The criterium for data to be included is that it be data of a publishable form and not preliminary data. Data from conferences often fall into the latter category. If it is possible that data will change following peer review, it may be better to delay HepData submission until after journal acceptance. <p/> -Any text files you send us will be processed into a standard format, which can be seen from the "input" link on any of the existing records. Data submissions provided in text formats closer to the "input" format (<i>not</i> the "plain text" format) can therefore be entered more quickly into the database. You can start by looking at the "input" file for an existing record that is similar to your submitted data. An annotated <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/resource/sample.input">sample input file</a> is available.

It is useful to provide key metadata for each table such as a caption, the process being considered (initial-state and final-state particles), important kinematic cuts, and headers for the x and y columns specifying the quantity with units. Multiple x and y values can be given in the same r ow separated by semicolons and non-existent entries can be indicated by dashes "-". Numerical values should be given with an appropriate and not excessive number of significant figures (in general, a maximum of 4), avoiding giving more decimal places for the errors than the central values.
