@effigies effigies changed the title Update magnetoencephalography.md [ENH] Clarify MEG empty room text, add links to examples Jan 8, 2024
Comment on lines 512 to 518
In the case of empty-room recordings being associated with multiple subjects and/or sessions (see [Example 1](#example-1)), it is RECOMMENDED to store the empty-room recording inside a subject directory named `sub-emptyroom`.
If a [`session-<label>`](../appendices/entities.md#ses) entity is present, its label SHOULD be the date of the empty-room recording in the format `YYYYMMDD`, that is `ses-YYYYMMDD`.
The `scans.tsv` file containing the date and time of the acquisition SHOULD also be included.
The rationale is that this naming scheme will allow users to easily retrieve the empty-room recording that best matches a particular experimental session, based on date and time of the recording.
It should be possible to query empty-room recordings just like usual subject recordings, hence all metadata sidecar files (such as the `channels.tsv`) file SHOULD be present as well.

In the case of empty-room recordings being collected for the individual experimental session, it is recommended to store the empty-room recording along with that subject and session.
In the case of empty-room recordings being collected for the individual experimental session (see [Example 2](#example-2)), it is RECOMMENDED to store the empty-room recording along with that subject and session.

These additions feel redundant with L509/L510:

If keeping the examples close to the more detailed descriptions makes more sense, maybe we should remove these links from L509/L510 and reword that to be a bit smoother without the examples?

I am impartial as to whether that makes more sense, but I agree that we should not introduce redundancy here.

I got a couple of questions here, so I decided to reinforce the links to the examples. But maybe not that necessary.
What about instead of using "(see Example 1)" as in lines L509/L510, say just "(Example 1)". People often read fast, and a bit of redundancy sometimescan may help.

in BIDS, a session is always "per participant" (that is, you would not have two participants listed in the same session directory)

Suggested change
One empty-room recording per each participant's session, stored within the session directory.

This was to clarify that in the other example (1) you can store under one session the noise recording to be used for multiple participants, but it's true it is redundant. How to store the emptyroom recordings is the thing I typically get the more questions about, as it is very MEG specific not applicable to other modalities, that's why I might have been over redundant in many places :)

One empty-room recording per each participant's session, stored within the session directory.

To avoid redundancies, I have pulled the example descriptions to be under the example subheadings. What do you think @guiomar @effigies?

This is fine. I'm not 100% in favor of including spec language likes SHOULDs and MUSTs in examples, but it doesn't change the meaning of the spec, so if this helps people find the information they need, fine.
