sci-statistics
Use to enforce Science's statistics and reproducibility reporting — n and replication, test choice and assumptions, effect sizes with uncertainty, multiple-comparison control, randomization/blinding, and pre-registration where relevant.

# Statistics & Reproducibility (sci-statistics)
## When to trigger
- Results report P values but not effect sizes or n.
- "Three independent experiments" is claimed but replication is unclear.
- Multiple comparisons are run with no correction.
- A reviewer is likely to ask "were analyses pre-specified?" and there's no answer.
## The reporting backbone (every quantitative claim)
Each claim needs: **effect size + uncertainty + n + test + what n means.**
- [ ] **n** stated, with the unit of replication (biological vs technical replicates; cells vs animals vs experiments).
