I would suggested waiting on fixing this issue until the submission is reviewed and accepted. Layouts are notoriously hard with Markdown/Pandoc and as the paper contents may change during review, we should just fix this once at the end.

Does that sounds reasonable to everyone?

@marekborowiec — I am the Associate Editor-in-Chief on rotation this week, and will be working to identify an editor to handle your submission. But first, you need to add a paper.bib file with the references cited in your paper, in BibTeX format.

Ah yes. Done.

Ok, not exactly sure what just happened with the reference check, that looks a bit excessive...

Anyway - @marekborowiec, do you have suggestions for reviewers that would be suitable for your submission (e.g. from the list linked in the first post in this issue)?

While we are looking for reviewers, could you also fix a couple of small things in the paper:

  • [ ] remove the "editor" line in the .bib entries
  • [ ] be consistent in using either abbreviated or non-abbreviated journal names in the bibliography

I believe the following people should be able to review this:

@iimog, @gvegayon, @gavinmdouglas, @shaunpwilkinson, @giraola, @dsurujon, @Nazeeefa, @camillescott

I have also removed the editor line from bibliography entries for journal articles and attempted to make consistent use of unabbreviated journal names.

I also introduced a couple adjustments to the paper.md file so that it (hopefully) correctly renders the figure and references section title correctly.

I'm sorry, but I'm not familiar with the topic, so I'm afraid I can't help.

@marekborowiec - it would be good if you could also limit the entries in your bibtex file to just those references that you cite in this paper.

Done

@whedon generate pdf

Attempting PDF compilation. Reticulating splines etc...

đź‘‹ @iimog, @gavinmdouglas, @shaunpwilkinson, @giraola, @dsurujon, @Nazeeefa, @camillescott - would (two of) you be willing to review this submission for JOSS?

:wave: @camillescott I'd be willing to review this submission.

Thanks @iimog!

@whedon assign @iimog as reviewer

OK, the reviewer is @iimog

Is there a way to make the figure go before References?

Is there a way to make the figure go before References?

Hm, making figures appear in the desired place in the output is certainly not always easy. From https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/845 I think you can override the default placement of the figure, and it is also possible to explicitly add \pagebreak to force a new page. Whether that will look better in the end remains to be seen. Btw, I'm not sure you need a separate section for the figure - could it just go in the paragraph where it is mentioned?

I would suggested waiting on fixing this issue until the submission is reviewed and accepted. Layouts are notoriously hard with Markdown/Pandoc and as the paper contents may change during review, we should just fix this once at the end.

Does that sounds reasonable to everyone?

@whedon start review

I'm sorry @iimog, I'm afraid I can't do that. That's something only editors are allowed to do.

Hi @iimog - we're just waiting for one more reviewer, then I'll officially start the review; i.e., open the actual review issue, with the reviewer checklists etc. (of course, you can already start looking at the submission :))

Thanks @csoneson and sorry for being impatient :)

I would suggested waiting on fixing this issue until the submission is reviewed and accepted.

Sounds good to me. I was just wondering if my markdown file was properly formatted.

I'm familiar and interested in the topic although not an expert regarding alignment trimming - if that's ok then I'm happy to be a reviewer.

Thank you @gavinmdouglas!

@whedon add @gavinmdouglas as reviewer

OK, @gavinmdouglas is now a reviewer

@whedon start review

OK, I've started the review over in https://github.com/openjournals/joss-reviews/issues/1635. Feel free to close this issue now!
