSSIER
People–Project Networks.
Make collaboration visible.
The people behind code work through teams, laboratories, communities and institutions.
Evidence for participation
Authorship, maintenance, employment, funding, correspondence and informal advice are not interchangeable roles. Each claimed relationship should cite a document with the role, time and scope.
A network is not a ranking
Dense connections can reflect surviving archives, language, digitization and whose projects were widely reported. Network centrality is not a reliable proxy for contribution or significance.
Missing contributors deserve care
A missing person may reflect incomplete records rather than absence of involvement. The evidence submission process lets readers add underrepresented contributors with sources and context.
CONTRIBUTE A DOCUMENTED FINDING
Submit a verifiable relationship between a person, team and project with date and role.
