webconf-supplementary
Use when deciding what belongs in the Web Conference (WWW) appendix versus the 8 main pages versus an external artifact, under the single-PDF 12-page ceiling where references and appendix share the tail, reviewers need not read past page 8, and no separate supplementary upload exists in the research tracks.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Web Conference Supplementary Material The Web Conference's 2026 research tracks had **no separate supplementary upload**. Everything travels in one PDF: 8 pages of main paper, then references, then an optional appendix, capped at 12 pages total. That design creates a zero-sum tail — every reference line competes with appendix space — and a hard rhetorical rule: reviewers are told they need not read past page 8, so the appendix can *support* belief but never *create* it. ## The three-container model | Container | Budget | Reviewer contract | Right contents | |---|---|---|---| | Main paper | 8 pages | Read and judged | Claims, method, headline evidence, limitations | | PDF tail | 12 − 8 − |refs| pages | Optional reading | Proofs, pseudo-code, protocol, extra tables | | External artifact | unlimited | Reached only via link | Code, data manifests, full logs | The tail is the scarcest resource most teams misbudget. A survey-flavored web paper with 90 references can eat 2.5+ pages, leaving under 1.5 pages of appendix; a theory-flavored one with 35 references gets nearly 4. Count your tail *before* promising appendix sections to co-authors. ## What earns tail space (and what does not) E
- The three-container model
- What earns tail space (and what does not)
- Compression order when the PDF is over 12
- Anonymized linking pattern
- Worked budget: one paper, two viable splits
- Cross-track variation
- Pre-flight audit
- Output format
What does the webconf-supplementary skill do?
Use when deciding what belongs in the Web Conference (WWW) appendix versus the 8 main pages versus an external artifact, under the single-PDF 12-page ceiling where references and appendix share the tail, reviewers need not read past page 8, and no separate supplementary upload exists in the research tracks.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill webconf-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 984 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.
