If one wants to begin a mathematical investigation, but is wondering about the appropriate form and using which formulae/algorithms to conduct it, which is the appropriate forum? I'm thinking that the question is likely to be closed on the main Math.SE forum for being primarily opinion based, so my contention was the best place is Math.SE Meta...
My original question was very basic, as I was just wondering if the Katz distribution algorithm is the best one for creating a matrix of influence based on fame, specifically Facebook fame, and if it would be useful to supplement this with additional algorithms as Katz seems too basic.
