Individual skill
apsr-tables-figures
Use when building tables and figures for an American Political Science Review (APSR) manuscript so exhibits are self-contained, accessible, and count toward the word budget correctly. APSR word counts include tables, figures, and printed footnotes, so exhibits must earn their space. Designs exhibits; it does not run the analysis.

# Tables & Figures (apsr-tables-figures)
Exhibits are where an expert reviewer checks whether the result is real. At APSR they also **cost
words**: the word count "includes tables, figures, and footnotes that appear in the published text"
(it excludes the reference list and online appendices). So every exhibit must pull its weight.
## When to trigger
- Designing the main results table/figure or a key descriptive exhibit
- Deciding what belongs in the article vs. the online appendix
- A reviewer found an exhibit unclear, mislabeled, or non-self-contained
- Trimming to the word cap by moving exhibits to the appendix
