commres-transparency-and-data
Use when preparing the transparency, open-science, and reproducibility materials for a Communication Research (CR) manuscript — data-availability statement, deposited data/code/materials, preregistration, and the restricted-data path. Prepares the materials; it does not waive requirements.

# Transparency & Data (commres-transparency-and-data) CR is a quantitative, social-scientific journal, and its reviewers increasingly expect the materials that let others scrutinize how the numbers were produced. SAGE supports a **data-availability statement** and open-practices options; build the statement and supporting materials **as you write** so submission and any open-practice claim go smoothly. Confirm the journal's current wording on the SAGE author page (待核实 on exact policy). ## When to trigger - Drafting the **data-availability statement** - Deciding whether to share data, code, and materials, or to preregister - Preparing a **preregistration** / pre-analysis plan for a prospective design (note it in the cover letter) - Data cannot be fully shared (privacy, ethics, platform/legal restrictions) and you need the path forward ## What CR / SAGE expects (verify current wording on the policy page) 1. **Data-availability statement.** State where the data are (repository + identifier), under what conditions they can be accessed, and — if they cannot be shared — **why**, with instructions for how others might obtain them. 2. **Open practices (where pursued).** - **Open data** — d

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill commres-transparency-and-data --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
