I only need *5* more dataset curations (and to review those 5 plus the open PR) to be done curating #TidyTuesday for 2025! I can definitely do at least one myself, so I just need 4 of you to curate a dataset! Check out github.com/rfordatascie... for #RStats instructions.

What Americans die from and the causes of death the US media reports on.
4 stacked bar charts. showing in short that while heart diseases and cancer constitutes 55% of the causes of death, they receive about 7% of the media coverages. Homicide is under 1% but receives between 42% and 52%. Terrorisme barely registers in the causes of death, but gets between 11% and 18%.

Note: Based on the share of causes of death in the US and the share of mentions for each of the causes in the New York Times, the Washington Post and Fox News. All values are normalized to 100%, so the shares are relative to all deaths caused by the 12 most common causes + drug overdoses, homicides and terrorism. These causes account for more than 75% of deaths in the US.
A "media mention" is a published article in one of the outlets which mentions the cause (e.g. "influenza) or related keywords (e.g. "flu") least twice.
Data sources: Media mentions from Media Cloud (2025); deaths data from the US CDC (2025) and Global Terrorism Index.

Scatterplot of white text and points on a sky-blue background. Shows that the Spring arrival of cranes to HornborgasjΓΆn begins around early-mid March, with the most number arriving around April 1st, and ends around mid-late April. The scatterplot points are in the shape of small white crosses with a slight shadow to give the appearance of a flock of birds.

Multi-panel visualization showing chess player activity and achievements from FIDE data (August-September 2025). The top panel displays four histograms of game activity levels, showing that most players are casual (1-3 games) while fewer are highly active (16+ games). Bottom left shows top 20 rating improvements, led by Plzak, David, with +362 points, with a median of 255.5. Bottom right shows countries with the most titled players, led by Germany (1,004), Spain (702), and Russia (469), with a median of 391 players.

A plot titled "FIDE chess players by country & birth year: Ranking of the top International Chess Federation (FIDE) countries by the number of rated players (Elo rating β©Ύ1400) per age group (year of birth). Number of players shown under each flag (percentage of age group in brackets). Numbers under the flags show the number of players (with percentage of totals in brackets)". The plot resembles a chessboard, with a grayish purple background and the rankings being displayed as country flags on top of the chessboard's squares. In the oldest age brackets (left side), European countries are dominating with Germany, Spain and France having the most players. On the right side with the younger age groups, India is quickly rising to the top, in the youngest age group (2010β2021), Sri Lanka is also up-and-coming.

Two stacked column charts are shown side by side with titles and legend in between.
The left chart shows the changing gender composition of number one songwriting teams over time - around 80% of teams were all-male from the 50s to the 90s, decreasing to under 50% since the 90s.
The right chart shows the changing gender composition of artists (who have achieved number one song) over time. Around 75% were all male in the 50s, down to around 50% in the 2020s.

One chart shows the height distributions of Scottish Munros and Munro Tops by their Gaelic name (Stob, Carn, Beinn, Sgurr and Meall). Stobs are tallest, on average, but have a wide distribution of different heights. In comparison, mealls are the shortest and tend to all be of a similar height.
The second chart shows the number of munros/munro tops by each name type. Beinns are most common and are usually munros rather than munro tops. Carns are second most common and are around 50% munros and 50% munro tops.
Learned a bit of Gaelic for this week's #tidytuesday. There are many names and variations of names for "mountain", "hill", "peak", "point", etc. I used this site to help me classify them: cuhwc.org.uk/resources/me...

William Shakespeare is at the top of the plot with works in 14 languages, followed by Jules Verne at around 10. The bars are filled according to the century the author was active in (ranging from 8th century BCE (Homer) to the 19th century, which is the majority of the bars).

Nine scatter plots of strength vs intelligence arranged in a 3x3 grid of the D&D alignments.
Some observations are:
- Strength and intelligence appear to correlate more for lawful or chaotic monsters than neutral monsters
- Humanoids are mostly true neutral
- Dragons can be good or evil, but are rarely neutral
- Neutral monsters tend to be smaller
It was nice to find some time for #TidyTuesday since starting a new job last month and having far less free time.
As usual I may have overcomplicated things, but I plotted strength vs intelligence by alignment, and made an interactive version: jessjep.github.io/blog/posts/t...

A line plot showing the change in number of car accident fatalities in the USA from 1992 to 2017. The trend line has a wave pattern where there is an increase during the warmer months of the year (where the line is red) and a decrease during the colder months (where the line transitions to blue). Overall, the line is relatively flat. It increases very gradually until around 2006, where it then decreases to the lowest point in 2011, then gradually increasing again to similar levels as 1992.
