NumPy default citation
Hi, everyone I see that the NumPy homepage does not have a "Citation" section. Furthermore, on scipy.org, the default NumPy citation points to a short summary paper that I wrote with Gael V & Stephen C. While it's a reasonable introduction to three core concepts behind NumPy, attribution should certainly go to Travis & the community. Shall we add a citation to Travis's "Guide to NumPy (2nd ed.)" on both pages? Best regards Stéfan

+1 for changing the recommended citation to Guide to NumPy now. I do think that we're kind of wasting those citations though. I'm not an academic, but for those contributors who are, citations of a paper that is indexed (counts towards h-index etc.) can be very important. So probably we should find the time to write a paper, with Travis still as first author but with all core devs & major contributors on it. Ralf
