Link to image publication & analysis checklists about image-processing HOT 2 OPEN

Wow! I want to tell the entire world about this paper!! Thank you for bringing it to our attention, @tobyhodges.

I assume that @joshmoore must be well aware of this work? Thank you for leading this community effort, @schmiedc! I'll continue this conversation on the forum.

I suppose linking out to a resource like this would make most sense towards the end of the lesson

Right. I would even support creating a (short) episode about best practices for publishing images and image analyses! I'll draw a parallel with the Licensing episode in the SWC Git lesson: When teaching this lesson, I would never have time to reach this particular episode, but I would say a few words about its content and refer the learners to the online material.

but perhaps a link to the checklist for image capture & publication could be placed earlier on

I've read the paper from beginning to end and, if I'm not mistaken, it doesn't cover best practices for image capture; for this, the authors point to existing resources (at least in the field of light microscopy): "Existing resources developed by scientists can help researchers to navigate designing microscopy experiments1,2,3 and cover aspects such as sample preparation1, microscope usage1,4, method reporting5,6,7,8 and fluorophore and filter usage9,10."

So, as mentioned above, I think that linking to the checklist for image publication makes more sense towards the end of the lesson.

pinging @datacarpentry/curriculum-advisors-image in case any of you want to share your perspective on this?
