wber-replication-package

Use when assembling the data and code replication package for a The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) manuscript to meet WBER's condition-of-publication data/code release, the data availability statement with a DOI repository link, and the realities of restricted developing-country data. Builds the deposit and README; it does not run the analysis or write the paper.

# Replication Package & Data Policy (wber-replication-package)

## When to trigger

- The paper is empirical and headed toward acceptance (or you are building the package early)
- You need to write the data availability statement and the DOI repository link for the title page
- Some data are restricted, proprietary, or governed by a national statistics office and you must plan the deposit around that
- An R&R asks you to make data and code available
- You want to know what "condition of publication" actually requires here

## Why this is a WBER signature

WBER's most distinctive, stable policy is **transparency as a condition of publication**: authors must, where ethically and legally possible, **publicly release all data and the software code** underlying a published paper. By repute WBER is the only development *field* journal that routinely publishes data and code, and this fits the broader World Bank reproducible-research push. The manuscript must carry a **data availability statement** — on the title page / author-affiliation footnote — with a **persistent (preferably DOI) link** to the data in a repository (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准; verify exact wording on the OUP author guidelines). Build the package as you analyze; do not treat it as an acceptance-day formality.
