Thanks @johenglisch for e3c1eb6, I think that's very nice!
Would it be possible to do the same for the dataests tab?
In general, I think currently new users would probably need a brief explainer at the home tab for what Zenodo concepts, Zenodo records and CLDF datasets are.
I think for a lot of users I know, honestly the CLDF-dataset is probably all they'll need from a meta-CLDF clld web app. It could even be an option to remove the Zenodo concepts and Zenodo records tabs from the web app? Just an idea. If all tabs remain, I think something like this would be useful:
"CLDF-meta contains only datasets that have been released through Zenodo. Authors can publish new versions of their data, this is known as a new Zenodo record tied to the same Zenodo concept. Some CLDF-datasets have many records, for example there are 11 Zenodo records tied to the "CLDF dataset derived from Wichmann et al.'s "ASJP Database". Some CLDF-dataset only have one record, such as "Zero marking and the order of core arguments". You can browse unique Zenodo concepts under the Zenodo concepts tab and unique Zenodo records under the Zenodo records tab. Finally, CLDF-datasets can contain more than one module (e.g. Structure, WordList etc). For example, "CLDF dataset derived from Beijing University's "Chinese Dialect Vocabularies" from 1964" contains both Structure and Wordlist modules. You can find a list of all unique modules in all CLDF-datasets under the tab "CLDF-datasets". Please note, in a few cases one CLDF-dataset is mapped to more than one Zenodo record. This is most likely due to changes in the underlying software processing pipeline. For more on CLDF tables and modules, please see [insert link to formal descriptions] or simplified explanation here."
Did I get that right? If so, I would also suggest changing the name from "CLDF datasets" to "CLDF modules" for the web app tab.
In summary:
- version number for CLDF datasets tab?
- remove Zenodo records tab and Zenodo concepts tabs or introduce explainer paragraph to home tab
- changing name of CLDF datasets tab to CLDF modules?
