crim-data-and-transparency
Use when preparing the data, replication, and transparency materials for a Criminology (ASC / Wiley) manuscript — data-availability statements, reproducibility packages, preregistration, and handling restricted criminal-justice data under DUAs. Criminology operates under growing open-science norms (Wiley open-science badges, ICPSR/NACJD archiving). Prepares the package; it does not waive requirements.

# Data & Transparency (crim-data-and-transparency) Criminology research increasingly travels with its data and code. Expert reviewers and editors expect that your reported tables and figures could be reproduced. Wiley's general data-sharing guidance requires a Data Availability Statement for research- and synthesis-based articles, while the current Wiley ACT row for *Criminology* lists the journal-specific data-sharing policy field as **No Policy**. Treat that as: prepare a credible statement and package, but do not claim a journal-specific mandatory repository deposit unless the live portal requires it. ## When to trigger - Building the reproducibility/replication package and the data-availability statement - Deciding whether and how to preregister a prospective study - Working with restricted data (juvenile records, NACJD restricted-use, agency administrative data) - A reviewer asked how the analysis can be reproduced or the data accessed ## What to prepare 1. **Data-availability statement.** State where data and code live (e.g., **ICPSR / NACJD**, OSF, a Wiley/Dryad repository) or why they cannot be shared. Use Wiley DAS templates and the live portal wording; do not imply mandat

What does the crim-data-and-transparency skill do?
Use when preparing the data, replication, and transparency materials for a Criminology (ASC / Wiley) manuscript — data-availability statements, reproducibility packages, preregistration, and handling restricted criminal-justice data under DUAs. Criminology operates under growing open-science norms (Wiley open-science badges, ICPSR/NACJD archiving). Prepares the package; it does not waive requirements.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill crim-data-and-transparency --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.
