Creating a FAQ page related to data entry #112

Closed olgavinduskova closed 5 years ago

olgavinduskova commented 5 years ago

Alison suggested it would be nice to have a FAQ page/guidelines for people entering data into templates. Is anyone working on this?

I've listed some of the questions I've asked (and the answers I got from Alison) so far, not sure how frequent they are though: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1g35NllJo6y0GxYXSdCQfGu3YQ1NYrSueCzGYc6KMotc/edit?usp=sharing

Yes! We definitely want to do this. Thanks for the attachment - it's an excellent starting point. I will post the content on the website tomorrow. I already started a page for it, but didn't have enough content, so this will help.

We also discussed organizing this FAQ by "tab" and linking to helpful example templates for each tab.

Feel free to link to any template you found particularly helpful or other FAQ/common convention text here, and I will incorporate into the website.

It looks like Grey and/or Alison got a start on this. I spent some time today cleaning it up and changing the organization somewhat. I also added links to "contribute" page so that this resource is now live. This will obviously be a work in progress. Please feel free to edit the file directly or submit additional questions/answers in this issue, which I can add to the file as needed https://international-soil-radiocarbon-database.github.io/ISRaD/template_faq/

Thanks Corey! I was planning to finish it before posting but other things came up & I got derailed. Thanks to Olga, Kate, & Grey for content too!
