Issue with a graph that you added
[edit]Hey Leo, I'm CircleAdrian and I made a graph of debt as a % of GDP by president since 1977 [[1]] and added it to the page National debt by U.S. presidential terms. O18 then removed it from the page because your graph was already on there, and your graph goes back further. But your graph only shows debt held by the public (not total debt, the more relevant figure), and it only goes through about 2007 (when the public debt alone was more $4 trillion less than it is now).
Is it possible for you to update this graph? Do you still have the original file & data file for it? CircleAdrian (talk) 02:35, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
Graph creation process?
[edit]Hi, Leo, I have a question about your graph, too.
I'd like to do a similar graph of total US Corporate Profits, by quarter, with shadings for which political party was in the Oval Office at the time. What process did you use to turn your tabular data into a graph? And, was creating an SVG format image part of the initial process, or was that a separate step?
Thanks!
