[Related Literature]
Luckily, around the globe, there are many activities to link data and publications or to foster replication of scientific research. Below we list some papers in English and a few in German that are dealing with the topic of reproducible research in economics and beyond, data policies in journals and other aspects. We list only a few papers published on these topics.
