In the citing paper
“Perhaps one reason that the NFL shows the most consistency over time is that, in general, it is the worst at drafting newly eligible players (see Lopez (2016) for comparisons in the drafting ability of each league).”

“Finally, given that per-shot data are missing in easily analysable format, as well as the increased awareness regarding the importance of reproducible scientific research (Peng, 2011), we provide all of our data and code so that future researchers can confirm our results while performing their own analyses.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
