Information is provided answering short form
Separately for each data source
Authors may add/edit information at any time
For peer review, information is anonymized
Edits post-publication have track-changes on
WHAT IS IT FOR?
Hopefully will induce norm of documenting results-provenance, making scientific fraud very difficult
  Disclosing roles in data analysis
  • Gives credible credit where it is due
  • May induce norm of code-review in science
Transparency helps detect honest errors
