Description

By default, when people join the nf-core organisation, their membership is set to be private. This is bad because:

  • We publicise everyone's membership on the website anyway, so it's not really private
  • It means that the team size is very under-represented when viewed by non-members

This is annoying and slightly fiddly to change - only the user themselves is allowed to change it and it requires a bit of clicking.

Although we can't change it for people, we can check the organisation to see who is set to public and spam them until they update their profile.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating how the website handles nf-core organisation data and whether it already accesses GitHub membership information. Done means the organisation can be checked for private memberships and the affected users are prompted to make them public.
