ok I got it to work; basically I had to 'mark the certificate as trusted when connecting to the repo'

also I had to change my fork to unprotected in gitlab settings to push to master

trying to build to site locally with Jekyll; run into apparently a kramdown parsing issue on this step: Loading translation from file ... /_i18n/en.yml

at a dead end solving this

seems to be a parsing problem here /_plugins/moneropedia.rb:132:in `convert'

nvm idk what im saying

koe: what command are you using? It builds fine for me.

bundle exec jekyll serve --baseurl '' [from the readme]

make sure is bundle exec jekyll serve --baseurl ''"

note the 2 double quotes at the end koe

thanks, changed it; still gives kramdown parsing issue; I tried changing the kramdown version in Gemfile.lock to its most current (v2.1.0) and got "kramdown has no parser to handle the specified input format: GFM"

ok kramdown made a new gem kramdown-parser-gfm after v2

that shouldn't be needed. I'm trying to clone in a fresh vm from scratch, let's see what happens

ok it's building now, after I changed to kramdown v2.1.0 in the lockfile and added "gem 'kramdown-parser-gfm'" to my Gemfile

ok my bad, I just deleted the _posts folder and that solved it (not messing with kramdown)

koe: FYI i didn't find any issue building from scratch. Double check your local configuration

going to work on adding the hash to point writeup, what should I put as the title tag e.g. MRL-0001? MRL-SUPP, MRL-HtoP? sarang what do you think?

I'd just use the title that the author chose, and the link you provided

ok

AFAIK it wasn't published elsewhere

yeah I dont want to cite github

Why not?

I don't know of another "canonical home" for that writeup

that's why I want to put it on getmonero

seems more reliable

I would not feel comfortable doing that without the author's permission

do you have contact with shen noether?

I do not

the MRL repo is itself a copy of shen's original work..

You're free to make a merge request with the writeup to monero-site (as is anyone); I just don't like the idea of doing so without author permission

However, it's not my decision

well if anyone knows how to contact shen Ill see what he says

or if this shen.noether⊙gc still works Ill try that

Maybe the library section of monero-site could be used? Then it's not like it's being republished or anything, but simply hosted?

Is that the location you had in mind koe?

I was going to use MRL page since Shen was an MRL guy, I can do Library instead if it makes more sense

I dunno, just spitballing here

Again, not up to me

might be nice to have an 'extra papers' section in the Library; not sure how hairy copyright could get, but from my point of view everything is free game

What do you mean?

like 'here's a list of helpful papers'

By whom? You can't just take random preprints and distribute

lol that's what Im saying :p

ok

anyway, what about putting an UNPUBLISHED: tag?

instead of MRL-0001 or whatever

Those preprint designations are pretty arbitrary

Not sure what would cause a change from "unpublished" to something else

Preprint archives aren't really publication in the traditional sense either

I mean for the hash to point writeup

here is a sample using imgbb to share image ibb.co/2qxhsqh

btw email sent to shen noether was returned, looks like dead address

I like that presentation

Doesn't imply a new publication

ok! thanks :) Ill make the PR

koe: starting the abstract with "I discuss..." is not optimal. Who is "I" to the visitor? I suggest to use more impersonal wording like "discussion about..." and maybe add "by -author-" at the end

it's directly out of the document; am I allowed to edit it?

The author uses "I" frequently in the paper

It's fairly nonstandard

i'm afraid that would create some confusion. It also gives the feeling the author themselves published the paper

I can change abstract -> summary, and write something decent

Ah, so you mean write a new summary that includes the author name

hows this ibb.co/8mkLncQ

Good summary

That's better IMO
