HI Jacob Yes, I got this - and I appreciate the benefit of Rmeas for dealing with measuring agreement for small-multiplicity observations. Having this *as well* is very useful and I agree Rmeas / Rpim / CC-half should be the primary “quality” statistics. However, you asked if there is any

I asked an editor at a prominent journal to change the template file, mentioning the consensus among crystallographers about the matter, but they did not seem willing. Maybe someone with more name-recognition would be more effective. Or a circulated letter from a number of prominent

I find the lack of reporting statistics of the low resolution bins unfortunate! Most statistics in Table 1 report the average across all resolutions or just the high resolution reflection shell. With respect to Rmerge, the agreement between the most intense (low resolution) symmetry related

Agree although i usually look to CC1/2. Rmeas makes more sense than Rmerge but- most software reports both, so cant you just provide Rmeas yourself Probably simpler to persuade journals to alter the Table 1 requirements than get all developers to comment those lines out! Eleanor On 4 July

I suggested replacing Rmerge/sym/cryst with Rmeas, not Rpim. Rmeas is simply (Rmerge * sqrt(n/n-1)) where n is the number of measurements of that reflection. It's merely a way of correcting for the multiplicity-related artifact of Rmerge, which is becoming even more of a problem with data sets

HI Jacob Unbiased estimate of the true unmerged I/sig(I) of your data (I find this particularly useful at low resolution) i.e. if your inner shell Rmerge is 10% your data agree very poorly; if 2% says your data agree very well provided you have sensible multiplicity… obviously depends on
