Some of these lists are more curated than others. I'm currently trying to use the following system of ratings:
Rating | Description |
---|---|
3 | If you read nothing else, read this. |
2 | I found it very interesting and/or it's a valuable resource. |
1 | I read (or at least skimmed) it and didn't consider it a waste of my time. |
0 | I read (or at least skimmed) it and I'm not sure. Consider it a curiosity. |
-1 | I read (or at least skimmed) it and was not impressed, but kept it here anyway. |
classic | A classic work; it might be a bit heavy, but worth knowing about. |
(no rating) | I haven't read it or haven't formed an opinion on it. |
Ratings don't usually apply to Wikipedia articles, as the quality of those can drift over time.
Combining as it does factual information (the title of a work, where it can be accessed, who its authors are, when it was created) and opinion (ratings, commentary), this repository is also an experiment in combining multiple licensing strategies under the REUSE paradigm; the factual information is in the public domain (CC-1.0) while the commentary is CC-BY-ND-4.0, with the rating being freely usable for any purpose - which includes computing results which will appear in the public domain, which is exactly what our automation here will be doing with them.
TODO
- For commentary links on secondary entries: either don't show them, or have the link go to the proper (primary) topic's commentary page.
- Match wayback machine links, show "(wayback)" on them
- Match PDF links, show "(PDF)" on them
- Questions, as seperate from Webpages
- Collect CC-licensed content into local, combined document
