Wow, someone made a page for GRIM! edit

Hello, Smurrayinchester, and thanks for creating this great page! James and I are flattered!

A thought: the last sentence of the first paragraph currently ends with "following increased awareness of the replication crisis in some fields of science." That doesn't feel quite right. Clearly there is some kind of link with the replication crisis, but the latter is mostly about bad research practices, whereas GRIM is more about problems in scientific reporting in general, ranging from minor sloppiness to outright fraud --- which are both arguably orthogonal to replicability. We're not aware of any relation between GRIM problems and replicability (I am actually involved in a project to test this at the moment, but I'm not expecting a huge correlation). So maybe that sentence could be improved, but I'm not sure how, and I hate trampling over other people's work without good reason, especially since I agree with James (https://twitter.com/jamesheathers/status/921350809161555968) that you have done a first-class job here.
