WSDM Skills

A 12-skill depth pack for WSDM (ACM International Conference on Web Search and Data Mining): venue fit, EasyChair submission audit, the no-rebuttal review reality, camera-ready via ACM production, artifacts and reproducibility for log-driven research, appendix-inclusive page budgeting, writing style, related work, experiments, and the single-cycle calendar. Grounded in the WSDM 2026 CFP (19th edit

Install

npx skillmds@latest add plugin:brycewang-stanford/wsdm-skills

One command, no setup. In Claude Code it lands as a managed plugin you can enable, disable or remove with /plugin. On any other agent it installs the 11 skills into that agent's own folder.

Or inside Claude Code

In the Plugins tab, add this marketplace:

skillmds/skillmd
/plugin install brycewang-stanford-wsdm-skills@skillmd

Adds the marketplace once; later plugins need the second line only.

Or install by hand

Download the plugin and unzip its skills/ folder into your agent's skills directory. Works with every agent, no CLI needed.

Skills in this plugin

▌
Wsdm Submission · brycewang-stanford
Use when auditing a WSDM submission before the August deadlines - EasyChair setup, the abstract-then-paper week, the appendix-inclusive page budget, the required ethical-considerations section, anonymization that survives Associate-Chair metadata visibility, and desk-reject exposure at a no-rebuttal venue.

▌
Wsdm Experiments · brycewang-stanford
Use when designing or auditing the evaluation of a WSDM paper - offline ranking and recommendation metrics with bias controls, temporal-split protocols for interaction logs, baseline selection from recent WSDM/SIGIR/KDD editions, ablations that isolate the mechanism, efficiency reporting, and online-evidence framing.

▌
Wsdm Camera Ready · brycewang-stanford
Use when preparing a WSDM camera-ready after acceptance - de-anonymization order, ACM rights and TAPS production into the Digital Library proceedings, CCS concepts and keywords, page-allowance verification, artifact link restoration, and registration/presentation duties at a single-track winter conference.

▌
Wsdm Related Work · brycewang-stanford
Use when positioning a paper against prior literature for WSDM - locating the work inside WSDM's own research lineages (click models, unbiased LTR, sequential recommendation, community detection), contrasting against SIGIR/KDD/WWW/CIKM/RecSys neighbors, venue-misattribution traps, and compressing the section for the tight page budget.

▌
Wsdm Supplementary · brycewang-stanford
Use when deciding what goes where in a WSDM submission whose appendices count inside the page cap - triage between the 9-page body, the uncounted references and ethics section, and the cited external repository; compression tactics for proofs, prompts, and hyperparameter tables under WSDM's historically tight budget.

▌
Wsdm Writing Style · brycewang-stanford
Use when drafting or revising prose for a WSDM paper - the practical-yet-principled register, user-and-platform-grounded framing, self-containment writing for a no-rebuttal review, ethical-considerations craft, limitation sentences that protect borderline papers, and compression into the appendix-inclusive page cap.

▌
Wsdm Review Process · brycewang-stanford
Use when reasoning about how WSDM reviews and decides papers - the hybrid single/double-blind architecture with Associate-Chair metadata visibility, at-least-three PC reviews plus senior PC assessment, the absence of a rebuttal phase, the August-to-October window, and what ~17% selectivity at a single-track venue implies.

▌
Wsdm Author Response · brycewang-stanford
Use when planning author-side communication for WSDM, a venue that historically runs no rebuttal - covers preemptive objection engineering inside the submitted PDF, the narrow legitimate channels to chairs after submission, reading reviews you cannot answer, and converting a rejection into a stronger next-cycle or sibling-venue submission.

▌
Wsdm Reproducibility · brycewang-stanford
Use when hardening the reproducibility of a WSDM paper built on logs, graphs, or user-interaction data - provenance of behavioral datasets, temporal split discipline, click-bias assumptions, seed and variance reporting, privacy-preserving release, and honesty tiers for results no outsider can rerun.

▌
Wsdm Topic Selection · brycewang-stanford
Use when deciding whether a project belongs at WSDM or a neighbor - tests for the web/social-data core and the practical-yet-principled bar, scope coverage from web search and recommendation to social networks and responsible web AI, routing against SIGIR, KDD, WWW, CIKM, RecSys, and ICWSM, and long-versus-short-track fit.

1k repo stars
▌
Wsdm Artifact Evaluation · brycewang-stanford
Use when packaging code, data, and models as evidence for a WSDM paper - anonymous repositories cited in the PDF, the proprietary-log dilemma of web-scale research, public-benchmark substitution tiers, WSDM Cup datasets, and what credible artifact release looks like at a venue without a formal badge process.
