Summary of Changes
Hello @mikewolfd, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!
This pull request introduces a new event page for the Civic Hack DC 2025 hackathon, updates the Open Data DC Showcase event page, and improves the styling and content of the events listing page. Additionally, it includes minor content and formatting updates to several project pages to enhance clarity and consistency.
Highlights
- Event Pages: Created a new event page for 'Civic Hack DC 2025' with details about the hackathon, including its purpose, partners, goals, and schedule. Also, modified the 'Open Data DC Showcase' event page to use the 'events' layout and updated its content.
- Layout Changes: Modified the 'events' layout to remove the date and location from the hero section and to use the page's content directly instead of the description.
- Project Pages: Updated several project pages (_projects) to improve descriptions, correct minor grammatical errors, and standardize the 'Come Join Us' section.
- Events Listing: Modified the events listing page (events.md) to use a new card style for displaying events, including event descriptions and updated styling.

The word "detect" should be "detects" to agree with the singular subject "software".

There should be a non-breaking space (i.e. ) after the em dash to improve readability.

| <p>The Campaign Legal Center wants to <strong>identify states and counties which have suspicious patterns in voter registration or voting</strong>, so it can take legal action to remedy the problems. For example, one state had an unusually high rate of rejection for voter registration applications submitted at public service offices, which turned out to be because of a glitch in the self-service kiosks used at public service offices in that state.</p> | ||
| <p>The current process the Campaign Legal Center uses is to <strong>identify the variables that they are interested in the EAVS raw data file and codebook</strong>. Then they copy and paste the relevant columns into a new Excel spreadsheet. In order to calculate the voter registration rejection rates they are interested in, they use Excel formulas (for example, dividing the column that contains the number of applications rejected by the sum of the column that contains number of applications accepted and the column that contains the number of applications rejected). Then they use the Excel subtotal feature to aggregate the data by state, since the raw data is only presented by county (although one of their interns wrote an R script to add up the county totals to get state totals). If they want to calculate how rates have changed, they copy and paste the relevant columns from the Excel spreadsheets they made for previous surveys into the current year spreadsheet.</p> | ||
| <p>One of the major pain points is that all of this copying and pasting, aside from being labor intensive, can result in human error. Also, it is difficult for the Campaign Legal Center attorneys to find what they are looking for in the Excel spreadsheet. Thus, the Campaign Legal Center needs <strong>Civic Tech volunteers to help them with data analysis and visualization.</strong></p> | ||

Change "that" to "with" for better readability.

Code Review
This pull request introduces a new event page for "Civic Hack DC 2025" and refactors the main events listing page and its corresponding layout. The new event page and the updated events listing page embed large blocks of CSS and JavaScript directly within the markdown files, which is not ideal for maintainability. There are critical correctness issues in the _layouts/events.html file and the events.md file, where image paths are either broken due to missing front matter variables or hardcoded. There is also some dead code in the new event page's CSS and JavaScript that should be cleaned up.

The <img> tag relies on page.image and page.image_alt_text from the page's front matter. These fields are not present in the new _events/civichackdc.md, which will result in a broken image. Add the image and image_alt_text fields back to the front matter of all event pages, or wrap it in a conditional to only render if page.image is present.

The image source for upcoming events is hardcoded to hero-image-hackathon.png. This will cause all upcoming events to display the same image. Use a variable from each event's front matter, such as event.image.

Embedding styles directly in the markdown file with a <style> tag reduces maintainability. Consider moving page-specific styles into a separate CSS file (e.g., in the assets/css directory) and linking to it from the layout to improve code organization and reusability.

The CSS rule for .timeline-item appears unused, and the corresponding JavaScript on line 212 also targets non-existent elements. Remove this dead code to improve clarity and reduce file size.

The use of presentational tags like <b> and <i>, as well as <br/> for spacing, is discouraged. Use CSS classes for styling (e.g., font-weight: bold) and margins/padding for spacing to improve the separation of content and presentation.

Embedding scripts directly in the HTML makes the code harder to manage, debug, and reuse across different pages. Place JavaScript code in external .js files (e.g., in assets/js) and include them in the page layout.

Embedding these styles in a <style> tag reduces maintainability. Move these styles to a shared CSS file to improve code organization and reusability.
