The last part of the document is intended to provide some examples of how the data are documented, and how easy or difficult it is to follow these.
The current template is:
Survey name (e.g., ANES)
Funding: the ultimate client of the study (Stanford + U Mich with funding from NSF)
Data collection: the organization who collected and documented the data (e.g., Westat for ANES 2016; we all know that different companies and different statisticians have their idiosyncratic ways to describe them; Abt did it in 2012, and probably did it somewhat differently than Westat in 2016).
Host: the organization that hosts the data (ICPSR, a federal agency, IPUMS, academic center on their websites, etc.)
URL: the URL pointing to the methods / technical / weighting report
Rubrics: check each rubric and say "yes/partial/no"
Score: Stas wants to put stars there, up to five starts if a survey ticks all the boxes. Maybe five stars and a plus if they receive bonuses.
