Overview:

This repository contains all the Markdown or R Markdown source files for articles on the COS main site. Authors are welcome to contribute by following the submission guidelines found at https://cosx.org/contribute/. For the editorial department, please refer to the submission guidelines and install the blogdown package in R. Review process: if you are a new author (refer to the existing author list), please contact the author to provide a photo, personal introduction, and article summary. If the author does not send a pull request (PR) on their GitHub, please ask the editor for assistance and then proceed with the online review. Pay attention to any typos, errors, or other structural issues and communicate with the author for revisions. Main site: Short links (slug option in YAML metadata): concise and straightforward, no need to translate the article title word by word. Categories (categories option): select up to three categories that are most relevant to the article, arranged from most to least related (i.e., the first category should best represent the article's section). Tags (tags option): the more, the better. In RStudio, you can use the Update Metadata plugin to select categories and tags from the dropdown menu, avoiding the unnecessary creation of new categories or tags manually. Generally, avoid creating new categories, but new tags can be decided as needed. Indicate: author's name (author option), review and editor's name (meta_extra option). For setting YAML metadata, refer to this example article. After the PR is merged, the article will be automatically published (usually within two minutes). Once the article is visible on the homepage, follow the instructions here to post on the COS forum and insert the post ID into the forum_id option of the article. WeChat: mark the article as original, paying attention to font formatting and indicating the author, reviewer, and editor. Add a copyright statement at the end of the article and include a link to the main site. After editing, communicate with the original author and reviewer. Keep the main site and WeChat synchronized. Use clear screenshots for the WeChat formula section.
