{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"DOC: Duplicate examples of AnchoredArtists gallery","articleBody":"The documentation pages at https://matplotlib.org/gallery/axes_grid1/simple_anchored_artists.html and https://matplotlib.org/gallery/misc/anchored_artists.html appear to be nearly duplicates of each other. However, the first one is much more complete, and demonstrates a much less complicated way of achieving he same thing.\r\n\r\nThe first linked page has a `if 1:` \"guard\" while the second one has `if __name__ == '__main__':`. Given the overall trend in the examples, neither seems necessary.\r\n\r\nAn even simpler example, that is fully covered by the other ones, is given in https://matplotlib.org/gallery/userdemo/anchored_box01.html\r\n\r\nMy personal take on this is:\r\n- Keep the content of https://matplotlib.org/gallery/axes_grid1/simple_anchored_artists.html. The other version asks the user to write their own version of the anchored artist classes, even though matplotlib already provides them, and is generally less complete.\r\n- Move it to https://matplotlib.org/gallery/misc/anchored_artists.html since it has nothing to do with axis grids and I'm not even sure how it ended up there.\r\n- Removing the unnecessary import guard.\r\n- Remove https://matplotlib.org/gallery/userdemo/anchored_box01.html entirely.\r\n\r\nI'll be happy to submit a PR if a couple of senior folks approve.\r\n\r\nP.S. The reason for all this is in the comment section of https://stackoverflow.com/a/49933937/2988730, when I realized I was giving somebody incomplete, or possibly outright bad advice.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/madphysicist","@type":"Person","name":"madphysicist"},"datePublished":"2018-04-20T15:26:26.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":8},"url":"https://github.com/11092/matplotlib/issues/11092"}
