Hey @zedomel regarding persistent identifiers (PIDs), due to their importance for FAIR, I think we could make an additional comment here:

"Persistent Identifier At the moment, REBIPP does not generate PIDs for published datasets."

I noticed in the pilots that many of the datasets do not have a persistent identifier themselves (some of them just have the DOI of the publication they are related with). This is a problem from the FAIR point of view, since the dataset as a separate resource should be able to "stand alone", which means it should have it's own PID. In this case, REBIPP not generating the PID would not be a problem of REBIPP, since it could just reuse the existing ones if the data owners generated them. As many researchers are not aware of that, I think we could include here that we encourage people to publish their data in open data repositories to get a PID, such as Zenodo, GigaScience database, DataHub, etc.

Please let me know your thoughts on this and I can elaborate some text for you to add to the cookbook.

Agreed. Can you elaborate that, please?
