gmolau··on Software Projects and Heroes: Lessons Learned from GitHub Projects
Not trying to start an argument over words, but that seems a bit unfair to the authors. Their title promised they would analyze 1100 projects, and that is what they did. Being accused of misleading or even linkbaiting their readers by (let's be honest) armchair scientists imho doesn't reflect well on this platform.

This was my first submission here, but is it really helpful to change the title of a published research paper? Just because some commenters didn't like it, and at the cost of this discussion now being harder to find when people google the paper?
