Following the discussion with Renzo Huber at Aperture Neuro, Aperture added the following to the author guidelines:
"For data documentation, it is advised to use the BIDS format (https://bids.neuroimaging.io/). It is recommended that the authors check the respective box in the submission form. It is recommended that authors use ‘BIDS’ as one of the key-words of the manuscript. And it is recommended that authors mention the version of the BIDS validator that was used to ensure BIDS compatibility."
This is a good example for other journals and editorial boards and we should document it on our website as a recommendation for journals.
