Ideas & review process for Nanopublications

[Anatoly Scherbakov]

Hi,

A nanopublication is an information product, much like software. In the following text, let us assume that a nanopublication is written as code rather than visually.

1. If someone would like to practice writing nanopublications, where from could they get ideas for them?
   1. Is there a place to post ideas of nanopubs one would like to see?
2. If someone writes a nanopublication, how can they request someone to review it?
   
   1. Is it customary to review nanopubs with other nanopubs?
   2. Or maybe someone uses the GitHub review process for this?

Thanks!

Anatoly

Hi Anatoly, please ask these questions also for ‘templates’ to create nanopublication instances, such as in the LIFES ‘library’

LIFES.institute

Hi Barend,

Thank you for your reply! I agree with the importance of templating when writing nanopublications. I couldn't immediately find a templates library at lifes.institute, maybe I need to be a member. However,

- there is a great library in Nanodash,

- there is a templating mechanism at nanopub-py accessible from Python, and I am advocating to expose them in its command line interface: https://github.com/Nanopublication/nanopub-py/pull/180

What I am thinking here is maybe something like a permanent Hacktoberfest, where

- open source projects publish issues with a hacktoberfest label

- people can look for them and do small but meaningful contributions to open source.

Maybe that's what I'd be interested in regarding nanopublications. If that makes sense.
