Your new package pull request does not meet the guidelines for auto-merging. Please make sure that you have read the General registry README and the AutoMerge guidelines. The following guidelines were not met:

• Package name similar to 1 existing package.
  1. Similar to WignerSymbols. Damerau-Levenshtein distance 1 is at or below cutoff of 2. Damerau-Levenshtein distance 1 between lowercased names is at or below cutoff of 1.

Note that the guidelines are only required for the pull request to be merged automatically. However, it is strongly recommended to follow them, since otherwise the pull request needs to be manually reviewed and merged by a human.

After you have fixed the AutoMerge issues, simple retrigger Registrator, which will automatically update this pull request. You do not need to change the version number in your Project.toml file (unless of course the AutoMerge issue is that you skipped a version number, in which case you should change the version number).

If you do not want to fix the AutoMerge issues, please post a comment explaining why you would like this pull request to be manually merged. Then, send a message to the #pkg-registration channel in the Julia Slack to ask for help. Include a link to this pull request.

Since you are registering a new package, please make sure that you have also read the package naming guidelines: https://julialang.github.io/Pkg.jl/dev/creating-packages/#Package-naming-guidelines-1

Hi,

I would like to circumvent the package naming distance problem for this package, because the similarity to the existing WignerSymbols.jl is by design. There is a branch of mathematics that consists of q-deforming existing notions, leading to so-called q-numbers, q-factorials, etc. I specifically want to define q-WignerSymbols, stemming from the q-deformation of SU(2), for which the original wigner symbols are defined. As such I would argue that this name is chosen rather well, and might deserve an exception to the naming rule.

I agree that it is incredibly unfortunate that in this case Q and W are incredibly close together on most physical keyboards, but I guess the actual chance of mistyping might be rather small.

Thanks for your understanding!

Can you make sure that there is a usage example, either in the README or the Documentation?

The two documentation badges in the README currently have a 404 error.
