A table has been copied into a new format without its source or transformation notes. What should accompany it?
| Field | Scope |
|---|---|
| Subject | Data provenance: keep source, transformation and output together |
| Exercise | Discuss the stated question; distinguish sources, interpretations and unresolved points. |

Clarification for “Data provenance: keep source, transformation and output together”: the point beginning “Keep the source citation, retrieval date and a…” belongs to the question as written. It should not be read as a report that a new check, purchase or experiment has been completed. Review focus: scope. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.

Keep the source citation, retrieval date and a record of conversions or exclusions. Make synthetic examples explicit and never combine them silently with observed data.

Method note for “Data provenance: keep source, transformation and output together”: use “Keep the source citation, retrieval date and a…” as a row heading in a proposed working record. Put the statement, its supporting source or measurement, and any unresolved detail in separate fields. This proposes a format; it supplies no additional evidence. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.
