Jargon in user-facing text

17 place(s) print a word that only makes sense inside this project. Each line is the text a reader sees.

corpus

means 'everything collected'; say that instead

  • site/assets/app.js: Shown / corpus
  • site/assets/app.js: {visible} of {n} benchmarks shown · {s} sources in corpus

frontier

used here as a section name, not a plain-English word

  • site/assets/app.js: Benchmark Frontier: {n} individual benchmarks from all sources. Dated benchmarks run left to right from 2024. Undated benchmarks remain visible by score. Gol...
  • site/assets/app.js: Pareto: {p} of {n} benchmarks with verified score scales and a recorded height count. Unverified scales do not enter the frontier.
  • site/assets/app.js: Benchmark Frontier
  • site/assets/app.js: Benchmark Frontier chart
  • site/assets/app.js: How to read the frontier
  • site/assets/app.js: Hard frontier
  • site/assets/app.js: Pareto frontier
  • site/assets/app.js: 3D skyline of {n} benchmarks. Time runs left to right from 2022. Earlier dates have a separate segment. Stems show recorded model-card adoption; hollow marks...
  • site/index.html: Benchmark Frontier
  • site/index.html: The side view projects reported scores and the selected counts onto the left wall, leaving out time. The gold staircase compares only benchmarks with verifie...

  • site/assets/app.js: Each linked benchmark counts once for this document. Open its detail to inspect scores, protocols and citations.
  • site/assets/app.js: Scores and citations from model reports. Each score keeps its document, test version, protocol and publication date.
  • site/assets/app.js: Each linked benchmark counts once for this document. Open its detail to inspect scores, protocols and citations.
  • site/index.html: Height uses log1p(count); ticks, tooltips and Pareto use raw counts. The axis covers the full scored 2024+ cohort and stays fixed while filtering. Only decla...
  • site/logos.html: . A family mark such as Claude, Gemini or Grok can override the organization mark. Source chips show where each model appears. Scores, protocols and dates re...

Not every hit is a bug: a term the surrounding sentence defines is fine. Rewrite the ones that assume the reader already knows. Refs #241.
