The "Arcticae horulae" dictionary of German borrowings in Slovenian
The "Arcticae horulae" dictionary of German borrowings in Slovenian was a project of continuous development, from a private amateur collection of German borrowings in the Slovenian language, via an art exhibition of the collection in the National and University Library of Slovenia in 1995, to the publication of the printed edition in 1997, which generated unexpected media interest and was sold out in a just few months. This development process connected the fields of art and science and highlighted the artist's responsibility: the artistic modes (e.g. travesty, performance) misdirected the public to treat the booklet as a reference dictionary. This is the reason that the author takes the end of her project to be the 8th of January 1998, when Marko Snoj, a well-known Slovenian etymologist, published a very negative review of the dictionary in the "Književni listi" supplement of the "Delo" newspaper.
As the printed edition was sold out, and to document the Arcticae horulae project, the http://www.arcticae-horulae.si site was created in 2005. In addition to the PDF of the printed edition of the dictionary booklet, the site contains also the chronology of the project, and various publications about it.
In 2017 CLARIN.SI supported the conversion of the PDF to a TEI XML encoding (using the module for dictionaries, https://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/DI.html), in order to provide a structured digital edition of this interesting resource. In the process of correcting OCR errors in the XML, some mistakes in the original were also corrected. Note, however, that the conversion to the structured XML was performed automatically, so various structure errors most likely remain in the dictionary.
This repository item archives the Arcticae horulae project, and contains the mirror of the www.arcticae-horulae.si site (as of November 2020), the PDF of the printed dictionary, the dictionary in a TEI XML encoding, and a simple HTML rendering of the dictionary, which attempts to preserve the formatting of the original

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Dictionary of living Slovenian "Razvezani Jezik" (The Unleashed Tongue)
Launched in December 2004 by the Domestic Research Society, Razvezani jezik (The Unleashed Tongue) is the first user-generated online dictionary of spoken Slovenian language. As a Wiki project, it allowed every visitor to add new entries freely. It quickly gained popularity and was labelled "the most entertaining Slovenian dictionary" by the media. Almost 3,000 authors belonging to different generations and subcultures contributed slang, neologisms and similar words and phrases from all Slovene regions.
In 2019 the publisher decided to close outside edits to the dictionary and to archive its content in several ways, and this repository entry is one of them. The dictionary was exported and stored in XML, structured according to the accompanying DTD. Each dictionary entry includes the headword, a list of its keywords, a list of all revisions of the entry, which then contain the paragraphs with the text of the entry, and optional user comments.
The authors of this resource would like to thank Luka Prinčič, Marko Mrđenović, Milan Erič, Damijan Kracina, Inge Pangos, Jani Pirnat, Polona Tavčar, Darja Vuga, Jaka Železnikar, Kaja Dolar, Anna Ehrlemark, Vasja Lebarič, and Ajdin Bašić for their invaluable help in making the Razvezani jezik project a success
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
