We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

This semester I will be teaching an undergraduate course on 
Quantitative Methods in Linguistic Research. One of the major 
recurring themes of this course will be best practices in the visual 
display of linguistic data/results, and I'd like to model good behavior 
with as many examples of elegant, effective graphs as I can find. 

To that end, I am making a Call for Awesome Linguistics Plots. What's 
your favorite graphical display of linguistic data? Suggestions from any 
subfield are welcome. Please send article or book citations to me at 
jnycz at reed.edu; I will post a summary of responses at a later time.

Many thanks for your input!
