Would you be possibly interested in a WCA statistics sub forum?

I haven't thought about this *that* much but I figured that we could have a sub forum with stickied threads such as:


"Dictionary": for terms we have created. It could also be a place to brainstorm for new words. The opening post would contain all of the terms we create along with their respective definition.

"Requests": In this thread requests are (have a guess) requested by a... requester and their request is added to a list of requests to be fulfilled in the opening post, as long as it's reasonable enough. Fulfilled requests are then removed from this list.

"OAQT": (Self explanatory)

"Useful tools": Just like the requests thread, people post useful tools and links to the useful tools are added to the opening post.

"Weekly summary"? (Stefan's suggestion): Gather the interesting stats in their final form, only with their top 10 entries, and with small description, as well as other noteworthy developments (e.g., Stefan's sum of ranks tool or example R code used for a statistic).

EDIT: And if necessary, a FAQ?

There would probably be regular threads for each statistic e.g. nemeses, country sum of ranks, theorical optimal times for a Guildford Challenge

And maybe also a random statistics discussion thread.

Publishing the SQL Select statements that produced the statistics would be awesome.

It would be nice and we'd hopefully see more people answering requests.
