We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you?

English-language usage in affiliations in scholarly papers is less than ideal (would prefer a publication of the body itself) but they're utterly consistent across authors and publications.

I noticed that many Brazilian universities don't have an infobox, but do have a logo or photo; let's create a bare-bones infobox when necessary, e.g.,
