Are the LHC researchers that analyse the detector readout on the fly
without ever storing the data also guilty of malpractice? Hardcore.
Just a few more years, a few more Eiger detectors, a few more serial
beamlines, a few more clusters and clouds, and a few more DIALS-style
programmers, before MX too throws in the towel and starts trusting
real-time processing and stops bothering with storing "raw" images.

Dear Sergei,
Re “all”. As a researcher my perspective is that one’s funding agency
requirement for a data management plan will be the core of what you
would need to follow. Your employer may have additional policies and
requirements placed on you as an employee. Eg the UK funding agency
EPSRC requires data be retained for 10 years. My employer, University
of Manchester, has a policy which regards data loss as research
malpractice.
Central facility data retention policies vary from facility to
facility so you would need to check ie for the ones you use.
For publication IUCr encourages raw data underpinning a publication be
archived and its doi cited. That doi can also be entered into the
relevant PDB deposition.
Best wishes,

Dear All,
I believe this question may be of some interest.
In the past, we always stored all raw data ever collected by the lab.
With the recent advances, such as
(a) automated/on-the-fly processing offered by some (European)
synchrotrons, and
(b) an ongoing discussion on centralized raw data archiving,
I wonder if it is time to revise the strict policy of keeping all data
(before we invest in a new NAS system... )
Best wishes,
