Changes in version 2.1.0 (2025-01-08)                  

  - Added a new multi-modal and multi-platform dataset for testing and
    demonstration purposes (see documentation for "german_elections"
    data).
  - Updated the vignette
  - New function to simulate data

                 Changes in version 2.0.2 (2024-03-29)                  

Edit the function documentation to address specific issues and enhance
clarity. This includes removing obsolete information about
min_repetition in the detect_groups documentation and correcting typos
in the vignettes.

                 Changes in version 2.0.1 (2024-03-18)                  

Fixed a bug that under certain circumstances prevented the number of
shares from being calculated correctly with the accounts_stats function.

                 Changes in version 2.0.0 (2024-01-15)                  

A major release with many important breaking changes. Package users
upgrading to version 2.0.0 should pay attention to the functions
detect_groups and generate_coordinated_network

New features

  - completely reworked the code that generates the coordination
    network. There is now a new function generate_coordinated_network
  - The results from detect_groups can now be subset into "faster"
    subnetworks with the new function flag_speed_share
  - The prep_data function helps to bring other social media data into
    the right shape

Changes

Most changes are related to two areas of improvement: the way how the
coordination network is generated and naming conventions used in this
package

  - detect_coordinated_groups function was renamed to detect_groups,
    alognside we also renamed the min_repetition to min_participation to
    better reflect its meaning. The function generally performs still
    performs the same operation as before.
  - generate_network was removed and replaced with
    generate_coordination_network, which is a completely rewritten
    approach to the network generation.
  - We globally changed the wording of "user" to "account", which is
    more faithful to the theoretical framework of this package. The term
    "account" describes the data much better.
  - Therefore, the column formally named id_user (found in many
    functions) was now renamed to account_id

Dropped Features

We decided to drop the feature to detect cotweeting behaviour based on
text similarity for this release. In practical applications, the
detect_similar_text function was not performing up to our standards and
we are currently looking into a fresh approach to implement such a
feature.

                        Changes in version 1.4.0                        

This is a minor release adding new features

New features

  - Added detect_similar_text() function that finds tweets based on text
    similarity (cotweets). Refer to the documentation for details.
  - The reshape_tweets() function was extended with the intent =
    "cotweet", which reformats your data to fit in the
    detect_similar_text() function
