The roster
54 members
These are the people who make everything on this site. Nobody here is an author on anything, because nothing here is made by one person. Every article the club publishes goes through everyone below in some form: researching the underlying claim, drafting, checking the arithmetic against a source table, editing a paragraph that did not land, redrawing a figure until it holds up. See the about page for the longer version of why we sign our work that way.The roles below are jobs, not rank. Running meetings, keeping the website working, editing drafts, coordinating outreach, being the reason there is a club to begin with, are all just things that need doing. Everyone listed, officer or not, does the actual research and writing.

The jobs
What each job involves
Chair
- How often
- Rotates weekly
- How many
- One per meeting
Runs the hour. Picks the paper and keeps the clock honest enough that the objection round actually happens, instead of quietly evaporating every week when the methods section overruns. Everybody takes a turn eventually, including people who joined in September.
Issue editor
- How often
- One per term
- How many
- One per issue
Decides what goes into the quarterly issue and what gets held back. This is the job that has to tell a draft somebody worked on for six weeks that it is not finished, which is why it is agreed at the start of a term by people who know what they are signing up for.
Numbers check
- How often
- Per article
- How many
- Two people
Takes every figure in a draft back to the table it came from and confirms it. Two people do this separately and neither is told what the other found. Nothing publishes until both have signed off.
Figures
- How often
- Per article
- How many
- One or two
Draws the charts, and kills the charts that look impressive while saying nothing. Also builds the browser models that go with most field notes, which is the part of the club that most resembles ordinary programming.
Analysis lead
- How often
- Per study
- How many
- One per study
Owns the code behind a piece of our own research. The standing rule is that somebody who did not write a script has to run it from a clean start before it ships, so this job comes with a second person attached who is paid in nothing but the right to complain.
Cold reader
- How often
- Per draft
- How many
- Two or three
Reads a nearly finished draft with no context and marks every sentence that did not land. No background needed, and having less background is an advantage. This is the first job we hand new members and it changes drafts more than any other.
References
- How often
- Per article
- How many
- One person
Opens every citation in a draft and checks that it says what we claim it says. It catches more than anyone expects it to, usually in the form of a sentence that drifted a little further than the source would support.
Site and archive
- How often
- Ongoing
- How many
- One or two
Keeps this site in step with the LaTeX source and the analysis code that every article links to. Unglamorous, and the reason the download links at the bottom of an article are not broken.
