Our paper investigating reproducibility potential in ecological journals without a code-sharing policy is now @PeerComJournal 📰 https://t.co/F1mP8f1HiH 💻 https://t.co/RNaN3V4i1d We've shared our results already ( https://t.co/D1oppxkJ0b), so we won't bother you again. But 👇

#SORTEE2025 Conference is about to begin! We’re thrilled to announce our first plenary presentation: Advancing Ecology and Evolutionary Research in the Global South - African context by Dr. Israel Borokini You can still register and find more info at: https://t.co/A030Cgrn6N

Our second plenary presentation is about to start! #SORTEE2025 We're excited to have Prof. Simine Vazire who will give a talk titled ‘Where are the Self-Correcting Mechanisms in Science?’ You can still register and find more info on the talk at: https://t.co/A030Cgrn6N

If you are like us and can't wait for SORTEE's conference to start, you can warm up and get ready for #SORTEE2025 by (re)watching plenary talks and remarks from past conferences on our YouTube channel:

📣 From Hackathon to Pre-registered study Researchers assessed data & code-sharing policies in 275 ecology & evolution journals, and compliance in #ProcB & @Ecology_Letters. Clear policies boost sharing. Started as a SORTEE 2023 hackathon! 🔗

@ASanchez_Tojar @RSocPublishing @Martin_J_M_34 @EliSJThore @SLUwildresearch @dom_roche @sortecoevo Plus, check out this new post on the @RSocPublishing blog about the paper, its origins, and our fearless lead-authors! 👉

Only 38% of ecology and evolution journals mandate data sharing and just 27% mandate code sharing New paper out today on how to fix this! Big thanks to Edward Ivimey-Cook @ASanchez_Tojar Nick Moran @RSocPublishing 👉 https://t.co/dVkYp27SSj

🎉 From Hackathon to Pre-registered Study Started at SORTEE 2023 with 37 participants (now co-authors) assessing journal data/code policies. Pre-registered ( https://t.co/ES9qKOKP8g). Thanks to @sortecoevo, #ProcB & @Ecology_Letters for support & data. 🔗

🔧 Moving Forward Clearer, accessible data/code-sharing policies are key. Researchers, journals, and institutions must collaborate. Recruiting dedicated data editors can help ensure compliance and improve quality. 🔗 https://t.co/BIqSJSn7Wo

📊 What We Found Most journals have data/code-sharing policies, but many lack clarity or enforcement. This gap highlights the need for standard, transparent practices. Initial submission data indicates that policies do indeed increase sharing. 🔗

📣 Hot off the press at Proc B! 🔍 Our study checked data/code-sharing policies in 275 eco/evo journals and compliance in Proc B (n=2,340) & Ecology Letters (n=571). Policies exist, but clarity and strictness vary, affecting reproducibility. 🔗 https://t.co/BIqSJSn7Wo

Introducing "The SORTEE Guidelines for Data and Code Quality Control in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology" The first standardised set of data editor guidelines. Led by SORTEE with input from numerous data editors across ecology and evolution. 🔗 https://t.co/hOYnS10vlP

SORTEE Meet-up at ESEB 2025 – Barcelona Come connect with SORTEE members and fellow ESEB attendees who share an interest in open, reliable, and transparent evolutionary biology. 📅 Wednesday, 20 August (tomorrow!) 🕜 1:30 PM 📍 Expo Area – look for the SORTEE t-shirts!

We have therefore broken the guidelines up into 6 discrete stages, that can be optionally adopted Clear signposting by the journal of what data editors check will help increase transparency for authors and readers ...

📣 The SORTEE Guidelines for Data & Code Quality Control in Ecology & Evolutionary Biology are out! 🔗 https://t.co/BM7SVfKrqC Brilliantly led by @joel_l_pick & Ed Ivimey-Cook, with input from 24 amazing data editors Personally, I learned a ton contributing to this project 🙏

🚨Introducing the @sortecoevo Guidelines for Data and Code Quality Control in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology 🚨 https://t.co/VZ43CM7zMv Increasingly E&E journals have data editors. We provide standardised guidelines for these journals and those wanting to recruit data editors🧵
