Additional tips and guidance for research

Once you've created a user account and added yourself to the Digital Rights Data Sprint Research Group, you can get started on your research:

From your Project page, find your company, and click the “Research” button next the company to begin.

• If you don’t see the source you need, add a new source. Tag the company to the source, and *important*, tag it with the relevant “Report Type” which you can select from the drop down. This will ensure the source is pulled into your research page.

• Watch the tutorial video if you get hung up on any of the technical details around using the platform.

• Add values that answer the metric questions, citing sources, indicating page numbers where you found the answers, and providing as much contextual information you think necessary to support others that will be looking at your data.

Trouble-shooting

• Entered a wrong value? Double-click the value, then click the edit icon at top right. Change your value, click Submit.

• Error message, or Wagn Hitch? Submit a Ticket and our development team will do their best to resolve the issue in a timely manner. Some errors are temporary, so you may want to just attempt the action a second or third time.
