<div dir="ltr">Hi Joe,<div>Chiming in late in the game here. Another relevant resource (one mentioned in the LSA panel on this topic from last year) is from when Sally Thomason was editor of Language.

<div>Dear RNLDers</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In just about every linguistics paper I’ve written, I’ve always mentioned which recording an example comes from (with a recording reference and time-codes), or which field notebook an example comes from, if elicited. I always thought that this
practise speaks to the authenticity of the data. I assumed that if such a trail is trackable then you are unlikely to be accused of making stuff up! </div>
<div>I know that there are many other researchers that do this, so I’m wondering there are references to this being best practice, or at least being advisable.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also, turning this around, is it reasonable to expect (in 2017) that researchers writing about an endangered language follow such a protocol, if is in fact a protocol?</div>
<div><br>

<div>Best</div>
