Project Summary Factiods: NLG word "only" in conflict with the numbers #1518

Description

@cyriax0

Expected: No conflict between the natural language suggestions and the numbers.

Got: Across all [...] 12% [...] [here] this figure is only 30% [...] among top 10%

Problem: "only" implies the number is low compared to others, but it is high.

Speculation / possibile fix:
I guess the "only" got into it because 30% is a "low" number by itself. So either:

  • Check percentile not the figure itself. "percentile < threshold percentage" (i.e. if better than 40% of projects)
  • Check relation to average not the figure itself. "figure < average"

Full output:

Very well-commented source code

awesome is written mostly in Lua.

Across all Lua projects on Open Hub, 12% of all source code lines are comments.
For awesome, this figure is only 30%.

This very impressive number of comments puts awesome among the top 10% of all Lua projects on Open Hub.

A high number of comments might indicate that the code is well-documented and organized, and could be a sign of a helpful > and disciplined development team.

(edit:)
