The numbers in the article and the numbers in your spreadsheet differ. The article contains analysis and categorization that your spreadsheet lacks. The data in your spreadsheet come from a public dataset, as I'm sure the data from the article do. Github stars are not a novel metric. I don't see why the author would need to cite you.

The reason I was suspicious is that the methodology for determining GitHub stars by year is not trivial, and it is not described in the post, and other comments in this thread questioned it. I removed the OP.
