Data citation principles

When analyzing published or externally sourced datasets, always cite the original publication and honor its license/usage terms.

If datasets came from direct author communication, keep explicit permission records and acknowledge data providers in methods or acknowledgments.

When in doubt, over-cite rather than under-cite.
