To ensure that you understand your own data and to enable others to find, use and properly cite your data, it helps to create README files with ‘documentation’ or ‘metadata’ about the datasets you create.
Use the **[README File Checklist][1]** to create really good, consistent documentation files. By creating README files, your data can be correctly interpreted, by yourself at a later date or by others when sharing or publishing data!
