Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# ACL Supplementary Use this when splitting an ACL paper between body, appendix, and archive. The governing ARR principle: **reviewers are not required to consider material in appendices or supplements**, so anything decision-critical that lives only there is effectively invisible. ## The ACL page anatomy ```text [ content pages: 8 long / 4 short ] <- the reviewed argument lives here [ Limitations (REQUIRED, unlimited) ] <- after conclusion, outside page count [ Ethics statement (optional) ] [ References (unlimited) ] [ Appendices (unlimited, same PDF) ] <- optional reading for reviewers + separate .tgz/.zip archive <- software / data supplement ``` Missing Limitations is a desk-reject condition; treating it as one throwaway sentence is a review-stage penalty even when it passes the gate. ## What must not leave the body - The main results table and the headline comparison. - Task definition and enough of the method that a reviewer can judge novelty. - At least a summary of the error analysis — a pointer-only error analysis reads as not having one. - Human-evaluation design in one paragraph: raters, items, agreement. - The experimental setup at reproduction-outline level; full grids

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill acl-supplementary --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
