References section and examples

The Research data link (in the wiki body text, not the Reference list) does not seem to be very relevant as it is essentially just another Preferred File Formats page - and their preferred formats differ from ours. The only additional information is that it discusses proprietary vs open formats.

I actually think the entire Data Files section is irrelevant and should be removed. As we've already run into this with the Supplementary/Supporting materials, people wouldn't really be submitting their research data to cIRcle. I think our file format wiki should only provide information on the types of projects we'd accept to avoid confusion.

Maybe there's some confusion or I'm misunderstanding. We do accept Data Files. The document I provided to you regarding the supplementary materials issue explains when you would use cIRcle for data v. Dataverse https://wiki.ubc.ca/images/7/7a/CIRcleDataverse_Data_Guidelines_2.0.pdf We actually have a standing task, you and I, to build that into a wiki. If we do that, we can link it to the Data section so it's more relevant but if I'm missing the point, let me know:)

Nope, you are correct and I misunderstood! (was in ETD-brain rather than all of cIRcle)

re: Research data link - I think this is still relevant because it covers more about open and proprietary file formats. So I think this is a good directional link for data file submitters as I assume we'd want to point them to the RDM site which will have more specific info than what our general format guide offers.
