    3 TODO: clarify which of these apply to raw data vs. intermediary data vs. final results / published data.  Also, try to clean this up so it's more cronological : (1) where you got the data from, (2) how you reduced the data, (3) other processing applied. 
     3== Goals : == 
     4 
     5* Ensure that research is reproducible. 
     6* Track information that might affect your analysis 
     7* Make it easier for others to retrieve the data that you used. 
     8* Allow data archives & software authors to find who's using their work, so they can get continued funding.

    16 === Secondary goal: === 
    17         Provide attribution for the data/archives, and software or other tools, so they can justify their continued funding.

    2017== Policy : == 
    21 * Data used in articles should be made publicly available. 
     18 
     19* Data used in articles should be made publicly available by the time of publication. 
    2220* If the data is not already available from an archive, it should be included as a supplement to the article. 
    2321* Observations should be sufficiently described to allow reviewers or other scientists to easily verify the article's claims.

    78                     * eg, "200 arcsec patch centered on AR10943" vs. "200 arcsec wide by 400 arcsec high centered on ... xSun, ySun" - 
    79 ‘... at 400 xSun,-600 ySun’ ;  ‘... at 45W60N’ 
     76                    * eg, "200 arcsec patch centered on AR10943" vs. "200 arcsec wide by 400 arcsec high centered on ... " 
     77                    * ... "centered on 400 xSun,-600 ySun" vs  "centered on 45W60N"
