04-quality-control anomalous spreadsheet tab reference about spreadsheet-ecology-lesson HOT 5 CLOSED

Yes, a relic of a past version of the lesson! I confirmed this with @tracykteal - I ran into the same issue while preparing for a workshop today :). Tracy says she doesn't teach this lesson any more, so perhaps it should be removed; OR, some fake data created and added to the spreadsheet...?

To show sort, I created a third sheet with all the data (not totally cleaned up), just copied and pasted to create. Then I used that to do sort, to show finding outliers and other issues.

yeah, that was my plan too :).

As far as I can tell, this lesson no longer references a "1980" tab, but it does have the line "Select the plot_id column" in the instructions for data validation. None of the three tabs have a "plot_id" column, but the 2013 tab has a "Plot" column (three of them actually). This should be updated to clearly indicate the tab that the learner should be looking at and change the variable name from "plot_id" to "Plot". Should we also tell the learner to apply this validation step to all three "Plot" columns?

Fixed with #149
