Please feel free to disregard this, I realise that it's a bit late in the game to introduce new fields, but it may be easier to convince linguists to enter linguistics papers if there was a field where one could denote something about the sample that the study used. I.e. "400 Austronesian languages", "200 lgs worldwide sample", Standard Cross-Cultural sample, "dialect study of Zhuang " etc. This could be optional and free-text.
I know its a bit late. Just an idea that came up while discussing how to enter sociolinguistics studies of interest.
